The injury to uzicka is a direct insult to everything Michigan
stands for. Whet er he is able to pitch the games he was depended
upon to win with the next few days makes little difference. Ruz-
icka was injured y one his own classmates while attempting to stop
the hazing. That i a blemish which will han§ over the sophomore
class for some ti to come.
The freshman c ass is wholly as responsible for the happening as
the sophomores. d they worn their freshmen caps regularly, noth-
ing of such import ould have occurred. Had they kept off the
streets instead of ublicly courting the hazing Ruzicka would not be
in the hospital.
Presidents of the sophomore, junior, and senior literary and eng-
ineering classes are ent on seeing that public hazing, at least, be
stamped out for the 'remainder of the year. The Student council is
doing everything po sible to stop the hazing.
Michigan cannot 4ndergo trouble of any sort tonight or during the
balance of the year. Hazing must be stopped, and at once, else Un-
iversity authorities njay feel called upon to punish offenders by re-
moval. Continuance of this action by either the 1920 or 1921 classes
will mean they are r t of Michigan, composed of men not worthy to
be given the name ofj Michigan men.
