Costumed Honorary Societies Make Fine Showing; Sacred "Bull". Amuses Trong.. GREAT CUROWD SEES BIG EVENT. Adorned with war paint, barn paint and powder, and dressed respectively in every color of the rainbow, with a few extra shades thrown in, eleven campus societies "pi-raded" around the campus yesterday afternoon. The procession formed between the engi- neering arch and the flag pole and started along the diagonal walk short- ly before three o'clock. One minute was :allowed each soci- ety in which to give some "stunt" be- fore the reviewing stand on the steps of Memorial hall. Most of the organi- zations devoted their alloted time to singing distinctive songs and chants, the members assuming various char acteristic poses ,during the perform- ance One of the most striking features o. the parade was the Sphinx sacred bull, in the disguise of an ordinary milch cow with the cognomen "Sadie." The 'young lady proved a bit intractable at times, but fortunately kept her bux- som self on good behavior at the crit- ical moment before the reviewing stand. Fully five thousand people, incl'ud- ing alumni, students and townspeople, lined the walks of the campus to view the parade, the crowd moving toward the pavilion after the procession had passed. Following is the list of the organi- zations represented in yesterday's pa- rade: Michigamua, Vulcans, Druids, Barristers, Sphinx, Triangles, Griffins, Foresters, Chinese club, Cosmopolitan club, Wolverine staff. ENGINEERS AND LITS HOLD THEIR CLASS DAY EXERCISES The lit and engineer graduating classes held their class day exercises yesterday morning. Werner Allison, president of the 1912 literary class, gave a talk from the band stand, Ha- zel Wolcott read the class history, George Spaulding the class poem, El- len Moore the prophecy and Reginald Collins the oration. The engineer exercises were held in the engineering court. Dean Cooley and Francis Letchfield, president of the class, gave addresses. . The class history was told by Clarence Hannon. Joseph Hudnut read the poem, Harry Brown the prophecy, and Ira Hook delivered the oration. HIS LIFE EPOCHS COINCIDE WITH THOSE OF UNIVERSITY Facts and figures in no other man's life dove-tail in so neatly with the Commemoration Week as do those in the life of James H. Cogshall, '62, for many years a County School Examin- er of Muskegon County. Mr. Cogshall, who returned for the festivities yes- terday morning, was born in the year which marks the birth of this state and this .instltution, 1837. He gradu- ated in' the quarter century class of sixty-two, and, to cap the succession of chronological climaxes, hopes to celebrate his golden wedding anniver- sary this fall. Active and loquacious, this war- time grad recounts many stirring tales of the times when the men left class rooms to engage in the struggle of the sixties. PROGRAN FOR THE DAY. - 8:15 A. M.
