Minnesota Defeats Michigan

THE 57,000 p tator in Memorial tadium aturday afternoon a\

football hi tory rever~ d. Th y ~aw a great Michigan team outpla and out<Tain the Golden Gopher but th Minn otan came off the field with the victory end of the 7 to 6 core. And. a the Mi higan follower have ~o often aid in the pa t, it' the score that count .

Th game marked the fir t time that a Michigan team ha ever been defeated fi e time in a row b an one opponent. s the conte t 010\ ed along into th f urth quarter it be· gan to appear that the Gopher were g in<T to fall hort of that achie\ e· ment after recordin" four d;:ci ive win over the olverine ince 1933. It \ a apparent that the were op· p ed b one of the finest quad of fo tball player to appear a gue ts in Memorial tadium in the hi tory of the structure.

During the fir t 50 minute of the enga ... ment the powerful Michigan ba ks punched hole throu<Th the Minne. ota line and mpleted pa e at the pr per m ment to k p the Gopher in r treat. Early in the fourth quarter ame the 89· ard tou hdown mar h \ hich I!;ave the \Yol" rin a ix pint lead.

Th pIa of th opher in the fina l 10 minute erved to mark thi game a one of the out tanding cia ic in the long erie bet\ een Mi higan and Minne ota in the mind of the Minnesota follower.

ith Ie than 10 minute to pia , Harold an Every wa ent onto the field. Injured in the a hington game, he had b en in bed for t\ 0

week and it wa onl during the pa t week that he had returned to practice and then only for light exer· ci . In hi ab en e of cour e it had been nec sary to revamp the Gopher backfield with both Larr Buhler and Wilbur Moore pia ing out of their normal po ition . The la k of a pa ing threat allowed the oppo i· tion to tighten their de fen e to stop the Minn sota running attack.

With the Mi higan line refusing to budge in the fa e of the Minne ota running atta k it appeared that uc­ces ful pa would be neces ar to

H ROLD

get the ball o\'er the oh'erine <Toal line. Into the lineup' ith an E\ er went two sophomore end. Bill John­son of layton and Bob Bjorklund of Minneapolis.

Following the receipt of a punt on their own 18-yard line the olver­inc tarted an ther determined march down the field . Tom Harmon. Michigan' en ational ophomore halfback, broke away for a izeable gain but dropped the ball when he wa hit hard by Wilbur loore and George Fau t on the 50· 'ard mark. The a lert an Every poun ed on it and the Gophers had time for a scor· in<T attempt.

Larr ' Buhler carried the ball into the ent r of the line. He was hit on the line of scrinunage by two tackler. but he refu ed to be ~topped and powered hi wa to the 1ich· igan 37 before being downed. On the on time he carried the ball from crirnmag during the short tim h

was in the game. an Ever made a hort gain through right tackle. The

Gopher were penalized for holding howev r and the ball was rno ed back to th ir own -!8. 'ard line. At th m ment this eemed a cru hin<T blow to Minne ota' orin a chane .

On the next play howe\-er, an Every faded back and placed a per­fect pas in the arm of Bill John-on on the Michigan 15· yard line

and John on wa forced out of bound on the 12. Moore and Buhler picked up three yard in two play. On third down. an Ever to ed a flat pas to Moore who took it on the eight yard line near the north ide­line. Two Michigan men were in hi path but he charged pa t them and aero. the goal line in the north· we.t corner of the field. In his effort to tay within bounds while dodging the Michi<Tan tackler he twi ted an ankle and collap ed a he fell over the goal line. He was carried from the field and there wa fear among linne ota fan that he might be lost

for the remainder of the ea on. It appears nm howe\'er that he may be in condition to play again t Torth­western at Evan ton next aturday.

When the teams lined up for the try for the extra point. Geor<Te Fau t shouldered the terrific responsibil­ity of booting the ball ben een the <Toal po ts for the extra point which might mean another Big Ten cham­pionship for linnesota. an E\'er ' held the ball a everyone in the lands held hi breath. The kick

wa <Tood. The Woh'erine opened up ,ith

a brilliant pas~ ing attack durin.,. the final eyen minute of pia ' and it required ~ome great de fen ive pIa on the part of the Gopher to keep the \'i~itor out of scoring territor -. On the kickoff followin a the touch, down. Fau t kicked the ball o\'er the

lichigan goal line. The olverine-attempted nine pa~ es. completing fiye. Three of the completion dur­in<T thes final minute of the <Tame accounted for fir t down- and lieh· iuan wa on 1inne ota' 4Q-yard line when the game ended.

The Gopher- deserve a world of credit for their poise and coura<Te on the field aturda ·. It was an­other displa ' of the poi e which has carried Goph r teams u cess full throu<Th touO'h spot so man time during the championship era.

Harold an Every George Faust and Wilbur Moore stand out as the

128

heroe of the game be au e of their all-around performance and the im­portant roles they played in the Min­ne ota scoring. Without benefit of practice with the quad ince the Wa hington game, Van Every rose 10

the 0 a ion when he was called upon. Hi pa e to Johnson and Moore were near-perfect to se and made the differen e between victory and defeat.

