It is an effect that it will be difficult to overcome for that, after It is not unnatural some such rumors, the sword of Damocles. trans formed into a heavy axe should be seen hang ing over the campus. Coming in the midst of a college term, honest work and honest effort is being crippled by it. time. Origin of these stories is stoutly denied by members of the state board of agriculture. Whatever the source, it is indeed too bad that it cannot be located and the promiscuous re ports stopped. Not only is it unfortunate from the standpoint of college work and its effect upon members of her staff, but it lays a decided handicap upon the incoming president. The problems with which he will be confront ed will be numerous enough without having added to them that of a broken down morale in the teaching and administrative forces. is that of STARTING RIGHT A movement which started several years ago but which has just recently spread and come to the stage of bearing the students fruit county and city clubs organized on the campus but which are in their home communi intended to function ties. At the present time there are quite a number of these organizations and their num ber is constantly increasing. Among them are the Detroit Club, Grand Rapids Club, Bay City Club, Big Four Club including four coun ties in southwestern Michigan and numerous others. In all these organizations the object interests of M. A. C. in the further is to their the alumni home towns and this is done largely in co operation with organizations. Having an almost identical objective they vir tually amount to a campus section of the local alumni associations. Many of the student clubs meet with the alumni associations during va cations and assist them in their work among prospective students. Out of this cooperation much mutual good comes. Alumni meet and become acquainted with present day students and are given new and freshened views of. the college, college life and college work. Their point of contact with the campus is burnished up a bit. And for the student members of these clubs there is inspiration for them in knowing who the M. A. C. men and women are in their communities and the places they hold there. It also gives them an introduction to the alumni organization and its object, an introduction which is good for them. For the college these clubs combined with those of alumni are far more effective than either could be working alone. the efforts of There is a contention on the campus that the student body is over-organized. But when there is an opportunity for good 'work ever and a willingness is always "room for one more." to do it there in the People's Church at Meeting of Executive Committee of M. A. C. Ass'n.

M. A. C. Men Coaching High Schools Successful. Sheldon Lee '17, genial secretary of the Detroit Club, is. authority for the statement that up to within a week or so ago but one high school team coached by an M. A. C. alum nus had been beaten this season. He referred to the game in which Howard Beatty's ('16) Saginaw Eastern High squad lost to Detroit season, that Francis Jacks' Northwestern. He went on to point out that Saginaw Arthur Hill coached by "Irish" Ram sey '20 had had a successful that "Freddie" Jacks ('18) Hamtramck High was then unbeaten, team at Muskegon was still going strong and that Wayne Palm '21, at Bad Axe, and "Brownie" Springer 21 at Port Huron had also been suc cessful. Since "Shelly" gave us this informa tion it has been found out that "Smiley" Bas set '21, coaching the Ovid High School team has lost one or two games through Ovid High playing aggregations considerably out of their class. Reports of the last or final games of these teams coached by M. A. C. men are different not yet available but taken all in all the suc cesses of alumni who are coaching high. schools speaks well for their college athletic training and reflects considerable credit upon the athletic department, as well as the men themselves.

"Is there anything doing at M. A. C ?" asks a campus humorist in the Holcad who in a kindly, well intentioned manner holds the mir ror up to the student body's natural appitude and fondness for tripping the light fantastic. "Well, I'll say there is," he continues. "Just go out by the site of the old College Hall some Friday or Saturday night about 10 o'clock and listen. If you have approached on silent feet you may hear subdued voices from the nearby evergreens whose wide-spreading branchs afford almost complete seclusion; you may hear the wails of an unfortunate frosh who vainly endeavors to reach his toes; you may surprise some of the (naturally) furred inhabitants of our beloved campus ; but, most certainly, upon pausing you will hear the. long the drawn bla-aa-a-t, ('melodious') clink-clank and the rythmic rat- a-tat of the modern jazz orchestra. the soft plunk-plunk, really "Perhaps the various sounds will seem a little mixed but that can be readily explained because you are two or •three orchestras each trying to shew a little the rest, for on this night's • more pep than rest many future engage performance may ments and the orchestra that gets the inside track 'out at the College' has success assured "for the remainder of the year listening to "They don't have many parties at colleges?

Notre Dame has but one game this season, that dropped to Iowa 10 to 7 early in the fall and they have played both in . the East and West. Iowa's victory this year is the only one that any team can boast of gaining over Notre Dame since the Aggies defeated in 1918. As a matter of fact it is probable, that, since the establishment of athletic relations between the Farmers and the Hoosiers, the former eleven has been victorious oftener than any other' team in the country which plays Notre Dame.

Furthermore Lart- singites have been eager all season to see a go between their High state champion contenders and the All-Fresh which contains five of last year's Lansing high stars as well as the pick of a number of other state high teams. .

As it was, the game ended more or for all concerned. With less the unsatisfactorily score standing 6 to 3 against them and time getting short, the Fresh tried a long forward the Notre Dame 3$ yard line.
