T H E M. A. C. RECORD E A S T L A N S I N G , MICHIGAN, O C T O B E R 24, 1919, NO. 5

THE LIBERAL ARTS COUNCIL has ar­ranged for a series of six lectures to be given during the college year, two to be given during the fall term, three during the winter and one dur­ing the spring term. The fall te rm course contains the following enter­tainments: Thursday evening, No­vember 18th, Doctor Abraham M. Rih-bany of Boston; subject, "Can Hu­manity Be Civilized?" Sunday, De­cember 7th, Doctor Ralph Dennis of Northwestern University, ex-consul to Moscow, Russia; subject, "Society and Bolshevism." The later dates are sub­ject to change but the Liberal Arts committee expect to have in January Brunell Ford, the electrical demon­strator, and Doctor William Chandler Bagley, '95, now of Columbia Univer­sity. In February Mr. William Web­ster Ellsworth, president of the Cen­tury Company, is expected and in March Mr.. Vachel Lindsay, the noted poet and writer. In addition to these several extra lecturers are expected who will be announced later. The Liberal Arts Council are endeavoring to secure a variety of talent and sub­jects that are of present in teres t and hope to make the course one tha t will prove to be of great value to the stu­dent body.

T H E SENIOR CLASS at one of its first meetings, instructed President DeVries to make it known to Miss Casho tha t a spring pageant, s imilar to the one given last Commencement time, is very much desired by the class. The fact that early action has been taken look­ing toward a repeti t ion of a spring pageant for the coming Commence­ment makes i ts success certain and will, no doubt, establish it as a per­manent Commencement Feature .

T H E BASKETBALL TEAM is prepar ing for its early season games and has already started evening practice in the gymnasium. A pre-season game with the University of Chicago which is to be played during the Christmas holidays, has been scheduled. I t is the first contest M. A. C. has ever en­tered with tha t university.

T H E SIX WEEKS' COURSE in agricul­ture opens Monday, October 27. A. M. Berridge, '11, director of short courses, has experienced considerable difficulty in securing rooming accommodations for the one hundred men tha t a re ex­pected to enter for the longer of the short courses. An enrollment of a t least five hundred is anticipated for the winter course of from two to eight weeks in length.

T H E FACULTY OF THE COLLEGE and their wives were to hold a reception

for the new members of the staff in the parlors of the Women's Building, Saturday evening, October 2.5. Because of the death of President Emer i tus Snyder it has been decided to post­pone it one week to Saturday, Nov. 1. The reception is the first college staff ga ther ing tha t has been at tempted in several years and is in the nature of an acquaintance meeting.

T H E ANNUAL SOPHOMORE BARBECUE which was scheduled to be celebrated in the usual place on Fr iday evening, October 24 has been postponed unti l Monday night, October 27, because of the death of Dr. Snyder. Pres. "Stan" Hutchens and the sophomore commit­tee are making plans for a larger cele­brat ion than has been known in sev­eral years. The grocery order to ful­fill the Barbecue Menu included two thousand pounds of beef, several thou­sand rolls, and three hundred gallons of real apple cider advertised as sweet."

T H E THIRD ANNUAL MEETING of the Michigan Milk Producers ' Association, held a t the college Tuesday, October 21, was attended by about 600 dairy­men from all over the state. The principal contention of the members present was tha t there is a most ur­gent need of organization on their part , in view of the fact tha t while the milk producer has been selling his product for less than the cost of pro­duction, some condensaries in Michi­gan could have paid $1.15 per hundred pounds more than they did for cer­ta in months and still have made ten per cent profit on their business. "What Has Been Done, What Should Be Done?" was discussed by President N. P. Hull ; "Is the Fa rmer a Profit-te r?" was the subject of Prof. A. C. Anderson's address; and Hon. D. D. Aiken, president of the National Hoi-stein Fr iesan Association,; spoke on "Collective Bargaining and Legisla­tion Needed in Michigan." This As­sociation unites the milk interests of Michigan, and is probably one of the strongest and most effective farmers ' organizations in Michigan. I t had its origin at the Michigan Agricultural College, holds i ts annual meeting here and calls East Lansing its home. H. W. Norton, '03, of Howell, is the treas­urer, and Ray Potts, '06, of Washing-tong Mich., one of the board of di­rectors.

