Football stars, coaches, deans, B. M.O.C.'s of former days-all of these were present at the football bust which was presented for the Michigan team at the Hotel Statler last night. All the notables supposed to be there just were not there, for the national gridiron dinner at Washington divert- ed even Col. Lindbergh from the big affair at the Statler-but there were plenty of them here. Lindbergh's boon companion, Maj. Tom Lanphier of Selfridge field, took Luck's place, and he piloted the vast throng of ap- proximately 900 enthusiasts to the celestial raptures of unconfined plain ordinary "pep." So hilarious were the proceedings in general that Fielding H. Yost, actually forgot his professorial dignity and really lit that stogie which he explains he first smoked at the 7-6 thriller at Minneapolis last year. Everybody of importance was at the Statler. Some sent their excuses, though. Among these for example, was Mayor W. H. Thompson of Chicago, who said, "Sorry I can't be with you tonight, but I heard that most of you speak English."' Riot Breaks Loose Pandemonium broke loose when theI actual business of speaking com- menced. Dean Mortimer E. Cooley, surprise guest, started the discussion with the real theme or the night, a tribute to the grand Michigan team, when hesaid, "I'm for them and for them strong, God help them to win, but if they have to lose, God help them to lose as lose they did, like gentlemen." Loads of former grid- greats attended the shindig, as the boys say. Four captains of Wolver- ine elevens, Bob Brown, Ben Friedman, Ben Oosterbaan, and Georg Rich at- tracted most attention, but aside from these there were the following: Judge Willie Heston, (if you can call a judge "Willie,") and he presented the Varsity ringsyto the distinguished gridmen; Shorty MacMillan, quarter- back who called the play that beat Minnesota, Conference champions in 1910, when Michigan was out of the Conference, but already showing them how to play the game; and there was "Dutch" Marion, and P. P. Douglas; and Tom Edwards, all-Americans; asnd Harry Hawkins; and last but as they say, not least Lain "Squib" Torbet general chairman of the "Bust." Many Celebrities Fail To return to some of those other! Michigan football players who could not attend, Ruth Elder said, "she would have beengglad to come, but, she could not leave her husband." Coolidge wired that he just "did not choose to come." Some gentleman: in a dark fedora hat, but who possess- ed a soft smile, said "can't be in town, and if I wuz, I wou'd have managed to get another engagement. At any rate, Michigan men, Michigan songs, Michi- gan coaches and above all, Michigan spirit filled the Statler ball-room. The Statler never witnessed such hullaba- loo, such blatant, stentorian, obstrep- orous, sonorous-just plain noise flavored with the delectable spice, Michigan pep. cellent show and I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed it," stated Presi- dent Clarence Cook Little after see- ing one of the performances at the Whitney theater. "It is far more tuneful and proceeds along a greater speed and with more vigor than did last year's Opera," he said. "Of course the outstanding feature of the show was the dancing of Lewis and Dougall as well as their general per:ormance throughout the two acts," declared President Little. "Both are extremely talented and are valuable members of the cast.

Hardman said many members of the crew were injured in the terrific pounding the freighter received from mountainous waves when she went aground. le and his companions came ashore to obtain fresh supplies of food and medicine. The four sailors' hardest battle came in attempting to reach land with their frail craft which at times was nearly swamped in its short journey of less than a quarter of a mile by huge rollers.
