Past this point getting up to the net becomes down right hard work, requiring every ounce of strength and stamina in your body. And. some times when this fails you just can't get up to the net and are forced into a defensive game. _Shredded Wheat can't get people up to the- net. It is not a miftcle worker, but it can and has done its part in putting players in con- dition to see the game through, which is the most important consideration after all. Shredded Wheat is a muscle- building, delicious, all-day food made from the whole wheat berry. It contains the maximum of food value and the minimum of waste. It is extremely easy to digest and nutritious to a high degree. It is a good, satisfying cereal food, which is about all that one should demand, TEACHERS SECURE POSITIONS THROUGH APPOINTMENT BUREAU The committee on appointments which is placing teachers for the coming school year, has secured posi- tions for a number of former students as well as members of the present class.

Major & Co.-Adv NOTICE At its May meeting, the Board in Control of Student Publications will choose a business manager and man- aging editor for each of the following publications: The Michigan Daily, The Gargoyle, The Inlander, and The Michiganensian. It is the policy of the board in filling the positions on the publications under its control, to award them on the basis of merit to those who have served in minor posi- tions on the publications to which the positions pertain. It sometimes happens, however, that no one who has served on the publica- tions during the year is eligible or capable of filling one ,of the leading positions for the ensuing year. When such circumstances arise, the board finds it necessary to consider outside candidates. This notice should not be considered as an intimation that these circumstances will arise this year. All applications for these positions should be in the hands of Professor F. N. Scott on or before May 7, in order to be considered. Each application should contain a statement of the ex- perience of the applicant and should be accompanied by any letters of rec- ommendation which he may have. BOARD IN CONTROL OF STUDENT PUBLICATIONS. Senior Engineers Hold Last Party Senior engineers will give their last party tomorrow night at the Armory. Shook's J-hop orchestra will furnish special music for the occasion. Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Cissel and Mr. and Mrs. O. W. Boston are to be the chaperons. The dance is open to the campus and tickets may be obtained from the class officers or from L. F. Dieterich, '17E, D. B. Gardner, '17E, or R. R. Baker, '17E.