A N ORGANIZATION MEETING for a Col­lege and Eas t Lansing Chapter cf the American Legion is to be held some evening this week in the College Ar­mory. There are several hundred men now in college who are eligible to

membership in the American Legion, besides nearly fifty residents of Eas t Lansing and i t is proposed to com­bine the two groups in one post. The enroll ing of members, the naming of the post, and the election of officers are the chief considerations to come before the first meeting. Financia l Secretary Ful ler of the Lansing Post is .giving his assistance in the organ­ization of the College Post. The con­st i tut ion of the Legion provides tha t the Legion be named after the man who first gave h is life in the late war or a vote may be taken among the members on the names of the first seven men to give their lives. The first M. A. C. man to give his life was William R. Johnson, '12, of Metamora, Michigan, wno was drowned in the s.nking of the Tuscania February 7, 1918. His name has been proposed as the name of the post.

BECAUSE OF THE NEED which the col­lege has for the ground now occu­pied by the State Constabulary, and because of the shortage of rooms in Eas t Lansing, the Board of Agricul­ture, a t i t s August meeting, instructed the secretary to request the consta­bulary to vacate the land which was leased to them by the college for the durat ion of the war, by November 1, 1919. Realizing the permanency of the s t ruc ture of the camp of the state troops and the fact tha t their duty is to keep industr ial peace at this critical period, the Board, at i ts meet­ing on October 15, appointed a com­mit tee to confer with the War Board. The, shortage of rooms in East Lan­sing made the authori t ies feel tha t the barracks at the constabulary might easily be turned into dormitories for the short course men. However, Di­rector Berridge is now of the opinion tha t Eas t Lansing people can take care of all sixteen weeks short course men who are coming Monday. After Chris tmas when the eight weeks course begins, Col. Vandercook of the State Constabulary has promised to make room at the barracks for as many as are necessary. The State Board, at its meeting last Wednesday, was enter tained at the Constabulary grounds a t luncheon, and afterwards with Colonel Vandercook the grounds were inspected with a view to deter­min ing wha t a r rangements can be made regarding the future of the con­stabulary and the future of the col­lege. ; ; | '[ai

T H E ALL-FRESH, in their first en­counter last Friday, defeated Hillsdale college with a score of 13 to 7. It

• was a hard contest and the Hillsdale men suffered numerous injuries.

M. A. C. BENEFACTORS. Few of the men who have had an

opportunity to exert their influence in behalf of the Michigan Agricultural College have done more to build up the inst i tut ion than have the two for­mer adminis t ra tors whose passing we are called upon to record this week.

I t is singular tha t both former Pres­ident Snyder and Honorable Charles Jay Monroe, who served the college together and joined forces for new methods and new courses which made for a great development of Alma Mater should have passed away with­in tnree weeks of each other, one ap­proaching his eightieth, the other h i s sixtieth birthday. Dr. Snyder attend­ed Mr. Monroe's funeral and comment­ed upon the lat ter 's life and work and his worth to the college; of how his activity as a man of eighty years was permit ted because of his clean life and because of the spending of much of his t ime out in the open. Dr. Snyder, likewise, lived a careful life much of i t out of doors, and expressed the hope, t h a t day, tha t he might reach Mr. Monroe's age.

Probably but few alumni and cer­tainly very few present day students know tha t the college owes to these two men the establishment of the women's course at M. A. C. In fact, it is said tha t the courses then pro­posed for women could never have been brought to accomplishment had it not been for the combined efforts of Dr. Snyder and Mr. Monroe, for there was much opposition at the t ime to the opening of the college to girls. Mr. Monroe had proposed the course for women previous to Dr. Snyder's enter ing the president 's chair, but it was not until both men had combined forces and exerted their influence that they were able to br ing it about.

