ryoreword In the act of publishing this annual we are renewing a custom of our school which has been allowed to lapse for the pa t two years. vVe hope in so preparing a document or record of the life of our college for the past year to create something which will be cherished in our future lives. In future years as we casually turn the pages of thi book our minds will be filled with fond memories and recollections. \Ve will be able to visual ize and live again through the trials and experiences which we have endured within the portals of this school. In editing and publishing this annual, we, the members of the Junior class, have had the sincere and unstinted co-operation of the entire student body and of the faculty. Especially have we endeavorecl to make this a fit and lasting tribute to our Alma Mater.


CJJedication TO THE PROFESSORS OF MINING ENGINEERING IN THE MONTANA STATE SCHOOL OF MINES THIS ANNUAL IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED AS AN APPRECIATION OF THE EFFORTS WHICH THEY ARE CONSTANTLY AND DILIGENTLY EXERTiNG TO DEVELOP FUTURE ENGINEERS FROM THE MEN WHOSE DESTINIES ARE ENTRUSTED TO THEIR GUIDANCE

A HISTORY In nineteen hundred and twenty-two, A class of fifty Freshmen Set sail upon the good ship "Mines" In search of Graduation. For four long years the ship sailed on, And fast the crew did lessen, 'Til sailing into port we found But three survived the session.

COMMENCEMENT Old Grads look back through years of time, And dream of college days gone by. They did not know that was life's prime, But now, too late, they realize: The Senior looks, with eyes aglow, To the time his day of fame shall dawn. He sees his strength and fortune grow, And cries, "Come! Let us hurry on!" B. Tanner.

METALLURGY Metallurgy lectures, nine 'til ten. \tVhere have I 'been That you are back again? In the same old building, In the same old room, An hour quiz seem to 100111. From a hort young man, So neat and precise, Comes these words as cold as ice: "Gentlemen, pencil and paper; Put your books away. An hour quiz we'l l have today." In the same old building, In the arne old r00111, The hour quiz has ceased to 100m. I wonder if he knows That forty-five minute for meditation Leaves only fifteen minutes for calculation. -21-


SENIOR CLASS HISTORY At last the day of our graduation has arrived, and the three of us, ready now to graduate, are thinking with mingled joy and sorrow of the past four years. Never before have we been brought face to face with the realization that the passage of time brings so many changes, and it almost seems impossible that the past four years have wrought so many. We wonder what has happened to our fifty-three classmates, who, with us in September, 1922, first entered the Montana State School of Mines. They were as fine a bunch of fellows as ever were gathered tog-ether in one class, and our Freshman year was filled with pleasure and activity. Our Freshman dance, banquets and parties were all enjoyable affairs, ancl the Freshman smoker was the talk of the chool for a long time. The class of '26 also gained the distinction of being the first Freshman class to wear green caps, and the class scrap that was the outcome of the enforcement of the "Green Cap Law" was not soon forgotten. At the end of our Freshman year but twenty-two of the original fifty-six remained, and of the e only twelve journeyed to Maiclen Rock with Professor Adami for a few weeks' field trip in surveying. This trip proved to be one of the best in all our four years at chool, and, although we worked hard, we also enjoyed fine fishing, hiking', sw im ming, baseball and boating. A few days after returning from our surveying trip, we went back to school and started our Sophomore year. There were now enrolled in the class only ten members, and by the end of the year only four of these remainecl. The first notable affair of the year was the attempt, on the part of the Sophomores, to enforce the "Green Cap Law," and as there were only ten of us and more than fifty Freshmen, the result was rather disastrous, 1110st of us being relieved of some of our hair. The Freshmen also suffered, however, and before the day was over, about half of them were minus portions of their crowning glory. After the Soph-Fro h crap, things moved smoothly, ancl as soon as our hair grew in we proceeded to give a dance, the annual Soph Hop, and several parties and banquets, that were all successful. At the close of school the Miners, now but two in number, went on a field trip to complete their work in mine surveying. The. umrner month passed quickly and in the fall four of us returned to take our places as Juniors. This year passed quickly and pleasantly, and although the class was small, it was full of pep ancl was well represented in all the school activities. In the spring the class spent several clays with Professor Wilson visiting the smelter at Anaconda, and a little later the Junior Mets, accompanied by Professor \\'il on and President Craven, journeyed to Great Falls, where they spent about a week visiting- the smelter ancl nearby power plants. \\'hen the Mets returned fr0111 their trip, plans were immediately made for the Junior Prom, and as a result, early in June the 'chool of Mines enjoyed one of the best proms in its history. \Vitb the close of school the class split up at once, but in the fall they all returned to take their respective places in the ranks of the Senior class. For several months everything went fine and the members of the class became known as the "Four Horsemen," until an unl ooked for disaster overtook the class ancl robbed it of one of its members. The Senior spirit, however, refused to be broken, ancl before long- the remaining' members b came known as the "Three Musketeers,' a name that stayed with them the rest of the year. In May the class took charge of the "M" Day activities and before the day was over the "M" had again received its annual c at of whitewash and shone in all its g'lory on the brow of "Big Butte." And now, as the clas of '26, our history draws to a close, our school careers are nearly ended; but the future, with fame, fortune and honor for ourselves and our school, lies before us. Tt is but for us to act and to do, and in this we shall not fail. -22-


THE WILL OF THE SENIOR CLASS The reason: "That all things come to an end, providing that they have had a beginning," is an old but well established fact. For instance, we take a tiny seed and place it in the ground, cover it fully with earth, water it occasionally, and in the course of time what is the result? Lo and behold, A CABBAGE! This wonderful result of nature is picked, and possibly pickled, and the result is a delicacy best known in pre-war days as "sauerkraut" (botanically speaking, thusly ending the "Brassica"). Now, if that cabbage is 110t turned into "Dutch delight," we may have that "Harp's Dream" (corned beef and cabbage). l Iut in either case, the re ult is the same, and we have an ending. Now let us con ider the case of the corned beef. This is the end of something which also had a beginning. In the first place, we had the baby beer, next it grevv larger, was finally slaughtered and ultimately became corned beef. Thus, no more bull. ' From the e two examples we draw the conclusion that there is always an ending to all things which are created. There comes a time in every person's life when he has the feeling that one of his feet is resting upon the well known banana peel and is certain that the end of his life is approaching fast. At such a time that person will feel that it is his just duty to make a last will an.d testament which provides for the division of his worldly gooels and possessions among his heirs and others. I, the Senior class of 1926, believing whole-heartedly in the truth of the aforementioned fact, and realizing that the r ight foot is so placed as to warrant the drawing of a will, do hereby present the following: Class will: I, the class of '26, with resielence at the University of Montana, State School of Mines, City of Ilutte, State of Montana, County of Silver Bow, Government of the United States of America, being of soundest mind possible after residing here for four years, do lawfully and leg'ally make, publish and declare this to be my last will and testament. This is to be attested before the Supreme Court, presided over by G. 'vV. Craven, and the class of '28 to be named as executor. . The estate which I have g'athered in the last four years I bequeath as follows: The vast amount of learning which I have accumulated and now own I wi h to take with me, as I will need it in the "hereafter." To 111ysuccessor, the class of '27, I leave those qualities of conscientiousness, love of work, thrifty habits and stick-to-it-iveness of which I possess an unlimited amount. Be it noted, also, that I leave to him that quality of "always agreeing within my family circle" (may he use it all). On my death he will al 0 inherit all privileges that go with the name "Senior class" and all rights to carryon traditions such as the painting 0:ÂŁthe "M," etc, To the class of '28, the ophornore cIa s, I give the hope that he may preserve and succeed the class of '27 in the regular order of time. To the class of '29 I give none of my worldly goods or possessions, as I' believe that he is not old enough or ophisticated enough to use them wisely or to give them the proper degree of appreciation, and that they would do him more harm than gooel. I do, however, give him my ability anel ambition to learn and the right to "try" to discipline the class of '30, To the Co-eels I leave the full rights of exploration and of conquest of the Freshman and Sopho1llore clas es. This must not be overstepped, as the Juniors and Seniors J11tl t have no such influences distracting their attention from the real purpos for which they entered this institution. If a heavy and sharp line i not drawn as stated above, many OTeat life-works in the making (Continued

