THE ITIC OUR HOPE Since the lifting of the ban against National Fraternities at II. S. C. by the state legislature in 1920, much progress has been made. Four of the Nationals have established charters with the locals and the remaining societies h<.!-ve petitioned. - - . A committee composed of Actives and A lumni have this year sent our forma l petition to Phi Kappa Psi to be considered at their national con vention ·to be held in June at Boston . . Through the earnest and hearty co-operation of every member we hope to be successful. D. C. STIRlVI. A NEW NATIONAL HONORARY The Michigan Delta Chapter of the Theta Alpha Phi, a national honorary dramatic fraternity, was organized at M. A. c., May 8, 1924. The purpose of the fraternity is to further dramatics at this school and to place them on a higher level. The chapter is made up of the old dramatic club which has stood so long here. The requirements for mem bership in Theta A lpha Phi are somewhat more ridged than they were for the old club. There were eight students made charter members. Brother Riggs was taken in: as a charter member. The fraternity emblem is a mask with the Greek letters Theta Alpha Phi making up the face around which are red jewels. It is expected that ~he fraternity will take a great part in producing the college musical comedy next fall which will take · the place of the opera. R. H. RIGGS. Going Strong Since '77 5 THE'TIC / ON THE CAMPUS Still the {{Tic" in the {{Talk" on the Campus "Time and tide wait for no man." Once long ago, someone made this statement, but whether or not he realized the truth of it may be the matter for some discussion. Now, however, Old Man Experience has without a doubt proven it; and many are still wandering aimlessly in the wrecks of their tumbled air castles. Fortunately, most of humanity have . not let a mere axiom daunt them. They have gone a step farther, and now Father Time is humping to stay in the race. It is spirit of this sort that brings men to the front. The forty-seventh year since the formation of "Eclectos" is reaching its finale, and "the House on the Hill" has loyally lived up to its former reputation regarding campus endeavor. "Excavation Week," probably the biggest task attempted during the entire year by the student body as a whole, had for one of its leaders a man very well known and certainly as well liked. "Harv" Prescott, '24, had for his bit a job very characteristic for one of his caliber; he was the "Big Boss" of the "Diggers" and carried his end to completion with every sail set and every color streaming. Then later in the year "Harv" was again active in the pledging campaign. The Freshmen, at a meeting, pledged themselves to raise $20,000 for their share in the Union NIemorial fund. Through Prescott's efforts every Freshman was seen personally, and as a result the total of the pledge cards amounted to $25,000. During winter term "Harv" was honored by Excalibur. Ray Riggs is another member who is rapidly making a name for him self on the campus. "Wriggly" started right in from his Freshman year and hit the ball so hard that it is still going. Besides being a member of the Varsity swimming squad in '23, Riggs had a leading part in the Union Opera "Campus Nights;" this was also in '23. Then to top such a wonderful start, "Wriggly" bagged a minor sport monogram from the swimming team during winter term '24, was again seen in the Dramatic Club play "The New Co-ed," and will appear as Lysander in "Mid Summer Nights' Dream," the spring play. __ 'The biggest achievement in "Wriggly's" list this year, however, is without a doubt the editorship of next year's Wolverine. This is one of the honors sought for by all ambitiolls Juniors, and Riggs brings it back to the house where it has been a quite frequent visitor. The J-Hop was another function wherein 'Tics released some of their surplus energy. Crosby was chairman of the program committee, Stirm was a member of the music committee, and Groesbeck was on the decora tions committee. 6 THE'TIC Probably the next dance to compare in importance with the Hop is the Sophomore "Prom." Riggs is chairman of the general arrangements and finance and publicity committees. Howland is a member of the decOl-a tions committee. These more important endeavors, together with any number of mmor ones, help to keep "Eclectos" ever forging to the front. H. A. SWANSON. • THE 'TIC D r. Kenyon L. B utte1' jield OUR FUTURE PRESIDENT W ith th e official announcement that Dr. K enyon L. Butterfi eld '9I, was to guid e our A lma Mater , w e ar e sure that und er , our Brother's guidance and program, 1',,1. S. C. will enter upon a fi eld of unlimited expansion and success. 8 TH E' TI C THE NEW NAME The question of having a new name fo r our A lma :Mater seem s to be d efinitely settl ed, at lea st in so fa r a s th e stu dents and fa culty are con ce rned. Brother M ark L. Ireland 'o r, in a letter to the editor of the M. A . C. R ecor d, sugges ted the na me of :Michigan State College of Ag ri culture, Enginee ring, A rts, . and Sciences. This na me was p roposed by A cting P r esident Shaw at a convoca ti on to the stud ent body an d met w ith g reat app roval fro m eve ryone. The S ta te Boa rd of Agriculture is in favo r of it, so that all th er e r emains is th e enaction of a law by the State L egisla ture at th eir next session in Janu a ry. Th e popula r na me will be M ichigan State College and · w ill be used in a ll a thl etic contes ts and o ther college activities. The r es t of the name wo uld be a dded only on diplomas and ca talogs wh er e th e longe r fo rm woul d have a decid ed advantage. This na me truly r ep r esents all th e bra nches of studies her e and the enginee r or the science stud ent can say, without n eedless explanation, that h e is a g radua te of th e Ivl ichigan S ta te College.

S. C. ATHLETICS It has been the idea of the 'Tics in th e past . to procure some of the athletes that will r epresent :yr. S. C. in its games during future years. Ray Thayer, our only candidate of A ll-Fresh football, r eceived an injury while practicing with th e Varsity that kept him out the remainder o f the season. H e will be eli gible for V arsi ty n ext fall and will furnish ample comp etition for other members. The swimming team boasted of thr ee 'Tics. Captain Kiefaber, Ray Riggs, and Charles Parrish. Kiefab er in the fancy diving and back stroke, was a hard man to beat. Riggs swam th e 220 in good time, and Parrish was a strong man in the dash es and r elay. " Bill" Eiseler and Ray Thayer are on the All-Fresh baseball squad. "Bill" h olds down the first sack and is heavy on the bat, while Ray attends to one of th e outfield positions and also swings hard. On the tennis team the 'Tics are represented by Howland and Holihan. These men have played in a number of tournaments this spring and will probably win monograms. On the track, Holihan and Parrish are both after the pole . vault and have been taken on all trips made by the team. 10 S. W. CLARK. THE 'TIC SOCIETY AND HOUSE OFFICERS FALL TERM '.