An attendance of 300 at the time

Dr. Snyder entered the presidency in­creased to 2,000 dur ing his adminis­tration. This is something of a meas­ure of his work here. More than that he gained the unders tanding and the support of agricultural interests all over Michigan. If

Dr. Snyder brought new educational ideas with him to the office of college administrator , and in carrying them

out, often depended upon the support of Mr. Monroe.

Their work was that of development and accomplishment and it is pleas­ant to know tha t both have lived to see the fruits of their efforts. M. A. C. owres much to these two men. Their names will go down in the history of Michigan agriculture as two of her greatest benefactors.

PRESIDENT EMERITUS, J. L. SNYDER, DIES.

College A d m i n i s t r a t o r for T w e n t y Years .

Doctor Jonathan LeMoyne Snyder, President Emer i tus and active presi­dent from 1896 unti l 1915, passed away Wednesday afternoon, October 22, at his home in East Lansing. Dr.

Snyder had been ill for several weeks his condition having passed to a criti­cal stage several days ago.

Dr. Snyder was elected president of the college February 11, 1896, and for nearly two decades directed its affairs. Exclusive of President Kedzie there is probably no one connected with the college Who has as wide an acquaint­ance among alumni and former stu­dents of M. A. C. and among farmers of Michigan as had Dr. Snyder.

Wis resignation tendered • I n -'1915 >t • an e ra 'o f development and ac-

: ' !oSpl isnnaen^such as the college had er known was accepted with the

WSrets of faculty, alumni and students d a great body of agricul tural is ts

a n Michigan who had been benefited ' t h rough the college service. I § Dr Snyder was born on a farm near I the village of Slippery Rock in Butte

bounty, Pennsylvania, October 29, 1859 and would have been sixty years old next Wednesday. He was one of a family of eleven children. His early life was spent on a farm and among country people, and through it he .gained a n appreciation of the view­

p o i n t of the majority of the students -and the farmers of the state. . He graduated from Westminster college

- i n 1886 and received the degree of Ph. D. from his Alma Mater five years

-•later. In 1908 the University of Mich-- Igan bestowed upon him the degree

•of LL. D. He was a great believer in indus­

trial education, and shortly after his graduation from college, introduced into the Alleghany city schools of which he had charge, courses in sew­ing and cooking for the girls, and manual t ra in ing for the boys.

Under Dr. Snyder 's regime, a great many changes took place in the Mich­igan Agricultural College curriculum

- and policy, and he was instrumental ?t1ii helping the college grow from a

small school to one of considerable size and influence. Soon after he took charge, the long vacation was changed from Winter to summer, a course for young women was outlined and adopt­ed, but not without considerable op­position and four special " six-week courses were offered dur ing the win­ter. The dormitory system- was fos­tered and encouraged and the board­ing club plan developed. During his administration the number of s tudents in attendance increased from about 300 to over 2,000. Throughout his term he was known as the best busi­ness executive tha t the college ever had, being able to secure the assist­ance, financial and otherwise tha t he needed to build and develop its equip­ment, curriculum and student body.

Pre-eminent throughout his career at M. A. C. was his s t rong Christ ian character, which was known and ad­mired by students and all those who worked with him. Dr. Snyder was formerly an elder in the F i r s t Pres­byterian church of Lansing, when rec­ognizing the need of a church for the" students of the college he and his wife assisted in the establishing of the People's Church here.

Since his re t i rement from active af­fairs, Dr. Snyder has lived in Eas t Lansing with his family, Mrs. Snyder and. three sons. The oldest son, Rob­ert Mifflin, '14, is now connected with the bacteriology department 6f ,, the college; LeMoyne, '19,. is now d6ing gr.ad;uate; work at the Univers i ty of _ Michigan, and the youngest sori, Plum--' mer, is a junior at M. A. C. this year.

The funeral, a college funeral, is being held Fr iday afternoon in the Armory. All classes are dismissed for the afternoon.

CHARLES JAY MONROE, '61.

Charles Jay Monroe, with '61, died at his home in South Haven, Thurs­day, October 2. Mr. Monroe was 80 years old and had been in failing health for the past two or three years al though he was very active and ap­parently well unt i l the t ime of his death. The day he died, he walked the length of his farm and brought back fruit to the home.