CLASS PROPHECY It was a night in December in 1936. The wind' was howling on the surface, but that didn't make any difference where this plot is laid. The changes in weather don't make themselves felt on the 2,OOO-foot level of the Elm Orlu Mine unless it is to make the men "hit the ball" a little harder. It was close to supper time, but the long drift was in darkness. The quiet was broken only by small particles of rock falling clown the various raises as the men crept carefully down in the darkness to be sure the boss had gone.\IVhen everyone was satisfied on that point, a score of lights appeared, and the miners proceeded to lay down three-inch planks, which are noted for their softness, for the after-dinner snooze. After the men had all eaten, they rolled a "Durham" and stretched out for a few minutes before going back to the machines in the hot sto] es above. Someone finally broke the silence by asking his partner if he expected to finish his course at the Montana School of Mines. It seems both the boys were students at school in the daytime and earned the money for the board bill by working a few shifts a week in the mines. The lad questioned said he didn't think he would, because so few of the graduates from that school got good position when they graduate I. At this point all the men broke into the di cussion with arguments, for scores of men who had graduated from there had made very good records. This prolonged outburst brought silence on the knocker. "Just for example," said one of the men, "see what happened to that little class of 1926. There were only three men in it and they all did well. That young lad Nesbitt made himself a fine job in the smelter at Anaconda but wasn't satisfied there, so what did he do but up and leave it and go clown to Nevada, where he had it a bit tough for a while, but soon got a better job and made them realize that the boy from Butte knew their tuff and could put it out. That's the kind of men they turn out up at the Mines. Where. is he now, you say? He is not where you are, my on. 1 see by the paper he is the superintendent at a big smelter in Idaho, has a fine big" bank roll, cars by the dozen ancl is about to be married. Yep, he's going to be married, and he won't have to shovel to pay the board bill as the likes of YOLl and 1 are doing, my son. "The second graduate that year, Tanner, got married as soon a he finished school and went to Poland, where he soon made a big name and a big bank roll for himself. They say he has a large family now and lives in New York part of the time and Florida part of the time. T-T e has a fancy yacht ancl everything material that can make life a thing of pleasure. It's all in th game, boys; if you want to make it go, don't neglect the little details you come to on your way, Tanner never neg'lected his night work, so he got into the habit of doing all that was required and a little bit more when he got out in practice. It's the arne with us down here; if we neglect to bar down we are not liable to make it pay very long. Get a funeral and that's about al1." "Godfrey Walker, however, has been always up and d w n. First he was a shift boss in this mine, but, was 'canned' soon because he liked to booze too well. His next position was as the superintenclent of a small mine in Mexico, but he 10 t that job because he was chased out of the country by a revolution. At present he is back shift-bossing in the Never Sweat Mine in this camp. ,/I,r e hope that he will change his habit so that he may help to hold up the record of his former classmates." Just then a very bright light appeared far clown the clark drift. Instantly activity began in earnest ha te and soon all the lagging wa piled a icle and the miners scampered hurriedly back to their working place. The sudden and unexpected aclvent of the shift boss thus broke up the discu sion and restored the drift back to its usual quiet and Stygian darkness. -24-

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY-"ONE

MORE YEAR"

We look back over the events of the past three years and see how our institution i being built up by the erection of many very creditable buildings and by an increase in Freshman enrolments, and also how our own stock of knowledge and training is being bettered through our personal contact with men of higher learning and with school activities. Our first year saw the opening of the new metallurgy building and since then we have seen an engineering building and a fine, big gYlllnasium rise up. Each year has meant more to us. vVhen in the fall of the year 1923 over sixty would-be engineering students enrolled at the "Big' Butte school it was regarded by each one as one of the greatest steps he had taken in life. Things went along' in a strange, expectant-of-something way for a couple of weeks. until one morning gangs sprang up from behind mounds and railroad carsit meant the "barbcque" was on, Orsanizaticn was hastily performed and we proceeded to run the Sophs down t.he hill and secure at least a sample lock from every stranger .. If the class of '26 claims to have been the goat at the founding of the Order of Green Dinks then we claim to have put the "skids" under said royal order by our securing posses ion and "fixing" of the cute green caps. The School of Mines football team, composed as usual of nearly all Freshmen, that year excelled the work of other years in not allowing the "U" to pile up the usual disastrous score in the game which marked the resuming of athletic relations. Then, when the Bobcat was taken by surprise and left behind, the Mines were in second place in the state race. The smokers and rallies held that fall, especially the one before the big University game, have since been unsurpassed. The usual Fresh Frolic was put over, and through the basketball season and in the painting of the "M" there was no lacking in the class whatsoever. The games of quoit, baseball and "sneak-day" were introduced or at least made to flourish under the new class. So now when Christopher's or Abraham's or whornsoevers honor day comes around "Billy" Sullivan may have a movie class at the Rialto. The survivors of the first year (about fifteen) took a month of outdoor work under Prof. Adami at "Scotch" Bennett's place, Maiden Rock. That we had the time of our lives "shooting" with the telescope, hiking', swimming, and living out, and making it interesting t the other fell w, need not be emphasized to anyone who knows of our chool's summer camp clown on the Big Hole River. On our return to studies in the fall more was realized of what we were getting from college. \Ve used more judgment in u r treatment of the newcomers-taking into account the odds and the fact that this is the age of man's crowning glory (the glory that was Greece). Therefore. as students need everything they have in the way of social aicls, the tonsorial art was neglected-a que tion of civil izatiori or sissification. In the classes there was a decided cut in membership, only five of us were carrying a full schedule. But in the field a large percentage f both football and basketball teams w ere Fre hmen the year before. Our roll call is about the same this third year, but we have found new problems and responsibilities. Athletics has had only the football captain, Don Mayo, as our contribution. Our energy, nevertheless, has been expen led in oth r directions. The Anderson-Carlisle Technical Society boast. 100 per cent membership from us, and the Acropolitan staff ha had five out of its eleven workers frorn th Juniors. What as to the future program? \Ve are almost certain of a wonderful prom and of quite a trip throuahout the state th i year, and we look { rwarrl to our summer field work in geology with Professor Stansfield. \V all fe 1 the privileges which these years have opened to us. Tt is then for us to carry on through the remaining year as the turning point from easy study t th serious preparations for life's duties. -28-

HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1928 Now that we are upper classmcn, it becomes necessary to leave a written record of what we have done in the past, more especially to guidc those whu arc in the course of time to follow in our footsteps. Like all other classes, we were Freshmen once and had to be duly initiated into the ranks of the school by the mig-hty Sophs. Thc Sophs were all powerful until about 1 P. ;\r.01l class day. The Freshmen were by that ti mc well organized, and history repeated itself: consequently the grccn flag Heated on the breezes for the remainder of the year. As Fre hm en, we did our duty toward the support of the student activities and put on a real dance, which was a great success. The class from the start has givcn fully its share in all lines of student 'activity. Dy far the larjrcst number of places on the teams were filled by ~J11e1llbers of the class during it: first year and the majority of them returned las Sophomores and hac! a large part in the improved showing of the Mines teams this year. \Vatch our smoke in the next two years. Thinned out by the semi-annual raids of the profs, ten "would-be" surveyors under Professor Adami, w ho was assisted by Charles C. Goddard, met on August 17, 1925, for the purpose of surveying and putting on the map the locality known as Maiden Rock. 1\ Iter a day of making ourselves "at home," we settled down for four weeks of perfect peace and quiet, interrupted only occasionally by an over-ambitious instrument man or a nizht raid of some kind or other. Days were spent in doing field work, evenings in playing baseball and nights in calculating and sleeping'. Two snipe hunters, OIlC who had learnecl something of the art in the Philippines, attempted to supply the camp with a change of diet, but either the snipes were onto them or else they gave up too easy. _\ Dutchman has no ncar rivals when it comes to sleeping about 7 ,\. 1\f. and as far as we can tell has no limit t.o the net Vt IU111eof water which can be clowned in a drinking- bout. Returning from our too short trip, the class embarked upon a new year; the roll was increased by nineteen men and one real co-eel, making- a total of twenty-nine. The class selectecl Cecil \\'alclron as its president, \Villiam Hullwinkle as vice-president and Clarence C ita as secrctary-trcasurer; and then the class, not quite so rich in numbers or in conceit, settled clown for the rest of the year, a. student should. s are. ult of the parting of the ways at the start of the second hal] of the Sophomore year, eight decided to follow mining, while the remainder hav a leaning toward metallurgy. Since we have hit the half-way mark and are still going strong,we have hopes of sending- a few engineers out into the wo rl d to startle the prof ssion. Anyhow, we till retain a few kicks for the profs ill th coming years.

HISTORY

OF THE FRESHMAN

CLASS

On September fourteenth, nineteen hundred and twenty-five, groups of rather mystified-lookingboys were gathered both inside and outside of the main building of the IIIontana State School of Mines. If one observed very closely, he also saw a stray girl 110W and then looking very much as though she were lost. However, it took a very short time until the entire Freshman family found itself and headed all other classes-in numbers if not in experience and brains. Their enrollment was eighty-eight and they were later to be very proud of the number, as there i a good old adage which says "there is strength in numbers." On the eve of the fifteenth, a grOllp of these infant Miners took it upon themselves to have the Freshman flag wave on the fifty-foot pole where the Soph banner was proudly flapping. To do this, it was neces at路y to remove the twelve pounds of vaseline and twenty feet of barbed wire which the Sophomores had placed upon and around the pole as a barr ier. \iVire cutters were used to cut away the entanglements and sand came in very handy in removing' the vaseline. The next move was to place a ladder on an old Ford. As this didn't reach, a two-by-four was found and an acetylene torch tied to the end and the emblem of their upper cla sme n was burned. They then raised the Freshman flag to the top of the pole, from where the Sophomores were unable to move it. 1'\0 wonder the Freshmen went through the streets of the city early in the morning singing "Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here," and giving cheers for the school anel their class! After the struggle to maintain their rights, the next step of this illu trious class was to organize itself. Frank J ones was elected president; Timothy Dennehy, vice-president. and Francis Leyden, secretary and treasurer. They also elected Rudolph Fabian and Charles Donohue as Freshman representatives to the Dancing Club. As Mr. Donohue left chool in less than a month, Miss Helen Strong' was selected to fill the office. Mr. Leyden having left school, a special election wa called by the president, and Merle Sylvester was elected to fill the vacancy. Later the offices of vice-president and secretarytreasurer being vacated, Byron \Vells and Henry Helland were cho en respectively. One of the most longed-for and thought-of social events f the Mine school calendar was the Fre h man Frolic, g-iven by that class December Seventeenth, in the Mines gymna iurn. The hall was beautifully decorated and everyone who danced to the strains of the lively music furnished by Jan Rich and her troubadours could not help but enjoy themselves. Dancing lasted until midnight and everyone present expressed the opinion that the frolic was an enjoyable event. The last big day of the year in which the Freshman class took a large part was "M" Day. Here they again g-ave a very good demonstration of their true value as sports as well as their value as students. After the pairiti ng of the "M," the whole school (mainly Freshmen) enjoyed the appetizing luuchcon prepared for them by the Co-eels. At the dance g-iven that evening' in the gymnasium no one was able to tell Fresh ie from Senior, a all seemed to be equally enjoying the event. When school closed. June fourth, the Freshman class felt as though it were a ship which, ju t making its maiden voyage, had arrived safely in port after a very hard passage. It is true that during the voyage the ship lost several of its crew, but the larger part of the class expect to be back next year ready to sail over moother water as m mbers of the next 'opholllore class. -36--


A RHYME (Dedicated

to Freshmen)

The Freshmen do amuse us, And fill our hearts with glee. For really they do try so hard To act like you and me. A SONG (Dedicated

to Sophs)

,1\Te sing because we're happy, ,1\T e si ng beca use we're free. For we give out orders to others, But the others let us be. A THOUGHT (Dedicated

to Juniors)

The Sophs call us the cat class, The Seniors think us crooks, The Profs they breathe and say "Alas," While the Fresh give wondering looks.

