Payne SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1916. Night Editor-J. L. Stadeker THE FINAL CURTAIN With the final blow of the time- keeper's whistle yesterday afternoon, Michigan's 1916 football season went into history. There will be many who will call it a failure. Many will put it in a class with the few notoriously poor seasons in the past, simply be- cause Michigan lost its last two games. But the 1916 season was decidedly not a poor season. The team that started the year with few veterans won its first seven games, two of them against strong opponents who had vanquished the Varsity the year be- fore. To be sure it lost its last two games, but in each case only by the narrow margin of three points. But mere figures do not reveal the fight- ing spirit, the enthusiasm, and the de- termination which characterized the football team of 1916. Because these elments were generated in the team this fall, we consider the season suc- rlssful. Football at Michigan can never remain at a standstill. It is either on the down-grade or the up- grade. The 1916 team has put it back on the upward path. When next year's team starts its practice in the fall, fresh in its memory will be the careers of men like Maulbetsch, Dunne. Rehor, Nlemann, Zeiger, and Whalen. The work and the fight that these men displayed will be an inspiration. Of the 11 men who started the game yesterday for Michigan, seven will re- turn to build the football team of 1917. If these men and the others who step in to fill the places of the departing seniors take as big a step forward as this year's team did, we predict for them one of the most successful sea- sons a Michigan team has ever had. MERE NUMBERS About 800 years ago, in the "dark ages," the University of Paris had 12,- 000 students. Abelard (born 1079, died 1142) was one of the famous faculty men. University students in the United States who write home the astound- ing news that their own university has reached the astounding figures of 5,- 000, or 7,000, or even 9,000, may get a helpful tonic of humility out of the figures of ancient Paris. To make the lesson of the unimportance of mere attendance, it is interesting to learn that there were 45,000 students in a Russian school during the past cen- tury. Columbia University in New York is rapidly speeding toward 20,000. Many of those who have read the editorial to this point have probably done so because they are implicated in a general fallacy among Americans that figures spellthe rating of a uni- versity or college. Numbers certainly play an important part, but it is look- ing up to see small colleges like Princeton carry prestige out of all proportion to their attendance. Thus many universities through the west are undoubtedly beginning to realize that they have almost no chance of becom- ing the largest numerically in the na- tion, and therefore are realizing that the proposition of having better educa- tion is as big a factor as the attend- ance bugaboo.
