Up to a few years ago scarce- yany effort was made to bring the young athletes of the state to Ann Arbor. As a result they began go- ,ng in rather large proportions to other schools. Since the Athletic Association has given this matter its .,tention it has consistently worked a policy to give the high school Ahlete every legitimate inducement -o come here. From the first unor- anized attempts to secure merely a ew star athletes for the University .ty have formulated a plan by _hich all high school athletes in the ssate are closely associated with _ ose of the University.