After long and laborious research carried find the form of entertainment and amusement enjoyed by the seniors we find that:

on to 1110st

1. Tanner likes to be accompanied to weird plays-the kind where there's lots of lightning, th under and h, Doy! a hot in the dark. (Before the smoke from this shot clears the-er-company screams and surrounds Wal lace.) 2. Walker likes to meet all the trains from Helena-she can't arrive on all of them, but there's alway a chance, you kn w. 3. Nesbitt likes to study hard and bring up the average of the enior class by raising his own; it needs

it.

ATHLETIC PROSPECTS The Montana State School of Xl ines has been endeavoring during the past year to attain success in athletic competition with the best and greate t prospects of its entire career. More and more each year are the advantages and opportunities which are offered at this school becoming wider known and appreciated. With its very complete equipment and go d quality of professors it' ranks high with the outstanding technical colleges of this country. Expansion improves with each succeeding year and our athletic hopes and prospects consequently increase and expand. The quota of graduates from high schools within the state i becoming larger annually and soon, due to the popularity created by the records achieved by our school during the last two years, our enrollment will reach its maxirnium. Included among the many applicants for admission are a number of athletes of repute and others who desire to ecure a berth on the teams. From the various types of material, experienced and green, it i. the duty of the coach of athletics to create teams which will ably upport the name of the school in competition with other collegiate teams of this section of the country. Coach McAuliffe has re ponded to Our urgent appeal and has extended his best efforts to increase the athletic standard of our school. The vast improvement which we have derived from his able leadership will speak for itself fr0111 the medium that expresses the rise of our teams to a position of respect. The ba ketball team of last sea n ran ked second in the state while the football squad uffered only two defeats. Several new sports have also been introduced and have received enthusiastic participitation fr0111 the majority of the tudents. These new activitie. are handball and track. Competition in the fir t ha been keen and both ingles ancl doubles champions were determined. Track "vas introduced thi year for the first time at the school and the student have responded in large numbers. The Freshmen emerged triumphant from an interclass track meet. Victory also went to the Fresh as the outcome of an interclass basketball tournament. Success is thus determined by competition, particij itation, and leadership. Let us look toward the future with higher hope, ambitions and ideal.

Tell me not in mournful numbers, "Football is an empty game," For the fullback's dead that slumbers, and signals are not all the same. Football players all remind u. that the game is kick and slug. In departing leave behind u footprints on some fellow's mug.

FOOTBALL REVIEW Mines-Normal College. The Mines opened their 1925 season with a 13-3 win over the Normal College on the Dillon field. The Mines, although a little ragged during the first half, showed post-season form during the latter part of the fray. The Ore-Diggers, on receiving the kickoff, smothered the College gladiators with a series of mystifying line plunges. The Ore-Digging team in their first encounter looked like a clear sky; all were twinkling stars. Fumbles on the Miners' part held the core to a 13-3 win. Mines- In termoun tain. The Miners were pulling rock in true form at Helena October 16, taking the Panthers into camp 28-3. The Ore-Diggers bewildered the Helena team with a series of play of which our own Charlie McAuliffe is a past master. Somehow the Rock-Hound got the take-five idea and let the Helena team eet g ing' for the greater part of a quarter. In this game the Ore-Diggers claim a eli tinction and are accredited w ith the same. Aha, the twinkling halfback, took a Panther fumble from behind hi own goal line and raced 105 yards to a touchdown and a new Montana record.

BASKETBALL

REVIEW

Mines-N ormal College. The Ore-Diggers opened their season at Dillon, January 29, and 30, with a two-game series and managed to come out on the long end of the score in both games. The scores respectively were 32-31 and 33-23. Doherty decided the first issue with a gift throw. In the second encounter the Miners became more accustomed to the floor and administered a real trimming to the Teachers. Mines-Intermountain. At Helena, February 5, the Miners defeated the Panthers by a cia e shave. the score ending 19-17. The midget Ore-Diggers bombarded the Panthers' basket until they overcame the Panthers' lead which had been piled up early in the contest. The Orange and Blue combination tried hard to retard the Miners' avalanche but soon realized thev had shot their bolt in the hailstorm the Ore-Diggers had set up around their basket. The Miners were unlucky at three free throws in the last minutes of play, otherwise the score would have been larger. Mines-Mount St. Charles. At Helena, February 6, the night following the victory over the Panthers, the Ore-Diggers were again rewarded for their speed and team work by defeating the bigger Mount St. Charles team to the tune of 21-18. For the first time in many moons the green jerseyed machine from Butte had administered a defeat to the Saints on the Helena floor. Murphy, a former Miner star, was the light for the Saints, while Bullwinkle and Sigler set the pace for the Ore-Diggers, Mines-Intermountain. The Midget Miners continued their winning spurt by defeating the Intermountain team from Helena 28-14. It was the Ore-Diggers' first home encounter and demonstrated the team's ability on its own floor. The Midgets ran wild, scoring baskets from all angles. The half ended 14-3. The entire second team had been used during the last half and had left the Panthers at the final whistle totally bewildered. Mines-Mount St. Charles The Miners topped their old and keen rival in their second home encounter by denting the netted hoop for a 21-19 win. The Saints were determined on revenge, but Bullwinkle and Thomson, midget Ore-Diggers, couldn't be stopped, Bull winkle sewed up the game in the la t minute of play with a heave from the center of the floor that sailed through the hoop without touching the sides or backboard. Mines-Idaho Tech. In a eame that used every Ore-Digger in a suit, the Tech went home with a decisive defeat hung on their yearly record, The Miners were at their height, running wild throughout the entire encounter. The issue ended 35-19. Mines-State College. The Ore-Diz'zers met their first defeat of the sea on at Bozeman, when the champion Bob~at team administered it with a 40-14 reverse. The game was slow and the Miners could not hit their stride. Both teams used substitutes after the first few minutes of the play. Summary. The Miners, with a midget basket tossing team, placed second in the Montana conference. The clean and port manlike play can never be forgotten in the minds of fandom.

BASKETBALL Thomson,

PERSONNEL

N orman-1923-24-2S. Captain. Forward. "Nora" is sure there when it comes to athletics. He has helped uphold the glory of his "Alma Mater" in more than one sport. They don't make 'em too big for Thomson. You still have another year, "Nora." Don't forget to do as you have done-give 'em ---.

