Four speakers have been selected for the occasion, and they will endeavor to arouse the enthusiasm of the men present in several phases of track work. Philip G. Bartelme, athletic director, will outline the work for the season. and in addition will give the men an idea of what meets may be expected to be held for the Varsity athletes. Coach "Steve" Farrell will tell the men something of track here and else- where, and the existing conditions. while Intramural Director Rowe will be on hand to advise candidates of the importance of interclass track teams as .an asset to future Michigan Var- sities.

Hoffman, '19M, and will show--well, wait and see. A double page drawing showing the campus as it will appear under the bustle and stir of military life has been prepared by Harry Leach, 16E. Many other .special features will por- tray military training in its relation to M~fichigan's campus, the purpose being to enliven this much-discussed topic, and bring up some aspects of the subject which may have been omitted from the more serious dis- cussions appearing of late. Plans have been made for an issue of 1200 copies and it is anticipated that this number will no more than supply the demand.