Mr. Monroe was born November 20, 1839 at Lawrence, Van Buren county, on a farm which his father had taken up from the government. Practically all of his life ha s been spent in South Haven much of it on this old home farm.

He entered M. A. C. with the first class having been present a t the dedi­cation exercises in 1857 but spent only two years here. He was unable to complete his work because of weak eyes.. For nearly a year following, he was practically confined to a dark room to recuperate h i s sight. He graduated from the University of Michigan from the law course several years later. After graduation from the University he re turned to South Haven and star ted in the banking business there. He has given practi­cally all h is life to the operation of his banks and his fruit farms near South Haven, principally the one at Covert. He has always had a great interest in the development of trans­portation facilities between South Haven and Chicago.

He was appointed as a member of the State Board of Agriculture in 1895 in which office he served unti l 1907. During those twelve years he gave very active and assiduous at tent ion to college affairs. He was chiefly instru­mental i n ge t t ing . the Women's course established at M. A. C. Jus t previous to the appointment of President Sny­der he was act ing president of the college for six months. He has al­ways had a very deep interest in the college and has visited the college at least once a year and more than tha t whenever possible.

In his history of the college, Dr. Beal quotes a pa r t of Mr. Monroe's address given at the semi-centennial in which is given "a vivid account of the experience and observation of an active student." Dr. Beal further speaks of h im as "active in local and state hort icultural societies and in ev­ery way a citizen of great worth."

Mr. Monroe had five children, two of whom attended M. A. C. One son, Geojfee Cv^Monroe, '91, i s a grad­uate,^ .a^d^n j.'dUugiiter, Lucy Monroe, a ' t i^ri^M^dr^^ashprj^time. The other two sohsf5 StVpnje^.^B,.>nd Charles O. are graduates o f ^ n e University of

^ t c ^ i i ^ S E i J ^ S f f i i ^ f l d i - e n survive.' A grandson, George S. Monroe, with

'18, was killed in action in France in August, 1918.

The funeral held at the home was at tended by Professor Gunnison and the late President Emer i tus Snyder from the college and by Mr. Graham, president of the State Board of Agri­culture.

In consideration of the deep interest t ha t Mr. Monroe has always felt in the Michigan Agricultural College, and his twelve years of unt i r ing service as a member of the State Board of Agri­culture, the Board at i ts October meeting adopted the following resolu­t ions :

Whereas, We have learned with deep regret of the death of Honorable Charles J. Monroe of South Haven, a student i n the_. first class tha t entered Michigan Agricultural College, a for­mer member and president of the-State Board of Agriculture and a t one t ime act ing president of the college, and

Whereas, We recognize his deep de­votion to the welfare of the great in­st i tut ion in whose interest he labored with un t i r ing and unselfish zeal for so many years, therefore be it

Resolved, Tha t in the passing of Mr. Monroe, we feel that the Agricul­tural College and the agricultural in­terests of the state in all the i r varied forms, and the cause of democracy and simple, upr ight living, have lost a strong advocate and an exemplifier of good citizenship. Famil iar from boy­hood with the hardships and priva­tions of pioneer life, Mr. Monroe grew up to become an important factor in the commercial and industrial life of h is community, honored and trusted by all who knew him.

W e feel tha t the college owes to his memory a deep debt of grat i tude, as one who with rare wisdom, patience and devotion, helped to pilot her through the rocky shoals of adversity to her present sphere of influence.

Resolved, That the secretary be in­structed to t ransmi t a copy of these resolutions to the family of Mr. Mon­roe.

"LANKS" FIGHT SONG DEDI­CATED.

A monster mass meeting full of the old-time spirit was held in the gym­nasium on Thursday night before the Michigan game. There was pep to spare from the time the Ward B. Jazz band arrived with Michigan's goat, until the last note of the Alma Mater had been sung. It was the final get-together before the Michigan game.