Sigler, Glenn-1924-2S. Center. Did you ever have the pleasure of seeing "Sig" make baskets? It seems to be second nature. Position on the floor makes no difference. The tougher the shot the better Glenn likes it. Sylvester,

INTERSCHOLASTIC FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME-THANKSGIVING DAY "The most spectacular football game in the history of Montana" was the general verdict offered by the five thousand fans who swarmed to Clark Park on Thanksgiving Day to see the state interscholastic game between Billings and Great Falls, which ended in a 27 to 27 tie. The School of Mines, under whose auspices the championship is decided annually, has certainly never offered a better attraction to the people of Butte. The game found pitted against each other two elevens abnormally strong: in offense, with neither of them having an adequate and effective defense against the other's attack. Occasionally a drive goalward was halted, but more often the team with the ball was able to get within trik ing distance of a score. The heavy Great Falls team ploughed through the lighter Billings line or skirted the ends for long gains. The speedy, well trained southern district representatives gained around the wings or on forward passes and in addition twice counted Froru the field on place-kicks from the sure toe of Worthington. The result was a contest that gave the sp ctators thrill after thrill that they will not soon forget. ,\ncl the climax when Billings. faced by a 27 to 20 Electric lead, with but one minute and thirty seconds of the last quarter remaining to play, traveled 95 yards to a touchdown in fifty-nine and two-fifths seconds. could not have been improved by the author of the Dick Merriwel1 stories. In both Great Falls and Billings much enthusiasm was aroused over the contest. The northern district champions began a drive for a special train immediately after their victory over Whitefish sent them into the finals. Their efforts resulted in not one but two specials. with a t tal of nearly eight hundred fans who macle the trip. Cou nt ing' those who drove down by automobile, nearly a thousand Electric rooter followed their team to Butte. The Billings fans routed out in time to start at -+ o'clock in the mor ning, their special carrying around two hundred and fifty wearers of the orange and black. Doth groups had bands with them and paraded a little before they adjourned to Clark Park to outdo their rivals, if possible, at noise-making. Soon after the game hegan. the Butte and Anaconda spectators in the stands had chosen their favorite team and an advantage for either eleven was greeted with a roar that could be heard back of Big llutte. \Vhile the attendance lacked nearly a thousand of being as large as the one that saw Anaconda and Billings fight it out for the title in 1923, in many ways it was a more colorful crowel than was out for the game that estahlishccl the Clark I'ark record for football. As soon as the pistol barked to end the game, there arose a demand to know which team had the adva n tage in yardage. Professor Scott of the School of Mines, who directs the high school football champi nsh ips. immediately ruled that there was no decision by yardage in case of a tie ih the final game. that there were two champions, and that the big trophy for the winning' school and the gold football watch fobs for the individual prizes \\'0:11<1 be duplicated as soon as possihle. As many in thecrowd did not hear this announcement, there were many arguments in the course of the e\'ening' over the result. The visiti ng elevens enjoyed ani n formal Than ksgi vi ng dinner at the Finlen Hotel following the g路ame. the formal speeches and presentation of awards featured in other years by the School of Mines being omitted up n the request of both teams. At 8 :30 both squads, accompanied by many of their supporters, came out to the Mines gymnasit1m. where 1 rofessor \V. T. Scott, in the absence of President Craven, presented the team and individual trophies. Tlilfings won the toss and can. equcnt ly received as a permanent (Continued

INTERCLASS

BASKETBALL

Due to the large number of Freshmen in school, three team were entered in the tournament representing that class, the first, second and third teams. The Sophomores entered one team and one was entered as a combination of the Senior and Junior classes. The Irrezular are student who are unclassified. They carry work in various classes. The first game of the tournament wa helcl on Monday night at 4 P. M., December 7, Sophomores vs. Irregular. The Irregulars won in an ea y manner, 21 to 3. Sigler played a splendicl game for the Irregulars and was high point man with 10. The fast work of Cota for the Sophomores was a notable factor in keeping the score from being even more one-sided. In the second game of the tournament, on Tuesday, December 8, the Freshman firsts bad an easy time with the Freshman thirds, winning 21 to 7. Tanner and Sylvester played good ball for the winners, while Helland showed fast work for the losers. In the third game, on Thur day, the Freshman second team defeated the Junior-Senior combination 23 to 7. in a game that was more interesting than the SCOl'e would indicate. Lackner's work for the winners was very good. He and Knoyle were high in scoring with 14 points and 9, respectively. For the losers, Mayo was the main scoring factor. His basket-shooting ability was uncanny. (,'Foot" 'vValker was a demon on defense, but on many occasions took opportunity to stroll and live up to all that his name impl ies.) The fourth game was played on Monday, December 14, with the Irregulars and Frosh first pitted against each other. It developed into one of the best and most exciting games ever played in the new gym. At the beo'innin,,; of the last quarter, the Frosh were leading 18 to 10, and the g-al11e ended ill an 18 to 18 tie. Four extra Iive-mi nu te periods were necessary in order to decide the winner. The first extra period ended 20 to 20. The second extra period found the score at 22 to 22, and the third at 24 to 24. ln the fourth session, the Irregulars got away to two baskets and the Freshmen were able to score a single point on a free throw. The final score ended 28 to 25. Doherty of the Frosh was h iah noint man with 18. The work of Sylvester and Tanner was very good. Bullwinkle, Thomson and O'Toole played well for the Irreg-ulars. The final game for the championship was held on Tuesday night, December 15. The game wa between the Irregulars and the Fresh seconds, in which the Irregulars were determine I champions. The Fresh firsts took second place from the Frosh seconds in a close game which was the final event.

The Acropolitan is a monthly publication of the Montana State School of Mines. The issuance of The Acropolitan is simply another reflection of the Mines'spirit. It is a material agent through which the students may express them elves individually and collectively. This is in itself a most commendable reason for publishing a paper. That The Acropolitan is a medium of co-operation between Alumni and student body is a elf-evi lent and undeniable fact. There is not a more effective method of creating a mutual bond between two bodies than a written review of activities among each. In the last analysis, it is a medium of expression binding the Mines with other in titutions of intermediate and higher education. The Acropolitan is sent t all of the high schools in the state with the idea that those graduating from the high schools today will be the college students of tomorrow, and to place before them the opportunitie and advantages offered at the Mines means to increase the atten lance in coming years. n the exchange list of 1 he Acropolitan are many of the colleges of the we t, together with high schools in this and other states.

THE A. S. S. M. The Associated Students of the Montana State School o l 1\1incs is an organization of all active students of the school who participitatc in the activities of the school. The as ociation has direct control and superv isi u over all functions of the student body. Such organizations as the Dancing Club, the Acropolitan, and the various athletic and student boely events are determined by the action of the Associated Students. The control of the Association i vested in an Executive Committee which is ejected by the member from the student body. pre id nt, a vicepresident, a secretary-treasurer, and two repr e entatives are elected in the spring of each year to hold office for a period of one year. The Executive Committee in reality only supervi es all activities and leave the functions of the various organization to themselves. General policies and rules are al determined. During' the school year 1925-26 the .\s ociati n ha 1 a relatively peaceful and succe ful year. The official force however had a rather unlucky year; "Brick" Martin, who wa president. re ig'ned when he quit school to accept a position. H e nry 1\ igh ti ngale also' stopped school to work f r a year in the mines. He was a representative from the student bo Iy. The ther officers are: Norman Thomson, vice-pre ident and acting- pre i lent [or the remainder of the year; Cecil \Valdron, ecretary-treasurer; Godfrey Walker, student manager; Wallace Tanner, student representative. and Professor Scott, permanent adviser.

