OLD HUMAN POLIICIL BILLS INALOMNI BLI University Collection Contains Burial Urns, Water Pipes, and Wash Bowls. Now is the time when the candi- dates for office look about them and try to remember the good things in their lives. The old saying is that history repeats itself for down in the dusky basement of Alumni Memorial Hall there are advertisements of the various candidates for offices made out by dark-skinned gentlemen in ancient Rome. These interesting memorials are in the form of inscriptions written in red letters on marble slabs that line the basement of Memorial Hall. They were collected by Walter Dennison and brought over to this country by him after the death of an old Italian priest who had spent his lifetime in collecting them.. But these interesting things are only a emall portion of the wonderful things that are stored away in the recesses of Memorial Mall. There is a collec- tion of ancient Roman and Etruscan burial urns that are the finest in the country. This collection is kept in Professor F. W. Kelsey's office and contains urns that date back to the time of Christ's crucifixion. There are urns shaped like a house, weighing one hundred and fifty pounds, that kept the ashes of the ancient Romans intact. One of the urns that is shaped like a large water jar contains the charred bones of a boy or girl four- teen years old. The bones were analyzed by Dr. G. L. Streeter, former professor of anatomy at the Univer- sity. Perhaps the most interesting of the urns from a purely artistic standpoint is the Etruscan sarcophagus represent- ing the combat between Eeteocles and Polynices. The urn is gray in color and the helmet and trappings of Eteocles are red. The shield of Poly- nices is painted blue.

Knowing little of the rudiments of the game, he won a place on the line through sheer pluck and fighting spirit, and his ability to keep at 'em should win him a regular posi- tion this year. Weske has been work- ing in Detroit this summer, and while he is slightly- under weight to do his best work, says that he is fit physically to give Yost all that he has. Whalen played a good consistent game at end and will be a strong can- didate for this -position. "Jimmy" plays a high order of defensive game. In addition to the ,above wearers of the Varsity "M," the following can- didates who won the "AMA" last year have been invited: . "Phil" Raymond, full back; W . Sharpe, half back; Hoyne-Howe, cen- ter; Alan W. Boyd, guard; Harold M. Zeiger, quarter hack. N. J. Brazell, N. S. Thompson, E. A. iuber, Heuburn Ingham, C. O. Skin- ner, W. O. R. Johnson, and Samuel Cohen are the members of the Reserve squad who will be back for early prac- tice. There are several promising men of the All-Fresh team who may fill the shoes of the veterans. Weiman and Peach, who played the ends on the first-year eleven, are big fellows, weighing over 180 pounds, and in case v:hey work well inside the flanks, Yost snay decide to play them at the tackle positions. Sparks and Hanish are two god-looking possibilities for the back- field Sparks directed the play of the yearlings and showed great skill in all departments of the game. He will be a formidable candidate for the pivot- p>osition. Hanish was chosen All- State halfback during his prep days with Union High of Grand Rapids, and piayed a splendid defensive game with the Freshmen last year. He seemed .low in getting started with the ball, let if the coaches can put some pep into him "Joe" will be a valuable man on the squad. Williams is a scrappy, aggressive player from the All-Fresh Naio will cause attention in the scram- ie for positions on the Varsity. Dunn and McLachlan, last year's freshman tackles, should round into good shape before the end of the coming season. The past year saw several particu- larly brilliant star performers on the various class teams, and these men have not been overlooked by the ath- letic authorities when extending in- ,itations for early training practice. Captain-elect Brandell; of the basebal team has been asked to report for early training, but it is doubtful if Coach Lundrgren's star will give up baeball for football. Wood, Bathrick, Joe Robins, Ibaseball pitcher; McCal- lim, Watts, Willard, Corgin, Shelton Jones and Goodsell constitute the bal- ance of the men to receive invitations. Watts is a big fellow who plays a back field position. In the class games he showed himself to be a fearless player, and his scrapping ability may give him a berth. Corbin was a regu- lar performer on the track team, his best event being the hurdles. "Cec" appeared for spring football practice and his showing so pleased the coaches that they have decided to include him with the squad. Goodsell has the asize to develop into a whirlwind player. He stands over six feet two inches, weighs 212 pounds stripped and has speed enough to use his weight to good advantage. He gained his knowledge of football on Saginaw high school teams, but was unable to turn out for the freshmen last fall. Jones was ad- judged by Dr. May to be the most nearly physically perfect freshman enrolled in the 1919 class. J. H. MARKS, SUPERINTEDENT OF GROUNDS, RESIGNS POSITION J. If.