A big feature of the evening was the dedication of the "Fight Song," wr i t ten by Lieut. F . I. Lankey, '16, who was killed May 1, 1919, while still in service. The song has been adopted by both student councils of the school as official. Dean Bissell of the engineering department gave the dedication address. He spoke in par­ticular of Lankey's well known per­sonal fighting spirit, which made him an able man to write the college "Fight Song."

Alumni had charge of the pep ses­sion tha t followed. Howard Rather, '17, was master of ceremonies and kept things going with the "old t ime punch." He was ably assisted by Norm Weil, '17. A. L. Bibbins, '15, Pete Bancroft, '12, and "Stub" Van Aiken. '17. The lat ter gave his alfal­fa talk of former years and he was better than ever. "Bib 's" theatrical troup of ex-soldiers vied with the Bol-

sheviki of Ward C for honors in bur­lesque vaudeville. The best cheer leader tha t M. A. C. ever had, "Fa t " Taylor, assisted "Skinny" DeYoung in leading the yells.

Seven hundred copies of the "Fight Song" were distributed a t the meeting.

DETROIT BARBECUE.

The F i r s t Annual Barbecue, which was a combined effort of the Univer­sity of Michigan and the M. A. C. Clubs of Detroit, was held October 17 at the Elks Temple previous to the Michigan game. The name Barbecue is something of a misnomer as corn cob pipes, cider and doughnuts were the only potions served. The an­nouncement contained the N. B. tha t nothing was to be slaughtered unti l the next day.

Major Ned Denby, U. of M. alumnus, acted as master of ceremonies and in­troduced Coach Yost, Coach Brewer, Major F r a n k D. Eaman, and Edward Shields of Lansing. The latter, a staunch Michigan alumnus, gave one of the best M. A. C. talks we have heard in some time. Besides the speakers, there were several vaudeville enter­tainers, mass singing and yells led by Fred Lawton, and a general good time. About five hundred University a lumni and 125 Aggie supporters attended the Barbecue.

This enter ta inment was called the F i r s t Annual Barbecue and it is to be hoped that the combined gather ing of the two alumni groups each year be­fore Michigan's classic football con­test may be continued.

DEAN LYMAN LEAVES COLLEGE STAFF.

Dr. Richard P. Lyman, Dean of the Division of Veterinary Medicine, has tendered his resignation effective Jan­uary 1, 1920. The resignation was ac­cepted by the State Board of Agricul­ture at their meeting th is month.

Dr. Lyman came to M. A. C. in 1910 as Dean of Veterinary Science and Professor of Veterinary Medicine and has served continuously in that ca­pacity. He has a great many friends among the Alumni who will be very

UNIVERSITY WINS BY LUCKY SCORE 26-0.

Yost Men Outclass Aggies but Sl ightly.

While the score in the annual tilt between Michigan Aggies and Michi­gan University, fails to tell a t rue story of the game, the Big Green ag­gregation was humbled on Fer ry field Saturday, 26 to 0. In spite of the fact tha t half of the large tally was scored in the last quarter , Brewer's men fought fiercely unti l the final gun an­nounced that the drubbing handed the Maize and Blue in 1915. was a t las t avenged.

At the end of the first half, the ' score stood, 6 to 0, and at this t ime

the relative power of the two teams was best expressed. There is no doubt that the wearers of the Green and White were outclassed, but their fight­ing spiri t dur ing the first half was much greater than tha t of the Yost-men. Even after a fumble and a re­covery by Czysz in the third quar ter had added seven points to Michigan's lead the final outcome of the bat t le was still in doubt for the visi t ing out­fit came back with speed that threat­ened to overcome the disadvantage under which they had been placed.

Approximately 23,000 people wit­nessed the annual encounter and of this number, about one-fourth were M. A. C. adherents. An hour before the opening of the game found the s tands on both sides of the gridiron half filled and all roads leading to the field filled into s t reams of people headed for the scene of the game.