The Anderson-Carlisle Technical Society of the Montana State School of Mines is an orgf1;fli.z'}tion composed of members of the student body to promote and encourage 路aiscussion and knowledge of scientific practices. As stateel in the constitution of the society, the purposes are as 'follows: "The object of this society shall be the' bette 'm~hr$> ,i,t~imemb,er;s by personal efforts; to promote the habit of personal invd'fig'atit1,rt.,ll.long tn~: various scientific lines in which the members may be most interested." , The Anderson-Carlisle TechnicalEociety was organized in 1922, but had existed for several years before that date as the Mining Society of the Montana State School of Mines. The name of the society was changed in order 'to honor two men of the Mines, who made the supreme sacrifice in the ~Qrl'd War. No clues are attached to a membership in the society and tlje only assessments made are those in connection with banquets, whic]; are'giv'en at frequent times during the school year. Any duly matriculated student of the School of Mines may gain membership in the society, During the last year the society enjoyed the addresses of several good speakers at a number of banquets. These affairs were well attended, which fact was due largely to the attraction offered as to the quality of speakers engaged for the programs of the society. .

Permanent committees for the year are as follows: Banquet comrnittee-e-C. C. Goddard, Jr., chairman; Smoker committee-Herbert A. "Ill! endel, chairman; C. Becker Hoskins. Pin committee-Jack Warren.

CO-ED CLUB Every year at the Montana State School of Mines there are a number of girls enrolled in regular attendance courses. At the beginning of the school year 1921-22, it was deemed necessary to provide something that would cause the girls to feel more at home in the institution. In answer to this need, the Co-Ed Club was organized. Since that time it has been a big factor in promoting not only the good will of the girls but also the social affairs held under the auspices of the student body. The first meeting of the club this year was held in the latter part of October. At this meeting officers were elected for the school year 1925-26. Rose Volk was elected president while Helen Strong became secretary-treasurer. In honor of the newly elected officers, a luncheon was held at Garners. During the rest of the year weekly meetings were held in the Co-Ed r00111. This year there were five regular Co-Eds attending school. One of the girls, Miss Tess Dorsh, came to Butte from Sumatra, Montana. The other four, Helen Strong, Alice Thompson, Rose Volk and Maxine Marvin, are residents of Butte and also graduates of Butte High School. However, Miss Volk is a Sophomore, having attended Montana State College at Bozeman last year. The girls supported, whenever it was possible, the athletic and oratorical activities of the school. They attended the football game held at Clark Park between the Mines and Mount St. Charles. This was the only Mines game held in Butte. At the end of the football season, the club gave a party for the football lettermen at the home of Miss Helen MacGregor. Dancing was enjoyed and later refreshments were served by the girls. The basketball games, which were held in the gymnasium, were attended regularly by the girls, also. Various luncheons during the year were given in the Co-Ed r00111. The members of the club acted as hostess, while Mrs. Converse and Miss Hubbard were the guests. Along with these affairs the Co-Ed Club conveniently had birthdays, this necessitating miniature birthday parties. Much fun was derived from these affairs at noontime. One of the out tanding events of the year was the Valentine dance, which the Co-Ed Club sponsored. It was held in the Mines gymna iU111on the evening of February 15, 1926. Jan Rich's orchestra was in attendanc and the hall was decorated in valentine motifs. This dance is an annual affair, the date being set aside every year by the 1\Iines Dancing Club. This year it was very successful and was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone who was present. Miss Hubbard, the registrar, and Mrs. Converse, in tructor of mo lern languages, acted as joint hostesse at a luncheon which was given in room 12 in the main building for the Co-Eels. The table was decorated with pussywillows and a perfect menu was erved, The girls all agreed they made very congenial hostesses. Early in March plan, were made for the luncheon which was held in May, the day being known as "11" Day. The obj ct of this clay, as far as the girls were concerned, was to provide a grand "feeel" for the boys, after their task of painting the "1\1." The menu was served in the engineering building. On the whole, the Co-Eds had a very successful year, and were grateful for the co-operation and help which they received from t.he professors and the fellow students of the chool. They were very peaceful and qu ict girls (ask the president), anel from their appearances some (them would make very good miners. -74-

FORENSICS Up until four years ago, Montana State School of Mines did not engage in formal intercollegiate forensic activities. The technical work done by the students did not incline them towards the study of public speaking and there was no incentive for such activities. In 1922 the School of Mines joined with the other Montana colleges in reviving the Montana Intercollegiate Oratorical association and in holding an oratorical contest each year. The first year the Ore Digger representative, \iV alker B. Carroll, won second place in a hard-fought competition and the year following' Thoma VV. Barrett took third place. The next two men, Ferno Schnoebelin in 1924 and Henry M. Stanley in 1925, did not place, but presented praiseworthy efforts. A year ago the School of Mines sent its first debate team to the platform for an intercollegiate argument. Two men, Harold Johns and William Metz, composed the squad and the team, with Profe sor W. T. Scott as the coach. Intermountain "vas met twice and Montana State College and Mount St. Charles each once, with a victory over Montana State and defeats in the other th ree con tests. Interest in public speaking has been stronger this year than at any previous time in Mines history and consequently the program of activities has been extended. Both oratory and debate seem to be well established now and undoubtedly they will continue as a regular part of the student program in years to come.

ORATORY Every year as a preliminary to the state oratorical contest, the School of Mines English department sponsors a contest to determine who will represent the Mines in the more important event. For several years Professor Scott has offered a set of medals, gold to the winner, silver to second place, and bronze to thircl, as the permanent prizes for this preliminary. The speakers and their orations were as follows: "America's Supremacy in the Air," \iVallace B. Tanner, '26. "The Problem of Our Naval Oil Reserve," Robert F. Cooke, '28. "The New Nullification," Archie McPhail, '29. "Crime, America's Greatest Menace," William Cockayne, '29. The decision of the judges awarded first place to Archie McPhail, second to Wallace B. Tanner and third to Robert F. Cooke. Owing to illness, William Cockayne was forced to withdraw. The judges were Rev. Cecil L. Clifford, pastor of the Mountain View Methodist church; John L. Boardman, director of the bureau of safety for the Anaconda Copper Mining Company; and Rev. Lester A. Bent, pastor of the Peoples' Congregational church. Walker B. Carroll of the School of Mines faculty pre ided and presented the medals following the judges' decision. The contest was held the morning of April 16 in the chemi try lecture r00111. ince his victory in the preliminaries, Archie McPhail has been working hard un ler the di rection of Rev. C. L. Clifford, one of the most finished orators in Montana, and there seems to be good rea on to think' he wil l make a gooc[l showinz when he meets his six rivals from the other Montana colleges at Missoula on May 8.

The audience generally agreed that the 2 to I decision of the judges in favor of the visitors fairly represented their supremacy.

