With almost the entire student body
at the station to wish them Godspeed
on their trip, the Indiana baseball
team left Tuesday morning for Chi-
cago on the first leg of its journey
to the Orient, a trip which will cover
14,000 miles. In the party were 12
players, Dean and Mrs. C. E. Ed-
inondson, Coach and Mrs. George W.
Levis and Assistant Coach Minton.
Students Turn Out En Masse
Classes at the University were dis-
missed for the morning so that the
entire school could take part in the
celebration which was extended as a
farewell to the men. Bonfires were
built, speeches made, songs sung,.and
in every way the team was made to
feel that the school would remember
them and back them all the way.This
pep session was the last of a series
of ceremonies which started on March
7 when the Governor of the Hoosier
state bade the team goodbye in the
name of the people of Indiana. Nu-
merous other demonstrations follow-
ed and after being photographed
countless times, the party, well stock-
ed with credentials, was finally ready
to depart.
President Gives Farewell Address
Monday afternoon the University of-
ficially said goodbye to the boys when
Coach -Levis and the members of the
squad who are making the journey
received the farewell message of Pres-
ident Bryan. He told them what the
trip meant to them dd to the Uni-
versity, and to remember that they
were still members of the Univer-
sity.
Farewell festivities reached their
peak in honor of the team on Monday
night when they were guests of the
second annual baseball banquet.
Speeches concerning the team were
made by Dean Edmondson, Coaches
Levis and Minton and Captain Walker.
