After much: bustle, it was ascertained that he wa stationed at the Union. The City Edi- ii tor then acted. A reporter was sum- moved and told, "Get a story from Daugherty.

"Well, I am from The Michigan Daily and I' wonder if I might speak with you a! few minutes." Mr. Daugherty cordial-f ly replied that his 'interviewer might be given that privilege. T.hen, in an effort not to appear ner- vous, the reporter continued, "Well, ah--alh--, might I ask why you're here."