There were no judges and no decision, but the Miners sprang a reorganized case on the Billings men that led the experienced critic' of debating in the audience to concede an advantage to the Ore Diggers. The Miner report the best of treatment by Billings and a fine trip generally. The morning following the debate, they attended a rally at the Billings High school given to the state champion basketball team, which was leaving for the national tournament at Chicago. Johns was asked to speak and was given a big- hand for his efforts. Mines-Mount

St. Charles

The largest crowd of the year turned out to hear the Miners and Mount St. harle debate the repeal of the 18th amendment, between four and five hundred people being present at the Butte High school auditorium, where the event was held. It was an argumentative crowd, somewhat stirred up by the 1lL11l1erus variations in opinion over this very live publ ic question. Applause and a lverse cornm errts were frequent and the signs of great interest were plentifully manifest. The "Fighting Irish" were all three orators of considerable ability and they occasionally swung into bursts of fervor that caught the fancy of the au lienee. The Butte men stuck to plain and direct argument, pu tti ng up a f rceful ca 'e. f\ n u nfortu nate incident, connected with the behavior f certain members of the audience, made it impossible for the judges to decide except for the visitors. However, from the standpoint of ability shown in debating, there were many who thought that the Miners had the better of the contest.

It wa a no-decision argument and a rain storm kept away a large part of the crowd, but those who attended heard strong pre .entations of both sides of the question which in popular interest excited almost as much attention as the zeneral one of repealing the 18th amendment.

High School

The Mines freshmen and the Butte High school debate teams stirred up a lot of excitement March 7, when they argued the repeal of the 18th amendment before the Butte Open Forum. This contest was arranged to give the men on each team practice before an audience in preparation for other contests to come. Sides were cho en by lot and it was at first agreed that there should be no decision. However, just before the argument began the freshmen consented to an audience decision in order to let the high school men qualify for debate recognition this year. An unexpectedly large audience turned out, jamming every bit of available space in the room where the Open Forum meets. The following day the new papers gave the debate generous space and much comment. The freshmen had considerably the better .of the constructive speeches and held just about their own in the rebuttals. Both teams did good work in answering the open forum questions that were fired at them after the formal debating was concluded. The audience vote, probably somewhat partisan in its choice, was in favor of the high school. The 111llmary: Affirmative: Butte High school-Joseph Newton, Thomas Ho ty and William Negherbon.

FIELD TRIPS One of the great advantages possessed by the Montana State chool of Mines is the fact that it is located in an environment rich in mining, metallurgy and geology. One can easily follow the history of the mining industry from the abandoned prospect holes in which the hill sides abound through the various stages up to the most modernly conducted metal mine in the world. Milling ancl metallurgy, too, are within a short hour's walk from the classroom, and the student neecls but to apply himself to 01 tain the 1110st valuable kind of information-that of observing processes and method in practical operation. In geology and mineralogy it is doubtful if anyone spot in the country offers as much and as varied a field for study as docs the country surrounding the "Richest Hill on the Earth." In the branches of mechanics, electricity, hydraulics, and thermodynamics the greatest laboratories in the world -the modern electrical power plant with their dam and machinery, the great engine r00111S of the mining companies, their air compressing I lants, the massive steam engines, and many other branches of the mechanical art are al ways available to the serious-minded student who wishes to avail himself of this wonderful fund of information. What great opportunities do these different branches of the engineering indu tries offer for the advancement of knowledge by combining- the theoretical with the practical, I it any wonder that the Sch 01 of Mines takes full advantage of these opportunities by making trips, both field and local, to . tudy these branches of science ~ Every year the upper classe make numerou visits to these different plants and tudy the practical application f the theories and principles learned in the cla s room. These trips in the past have included visits to Utah, Idaho, Montana, "\i\ ashington, British Columbia, and even Alaska. Nor are all these trips the cold. materialistic que t for scientific knowledge. The men of the School of line are no less human than 1110St men, even though at times they are more erious minded, and each trip ab unds in many pleasurable incident, e pecially the plane surveying- trip of the sophomore year. It is one which long remain in the mernorie of the men who are fortunate enough to take it.

THE TREND IN METALLURGICAL ENGINEERING EDUCATION By Curtis L. Wilson. The l?pid m~rch ?f progres in engine~ring education, and especially in metallurgical .engl.neenng education, make It necessary .to pause occasionally for retro pection, 111 order to deternpne at what rate and in what direction that progress is being made. Engineering education in the United States is 101 years old; mininsr engineering education as a distinct branch was definitely established in 1864. 'ince then, the general mining engineering profes ion has been less specialized than any f the other engineering professions, due to the fact that its own field take in so many of the others. Because its growth and development ha ve been 0 comprehensive, the four existing subdivisions, . (1) 111 inins- engineering, (2) mining geology, (3) milling, and (4) metallurgical engin~ering-, ha ve been a lopted and to a certain extent standardized. These have been developed not as an indication of extreme ubdivisions of g-eneral mining' eno-ineering, but imply as a designation of the various fields in which specialization is encouraged. Metallurgy hold the unique position of being both a well-established art and an embryo science. Science is systematized knowleclge; it teaches us "to kn w.' Art is knowledge rna le efficient by skill; it teaches us "to do." In the develoj ment of the vast complex of products and processes incident to rno lern civilization, it is the' rule that art precedes science. Man usually knows "how" before he learn "why." So it has been with metallurgy; yet the enormous advance in recent years in the understanding' of fundamental metallurgical principle, and the more enlightened ystematization of its theories, have placed that ubject in the category of a science. Metallurgy may then be defined a the science and the art of extracting the metals fr0111 their ore, and ub equently shaping them into condition for uSe in the industries. Careful analysi of this definition makes it evident that metallurgical engineering education must adequately comprehend two complernentary and yet distinct branches of chemical metallurgy and physical metallurgy. hemical metallurgy deals with the reduction of the metals from their ore ; phy ical metallurgy with the correlation of the con titution and tructure of th metals and alloy. with their physical, chemical and mechanical pr perties. Thi distinction ha: been recoznized in university curricula only within the la t f w year, and till only to a limited extent. I\' everthel 55, the 111der n trend in meta llu rgical engineeri ng educa tion is t ward th encouragement of specialization in one or the other of the two branch ; t ward the str . sing of scientific principles rather than the mere a curnulati 11 of data; and toward a better and more co-orclinated analysis of xi tin' kn wlecl, ..;e. The pre ent tendency is to think more in fundamental t r111 term.

