Both mark the close of an histo epoch-the beginning of a new. years to come it is very probable the names of this class and Presd Hutchins will often be linked toget for both have weathered the stc period of war, and now many 1 with a sense of work well done. What is doubtless the most unu thing about 1920 is the fact that probably the most broken up c that ever stepped up for its si skins. Just when its members getting ready 'in the spring of 191 discard their toques, Wilhelm of many told his submarine comman to go the limit; the United States dared war, and college seemed to its attraction. So, when hosti: subsided, 1920 found itself lar made up of divers old ex-'l8ers '19ers, as well as its original r bers. Personnel Changes So the class that graduates June is not identically the same entered in the fall of 1916. Son its members never returned to co because they gave their lives in country's cause. Numerous o who did return lost a year or s credit and dropped back to a 1 class. This is the last class that can r look back to and discuss with in ity the "good old days" before the and prohibition, when old St. Jol Barleycorn reigned supreme in vicinity of Main street. But aside from such things, have seen great changes and i ments in the University. The pletion of the Union, the erecti' the Library, and other material versity improvements have taken during their four years. And have had opportunity to feel th ginning of the University's part i work of reconstruction. Well Balanced Class This year's seniors are on the' a well balanced class.

Campus offices have been well filled by representatives of this class, twenty-two made Phi Beta Kappa, and the "tout ensemble"' are repre- sentative of the spirit and ability of Michigan women. While each has, in her field, made a place for herself in campus life and will leave a vacancy in the groups of which she is a member, there are some particularly representative women whose "lives and works" speak for their influence and popu- larity among the students. There is Marguerite Chapin, who has ably filled the office of President of the Woman's League, and in this connection visited many universities and junior colleges throughout the country, organizing W. S. G. A. and inspiring the desire for higher educa- tion in the hearts of young women wherever she has gone. Beside this large and time-taking activity, she (Continued on page 4) 1.

ATHLETES LEAVE (J. E. AcManis), Among the most notable contribu- tions of the 1920 Senior class to the University of Michigan has been that, in the field of athletics./ Many of the most famed names on Michigan Var- sity teams will be found enrolled in this class.' The most serious blow at Michigan athletics by graduation will be in track, where no less than seven con- sistent point' winners will be lost. Captain Johnson, Cook, Cross, and Ba- ker, all Conference and Eastern In- tercollegiate point winners are in the senior class. Messner, Beardsley, and Later, valuable ,men who have more than once demonstrated the right to the "M" they wear, will also sever connections with the university., Johnson, Cross and Baker are all, or have been at one time, Conference champions. Johnson holds the west- .ern record in the running broad jump, made in 1918, and in this same year Cross was Big Ten pole vault cham- pion, and Baker held the same honor i nthe shot put.

Dewey) Graduating with the greatest num- ber of different classes represented for years, and with more than 75 per cent of its members ex-service men, the -1920 Law class, composed of 87 men, is exceptional in many ways. . The class is essentially military. Of the 75 per cent of the men who were in the service, figures show that more than three-quarters of them held com- missions ranking from captain in the army and lieutenant in the navy. The average age of the men is considerably older than in ordinary years, and there are six different classes of the Law school represented among the ranks of the seniors, mostly due, of course, to the war. Unusual Personnel Dean Henry M. Bates of the Law school says of the class: "The men of this class are, probably on account of the war, unusually ma- ture, and have displayed unusual in- terest in their work and earnestness in study. Mature judgment in dealing with campus and Law school pioblema has been a prominent characteristic of the men, and as a' class they have shown an exceptionally fine spirit al through. I feel a sincere regard foi the men of this year and expect them to domuch after they leave the school "An unusually large number havE already secured positions this year and most of them with leading lav. firms. This 'is due to two things,7 believe. First, there is a .greater de mand for men skilled in the law tha] ever before. Second, I believe muc of this increase to be due to the grow (Continued on page 2) - v Y S -' C' 0 T C2 s. e r, I n h -_ normal conditions is evidenced in better way than by the fact that men outnumbered the women b considerable majority in the re Phi Beta Kappa elections. According to the Secretary's o 1,057 seniors will receive their i mas this June. Approximately 74 this number are lits.
