Case Humor Editor.A..............s.s........Donald Coney Assistants RESEARCH WORK AT MICHIGAN Here at Michigan, we are forced to admit that, at best, opportunities for research work by students, other than those in seminars; are very limited. A review of the departments substantiates this con- tention'. In the first place, only those men who are in- structors or postgraduates, are given opportunities, or encouragement in this line. In the medical college, a research society has been formed by stu- dents, but very little valuable work has been accom- plished. All investigation along scientific lines must be done independently by the students, and during time taken from their class work. These seem to be the circumstances in all departments of the Uni- versity. Although the student may not be discour- aged from doing research work, it is quite evident that he is not stimulated to it. Most people think of Europe 'as being foremost in science. Whether this is correct or not is merely a matter of opinion. Nevertheless, the fact remains that in European universities, the student who is interested in any particular field of study, be it sci- ence or/ the arts, .is encouraged to investigate, to advance human knowledge at least a little. This is certainly not the attitude in most American colleges, and Michigan is no exception. Although the student body is at present apparent- ly not altruistically inclined, and does not care to help advance science, a little encouragement by the faculty would go a long way towards bringing the campus, out of its lethargic state.' Psychologically, there is very little difference between the small boy and his hobby, the scientist and his reaeearch. A spirit of serious play motivates each. One hope re- mains, however, that our new campus buildings will be so equipped as to stimulate the undergraduate to venture forth on teh sea of science, and there ex- plore new and strange realms. The last train has pulled out, taking with it the last stranded undergraduates, all wondering, as they homeward roll, if they will receive their grades before they return for the fall semester. Perhaps they will-and perhaps not ! It is rumored that some of the alumni are prac- ticing up on Nick Altrock's funny coaching antics. For purposes of emulation, why not try Babe Ruth?

DONAHUE BACK TO MICHIGAN Michigan alumni are returning to their Alma Mater with great eagerness. Time has tinted their memory with a rosy hue, and they will perhaps be disappointed with the Michigan to which they re-- turn. Those who-come back to their fraternities and sororities receive a friendly greeting, but after that they will be left very much to themselves. Each one of the graduating studeits is very much oc- cupied with him or herself, and as a consequence the returned graduate will doubtless feel out of touch and out of harmoony here. The independent person who does not return to a fraternity will be even farther removed from the college spirit. There have been various changes made in build- ings and on the campus. This difference will be emphasized by the fact that the alumnus will see but few of his former friends and classmates dur- ing his last busy days here. Naturally enough, Jis enthusiasm will be replaced by a feeling of dissat- isfaction. But in spite of this apparent change the spirit of the institution remains the same. Those going out now are experiencing the same feelimgs which the alumni did, years ago. Michigan means the same to them, it stands for the same high ideals; and they have the same enthusiasm for and inter- est in it as did former graduates. So Michigan is tfle samne old Michigan essentially, though viewed in a different perspective. The student body is clad that the alumni have re- turned to renew the memories of their college days, in this one week of activities. The Summer Daily joins the faculty and students in welcoming them back to Michigan. THE PLAYER AND THE LEAGUE Today and tomorrow the Ferry field diamond will be the scene of the long-anticipated, much heralded, Alumni-Varsity baseball game. Stas who wore the Maize and Blue uniforms one, two, five and ten years ago have returned to Ann Arbor for the Commencement festivities to test their ability against Coach Fisher's men. The games should undoubtedly attract a crowd that will easily fill the stands and bleachers, for they will be contests well worth watching. But aside from the games for the games' sake, there is another element which is not so evident on the .surface,-the value of college athletics. The names of. the men who are on the alumni line-up, and their success in fields other than baseball, seem in themselves sufficient refutation of the almost age- ld argument that college athletics are a hindrance :o progress and success in life. Newspaper editors, business men, bankers, writers-these are but a few Df the professions represented. All were players of s high calibre when in college, men who fought for heir school and its honor, men who always played :lean and straight. When they left to enter the >igger league, the League of Life, they did not orget how to play the same wy-clean and traight. The games today and tomorrow will not only be iOt, sizzing diamond battles, but they will also be ontests between topnotchers in two leagues-the ,eague of" Youth and the League of Life.

The Landladies League will tender a banquet to members of the alumni who left in their senior year owing rent. The seats in Hill auditorium have been fitted with lunchroom attachments for the affair.

The Absent-Minded Professor Joke "You probably don't remember me, Professor," began the alumnus, "but just about fifteen years ago you sent me over to the Library to get a book for you "Yes, yes," murmured the professor, "and have you got it yet?"