The next step will be to think in ub-atornic term, that i. , ill terms of the structure of the atom and th r lation of this structur to the propertie. of metals and alloys.

of broad understanding, interest, imagination and sympathy, rather than for those whose training has been directed simply toward the perfection of technical skill. The metallurgical engineer, for example, needs to be in some degree a chemist and in some degree a physicist, yet no amount of proficiency in the technique of chemistry and physics will qualify him to take the large responsibility of industry and production. Under the splendid administrative leadership of President George \N. Craven, and with the enthusiastic co-operation of the faculty, the Montana School of Mines is maintaining a position of high efficiency in engineeringeducation. It is requiring much study, however, and continuously repeated effort. Regarding the effectiveness of continuously repeated effort, it is well to bear in mind the Englishman's statement: "It isn't the 'eavy 'aulin as 'urts the 'orse's 'oofs; it's the 'ammer, 'am mer, amrner on the 'ard 'ighway."

Now you have been married three times to my knowledge; tell me which wife you liked the most? McCaffrey-You bite three lemons, one after another, and then tell me which is the sweetest.

THE WILL OF THE SENIOR CLASS (Continued from Page 23.) may be utterly ruined. In the case of the Fresh and Sophs, they must fall into so many pits .and step into so many snares before they get good sense that the ways of the Co-eds will hasten their arriving at the proper sophisticated stage. On the event of my death, I bequeath the Faculty the memory of me, that, as time goes on, they may appreciate me more and more; this appreciation of me being brought about by the succeeding classes which take my place. To "Herb" Wendel and Don Mayo, Bob Nesbitt leaves his quietness; this to be evenly divided between them, with the hope that it will help to bring a little peace and goodwill to the ranks of the class of '27. His ability to "get by" he leaves to Joe Canavan with the admonition that it be used judiciously an ) not worn out. Wallace Tanner gives his ability to "talk himself through" to Paul Eno, believing that Paul will be a OTeat politician in days to come if he can only think of something to talk about. He leaves the "soft voice" which he uses in Met lectures to some "large lunged" Miner (the Miner in greatest need to be chosen by the executor). To his brother, "Bunny" Tanner, he leaves the following advice: "Beware of Co-eds in your Sophomore year! Look at your brother!" "Foot" Walker leaves hi complexion to "Nig" Warren, thus ending the dispute "Who is the blackest?" for all time. To some worthy metallurgist he give his drag with "Teddy" (this to be decided by the executor). In final formulation of thi document, let it be known that the preceding beque ts constitute OUf last and only will. Let it be known, also, that on the cIa of '28 rests the responsibility of seeing the provisions of this document carrie 1 to the extent herein signified. In witness hereof: CLASS OF '26.

ODE

TO HUMOR

Oh tolerant SPirit, sire of our mirth, Your laughter forms the better side of life. You smiled upon the planet at its birth And chuckled at its pains, its woes. its strife. When grim, bleak danger stalks, You still will play the clown. You answer je tingly as sere it mocks, And, laughing, ride its hidden perils down. You wreath the sordid side of life with smile , Until it seems there's beauty shining through. You make the heartsick laugh at life's IOI1f{ miles. Oh, Humor, all we have we owe to you. -1 Jelen Str ug.

Consequently Billings, the next day, whcn they left, were showing the handsome silver likeness of a halfback stnig-htarming an opponent. Since then each squad has been sent the part of the award that was its due but which bad to be ordered specially to meet the emergency caused by the tie. Silver cups, appropriately engraved, were sent to\lVhitefish and to Glendive to help them remember the achievements of their teams in winning their district championships. Following the awards came the annual football championship dance helel this year in the Mines gymnasium. The floor had been newly sanded and varnished in preparati n for this event and was in unusually good condition. Until midnight a large crowd enjoyed the affair and complimented the Dancing Club on the decoration of the gymnasium and upon the general good time provided. The dance placed a fitting close on the events of the day, even to the scrim mage for coat' after the music stopped. Reports received from both Billings and Great \;al1s following the )};allle have been complimentary to the handling' of the contest by the School of Mines management and have expressed the satisfactiun f 111en and coaches with the treatment they were accorded.

Dr. Jed -B. Freund Graduating ·fro111 the University of Michigan in 1900, Dr. Jed D. Freund came to Butte in 1901, where he immediately identified himself with the professional business and social interests of the city and since that time, with the exception of a short period spent in Nevada, he has been a factor, continuously, in the gTowth and development of this community, always alert to fight Butte's battles and never missing an opportunity to do his bit in a civic way. Realizing the importance of athletics, especially to the growing youth, Dr. Freund has ever been .on the firing line in the promotion of sports. "The healthy mental development of our youth today depends to a very large extent, almost entirely. I might say, on the physical condition," says Dr. Freund. And in order to produce men be t fitted for the huge task in the business world, he continued, "we must provide them with strong, active athletic bodies. At the Montana State School of Mines there is a natural amphitheatre, which w ith a reasonable expenditure, could be converted into a stadium large enough to .accornrnodate the most pretentious port gatherings this state would require for many years, and in addition to being of great value to the students themselves, such an edifice would be of tremendous advertising value to the city and state." Dr. Freund is one of the city's best known physicians and surgeons, and maintains offices in the I hoenix block, where he enjoys a large profe sional practice.

Dr. Robert followed the medical profe sion before entering the chiropractor's field and is well equipped for his chosen profession. He is a native of Glen Carbon, Penn., but since he took up his residence and practice in Butte, he has proved his intere t in the west and l\1ontana through nurrierou activities Ior the good of this community. Dr. Roberts has a worthy hobby. He is inventor of a tag holder for shipping and advertising purposes. An auto signal, now on display in his office, has taken its place among automobile accessories. It is electrically operated on either side of the windsh ield. He believes it will. be univer. ally adopted because legislation is tightening up on auto signals and his invention will solve a world of motorists' troubles. Motorists are invited to visit his office and see it in actual operation. He is the organizer for the Benevolent Kniehts of King Cole, which has honored him with the national pr sidency. Headquarters are in Los Angele . The organization is growitw rapidly in the west. Dr. Roberts is shown in his official lodge regalia.

Al Hultman Revives the Old Chequamegon Cafe I t was up to Al H ultman, caterer de luxe, to revive the "Old Chequamegon." Al operated cafes in Missoula and Helena. I-Ie met with unusual success ill both places. He waited for an openi'1lg in the Butte field. He had many friends here and had' an idea of the service they craved. Last August he took over the location which had housed the Chequarnegon, the famous eating house of Butte. The first job- wa renovation. Al accomplished it. He installed booths, rearranged the lunch counter and intailed numerous improvements in the kitchen. His idea was service every second. Patrons of the original CheCj1Ja11legon returned to their ld favorite, and new friends v ere won. Service, quality and courtesy won for AI, and the "Old Chequamegou" revived now, enjoys a following that rivals the patronage of Montana' other best cafes. It is not alone a local following and patronage, but friend of Mr. Hultman who knew him when he was located at Missoula and Helena never fail to drop in at his new stand to renew acquaintances and enjoy the service every second of the "Old' Chequarnegon." Mr. Hultman is equipped to serve special dinner, or to arrange for banquets, or to put out a tasty lunch for the man who is in a hurry, and it is a+l done courtecusly a nd speed ily.
