The healthy glow upon your mug and eke the coat of tan, does not bespeak the student, my en- gineering man." His smile, it was delightful, of a real heart-warming kind, as he said, " Why" hello! Have you heard what's in the wind?" And I answered that I had not, but begged he'd spring the jest (whle I tucked his little sliding rule more snugly in his vest). "I've just come", he said, "from meeting with the rest of the seven- teen's. Been listening to a project for to change our style of jeans. Seems our life won't be worth living till we inject a little joy by parading on the campus in our 'pants' of corduroy! Swell dressers of the senior class are pretty nigh in tears, but the motion it was carried by the rough-neck engin- eers. They've appointed a committee to select the special brand that will cover with distinction-- well -the transit-bearing band. And those that fuss with test tubes and with rheostats and such, will either wear the corduroys or get themselves in dutch." Thus saying, he waxed silent, in his eyes a mournful gleam. "How will you look," I asked him, "to that lit- erary queen?" "Like Chaplin in his photoplay, 'Rube Hiram in the City'," and his language as he turned away was any- thing but pretty.

BELEVE?~ ~HiVNWHEN ALA !NIA i~lIjIJ 4~ft,.iNBRITISH CHANNE[ YHIH~UU"'1OER SUNK ,'UR ING W Misunderstanding over the playing of "The Victors" by the M. A. C. band, which has lasted several years, has been overcome by co-operation ,be- tween the student councils of M. A. C. and the University, according to a let- ter receivEd from W. R. Wright, presi- dent of the Agricultural college or- ganization. Wright said In part: "M. A. C. has no desire to adopt 'The Victors' as a battle song, but it is easy to understand how such a feeling might arise in the minds of the students of the university. "A song is being written, which, if satisfactory, will be adopted by the band and student body for such pur- poses." May Not Abandon Song Entirely. According to the communication, "The Victors" has been used by the band in the same spirit that other uni- versity marches are played; becauseit has "the punch and spirit." Referring to future action the letter says: "It iN hardly possible that our band will entirely abandon the use of 'The Vic- tors' as a march, but as far as using it as a battle song-that is entirely out of the question." Wright's letter came as the result of a.request on the part of the Michi- gan student council for a considera- tion of the effect which continued play- ing by the M. A. C. band woulb have upon relations between -the schools. The letter said in part: Part of Student Connell Note. "For the past few seasons it has been the practice of your Varsity band. to use this selection at all important athletic events and mass meetings, in- cluding those events in which our university was the opponent, and it is felt by the student body here that, taking everything into account-the fact that it has been used at your cele- brations, snakedances, and events in which Michigan was not connected- that this has not been done in the spirit of keen, friendly rivalry, or in the spirit in which your band plays 'The Yellow and Blue,' and ours 'The Alma Mater,' but in an attempt to adopt Michigan's battle song. is is not attributed to your student ody in general, but to the mistak of a few who have charge of this matter. "This has been given absolutely no publicity in order to facilitate the end in view." DAR CREATES NEW OFFICES Corresponding Secretary and Consult- ing Registrar Chosen for Year Two new offices were created at the business session of the D. A. R. yes-.' terday. Mrs. Thomas J. Handy, of Bay City, will hold the position of cor- responding secretary during the en- suing year while Mrs. W. W. Butter- field, of Muskegon, will act as con- sulting registrar.
