.6 AN, SUND, MAY 5, 1912. ,_. . COURNGE OF HiS CONVICTIONS IMBUES SUMMER'S HARBINGER 'Twas ever thus. Since the estab- lishment of traditions at the universi- ty we have become accustomed to see them ruthlessly trampled upon by un- feeling studes. But the last, or rather the first straw came yesterday when Don Quixote of Washtenaw bravely strode through the peaceful waste of State street, disporting upon his cra- nium the first "hay lid" of the season. No, no, gentle peruser, he had not escaped from the psychopathic ward, but was filled merely with the exu- berance of spirits instilled by the balmy zephyrs. He sallied bravely forth defying the sacred tradition of Straw Hat Day, to battle for princi- ple and his life. He was battered but still alive at last reports. PROF. TIRUEBLOOD COMMENDS EICII'S WORK AT EVANSTON. U Loui' Eich, who represented the university at the Northern Oratorical Contest at Evanston Friday evening, returned last night. The contest was one of the hardest fought and closest of the twenty-two meets since, the conception of the organization. Prof. T. C. Trueblood, in speaking of the struggle, said, "Mr. Eich never acquitted himself better than he did in Evanston, and the first honors seenrr ed to lie between the first five speak- ers. The winning orations dealt with topics of vital interest to the people, and were full of human interest. Tak- ing fifth place in a contest such as that one was a distinct honor, and Mr. Eich is to be complimented for his work."