Shortly before 2:30 the M. A. C. band marched into the field and after a round had been completed by the khaki-clad Aggies, Michigan's band in Yellow and Blue took the center of the stage. A duel of songs and yells from rival stands continued throughout the game. Yost's warr iors took the grid­iron at 2:17 and they were followed by the Big Green squad led by Capt. Franson. After a short signal prac­tice, Fra'nson and Capt. Goetz were called together for the toss which1 was won for the Aggies. Franson chose to defend the west goal and receive.

Aggies Win Toss. M. A. C. chose to defend the west

goal. The first period was marked by a

see-sawing process with the ball in Michigan's terr i tory much of the time. Toward the end of the second quarter Weston broke through left end for 35 yards and touchdown. Sparks failed to punt out. The half ended, U. of

DOPESTERS ANALYSIS OF THE MICHIGAN GAME.

Although the final score of last Sat-I urday's contest showed Michigan to

have the large end by a considerable margin, a careful analysis of the game from the statist ics does not show such a wide difference iii the relative meri ts of the two teams as ground gainers and players of consistent football.

The ground gained on running plays from formation for M. A. C.: Schwei, 89 yards; Snider, 27 yards ; Hammes, 14 yards; Springer, 11 yards ; others, 4 yards; total, 145 yards . For Michi­gan, Weston, 73 yards ; Sparks, 71 yards; Vick, 44 yards ; Froemke, 5 yards; total, 193 yards .

Of 17 forward passes at tempted by M. A. C. 4 were successful, gaining 63 yards, and of 4 Michigan attempted, 1 was successful gaining 30 yards .

Of runn ing plays from formation, M. A. C. at tempted 49, gained ground on 33 and failed or lost ground on -L6, while Michigan at tempted 52, gained on 30 and failed on 22.

Of first downs, M. A. C. made a total •of 7, while Michigan totaled 8 which included 2 runs for touchdown and a forward pass for touchdown.

Penalties against M. A. C. were a total of 15 yards. Michigan's total of 75 yards, most of which was for hold­ing.

M. A. C. punted a total of 323 yards

while Michigan's punts were 404 yards. On re tu rn ing kicks M. A. C. carried the ball 156 yards against Michigan's 37 yards .

M. A. G. HEROES IN HOSPITALS.

Two M. A. C. graduates who have won prominence for themselves and brought honor to the college, one on the football field, the other on the battlefields of France, are now suffer­ing in hospitals.

George E. Julian, '15, "Carp," full back o n M. A. C.'s famous teams of 1911, '12, '13, and '14, has been con­fined to a hospital at his home in Rochester, New York, for nearly a year. After graduation, Carp received injuries while playing professional football, which have been a source of trouble to h im for several years. H i s condition did not improve and he un­derwent an operation at the Univer­sity Hospital at Ann Arbor last fall. Since tha t time, he has been almost continuously under hospital care and for a pa r t of the t ime has had h i s hips in a plaster cast. He is now at J .321 St. Paul street, Rochester, New York, and we feel sure he will appre­ciate a letter or two from his many M. A. C. friends.

Lieut. Howard G. Smith, '17, who has been continuously under physi­cians' care since re turn ing to th is country from France, and who was expecting to secure his discharge and at tend the Michigan game, has been re turned to Walter Reed hospital in Washington, D. C , for additional t reatment . Lieutenant Smith went to the hospital the first week in October for an examinat ion which he hoped to lead to a clearance as far as his heal th was concerned and permit him to be discharged from service. However, army physicians are sending him back to the hospital for an additional two months. Altogether he has spent 14 months in the hospitals of France and this country.

Lieutenant Smith has received prob­ably more honors for meritorious ser­vice in the war than any other M. A. C. man. He was granted the Croix de Guerre, and later the Palm was added to th is decoration. In addition to this, he was granted the Order of the Legion of Honor by the French government which is the highest hon­or the French confer upon those of other nations. He has also won the Distinguished Service Medal of the American Army. While t ravel ing to Walter Reed hospital it is reported tha t all h i s effects were stolen includ­ing his mil i tary equipment and all of his medals.

While Lieutenant Smith 's condition is not as serious as tha t of Jul ian 's , the Record believes tha t he, too, will appreciate a let ter from- any of h i s classmates.
