tiver to the wearing of the M's.
Let us grant that 'the mani who wears
an "M" on a watch fob, a hutton or
a soil case does it nierely to show a
pride ini the uiniversity for which it
stands." Let us admiit that the spirit
is commendable, that it shiows a desire
to identify ones self withi the school,
that in the majority of oases it is not
sit evideince of "four-flush." 'What of
it? Nevertheless, ini views of the sys-
trio of athletic hoiiors ini vogue here
and at iiost uiiversities, this spirit is
sorely iniproperly mnifested. It is ain
onis.poted fact that if the "M"l' is
worn prontiscously by aity or every
student, irrespective of his achievemeits
as an undcrgradutiae, that te insignia
is cheapenied atid its purposue as an
"htonor" practically destroyed. 'fTis is
the effect in our own eyes ; ini te eyes
of outsiders the prontiscouis weariing of
M's is most confusing. If, schen the
trains left Ann Arbor last Christmss,
-cc were to judge from caps, gauntlets
atid suit cases, the varsity teams con-
tainied about four hundred men, all of
whsoimihad won their Ms irrespective
of size, color or previous conditionis.
Surely, around this "M" should cling
a certain sentimeit. This is not silli-
ness; it is important to us as students.
Well would we rite the day if these
sentiments anid college customs should
lie siriken front the undergraduate life
at Michigan. These are the things that,
characterize the life at Michigan, Wuis-
consin, Princeton or aity other school ;
these are the things that make Mbich-
gun spirit. Then let this ."M" mtean.
something; let it have a definite place
in our undergraduate life.* We, the
student body, must save it or spoil it.
The athletic association nor aity oilier
association cainnot force us to do any-
thing.
As a restilt of this disctissioii,list it
not occurred to sonic of its that the,
system of awarding honiors to athletes,
mcii. cubthelebaters andotubers
is totsvcry clearly aiidldefinitelysswork-
ed out? Why could not a joinit coin-
oiier front two such orgaiziatios as
the Athletic associatioti and the Michi-
gait Union work out a formal system
of honors that would have soiie clear
and defitnite nmeaninig? The coinstitu-
ency of these organizations is such that
whatever such a comititieswouild re-
port wotild be respected biy the stutdeint
body. And, I repeait, iio organization
can force us to do ansytinitg. If it cotuld,.
the result would be of doubtful value.
It is our own sentienit anid our spirit
that most solve this question.
I thank you for the use of your col-
umns. I wish that more students would
use them for a like purpose. But let us
not forget the purpose. The statement
that the resolution relative to the "M"
was openly favored by Captain H-eston,
"Bat" Parker and Captaino Dird that
these genttlemns might "take a quick
junup into public recsognitiain," anid
therefore that "the sensibile thiing to do
is to disregard it," hardly commintds
itself to serious studetit conisideratiois.
