The order for the volumns, which
was approved by the Regents at their
last meeting, was closed yesterday by
Shirley W. Smith, secretary of the
University, and Dewey F. Fagerburg,
'22L, business manager of the Michi-
ganensian. Emmerson Swart, '22E,
sports editor, in handling the 85
pages to be devoted to athletics this
year, will give considerable space to
the history of Michigan's sports, her
coachi'ng system, and information es-
pecially interesting to high school se-
niors, or prospective college ath-
letes.
Art Editor Makes Offer
To the student submitting the best
idea which can be employed in draw-
ings for the senior, junior, sophomore,
and fieshmen sections of the 1920
Michiganensian, Reed Bachman, '20,
art editor, offers a free copy of the
yearbook with the winner's name
stamped in gold on the front cover.
To be applicable, it must be possible
.to embody some phase of the general
idea for the drawing in all four draw-
ings. Conti tants should address all
letters to Art Editor, 1920 Michigan-
ensign.