Wilbur Moore continued to be the leading ground-gainer for Minnesota with a total of 54 yards in 15 trie . His da h across the goal line follow­ing the ca tch of Van Every' pa was a cIa ic. He had to e cape two Michigan tackler who were drivina him into the ideline and at the sarn~ time he had to run a straight course to remain within the field of play. It was a test of true greatnes .

George Fau t played one of the finest game of hi co llegiate career at quarterback. He directed the team expertl y and wa trong on the de­fense .

MI E OTA alumni of all cIa e from 1876 to 1938 are deeply

intere ted in the matter of the elec· tion of a president of the University. It is their earnest hope that a man will be named who can measure up to the administrative and educational tandards of uch leader as Folwell, orthrop, Vincent, Burton and Coff­

the qualification of available candi­date for the po t in a incere effort to find uch an individual.

Minne ota ba been fortunate in the election of it pre ident. Each man ha contributed hi full hare to the progre of the in titution and what i al 0 extremely important, each man ha po es ed the ability to a _ume the great re pon ibilitie of the office without cau ing a lag in that progre .

The member of the Board of Regent approved the appointment by an 8 to 4 ote in a meeting in the Regents' room in the Administra­tion building on Wedne day, October 19. Renowned for hi work both as an administrator and a a cholar, he i recognized a one of America s leading educator.

Th duti and the problems of the pre idential office are not new to him. During hi year at Minne ota, thre of hi pr de e or, Pre idents George E. in ent Marion Leroy Burton and Lotu Delta Coffman, looked to him for ad ice and coun el, and a Dean of the raduate chool he 11a been influential in the forma­tion and admini Lration of general univer iLy policies.

Dr. Ford rved a acting presi-dent of the niver ity during lhe chool year of 1931-32 while Pre i-

dent offman wa on a trip to u tralia and ew Zealand, and

again during the pa L year when Dr. Coffman wa for ed to Lake a leave of ab ence because of hi ill­ne . Thu, he is thoroughly ac­quainted with the general admini tra­Li\'e and educational program on­ceived and initiated by President Coffman.

The new president i 65 which means Lhat, including thi ear he will erve thre ear before r ach­ing the retirement age. The Board of Reg nts will thu ha\e three year in whi h to el L the man who will b com th seventh prc ident of the lJniv r iL in 194.1.

pial commiLL e of the Board Regent was appoinL d thr e

week ago to make a tudy of the candidate for the position. The committee included George B. Leon­ard and Frank W. Murphy of Min­neapoli and Ray Quinlivan of t. Cloud.

When the Board of Regents met la t Wednesday the committee pre-ented a majority report signed by

Mr. Murphy and Mr. Quinlivan fa­voring the immediate appointment of Dr. Ford and a minority report igned by Mr. Leonard requesting

that the election of a new pre ident be delayed until the committee could make a study of the qualification of Lhe 20 or more candidates on its Ii t.

The report of the two-man ma­jority of the regent' committee pre­ented by Mr. Murphy and Mr. Quin­

livan read: "Your committee, which wa ap­

poinLed to consider and recommend a suitable person a chancellor of the niversity of Minne ota ,ho hall be ex-officio pre ident of the

board of regent, r pectfully report that it ha carefully con idered the subject and recommend the pa-age of the following re olution:

'Resol ed that Gu ' tanton Ford hall be and i hereb elected

chancellor of the University of Min­ne ota, who hall be ex-officio pr i­dent of th board of regents, upon uch terms a_ may be a!ITeed upon

by him and thi board and that com· mittee be reque ted to \ ait upon Mr. Ford and advi e him of hi elec­tion di cu, the Lerm of accepLance and report the r ults of their con-eI' ation thi board."

were Mr. Leonard, O. M. Peter on of Albert Lea, Benjamin Duboi of

auk Center and M. M. Olson of Clitherall.

In the di cu ion which preceded the vote on the majority resolution presented by the committee those wh~ oppo ed its adoption argued that more time hould be taken, and that a younger man hould be con-idered in view of the fact that Dr.

Ford would reach the retirement age in three ear. The matter was de­bated and the vote taken in open meetin.,..

During the di cu ion, Dr. Ford wa bu , in hi own office. When he was called to the Regents conference room following their action in ap­pointing him to the pre idency, he aid: "I know that no matter what

the pro and con were before this appointment they were all voiced in the be t intere t of the niver-ity.

'I am familiar with the great tra­ditions of the Univer it)'. I knew all of m , predeces ors and worked ver - closely with three of them.

"It _hall be my objective to put th niver ity ahead and I know I will have your full cooperation.

Immediately after the regents' meeting Dr. Ford conferred first with the committee and then, ith the board. Hi alar wa fixed at ... 15 000 a ear plus pay for a care­Lak r at the large re iden e which th niversity maintain for its pres­ident at 1005 Fifth treet . E.

A a hi tory lecturer Dr. Ford was one of the mo t popular speak­ers on the Minne ota faculty. Oft­en he was cheered by his large lec­ture clas es of 500 or 600 when he finished speaking in Burton hall au­ditorium. During the last few years pressure of increasing admini trative duties ha led him to give up lectur· ing to undergraduate tudent.

Dr. Ford has been associated with the University of Minnesota since 1913 when he left a position as pro­fessor of modern European history in the University of Illinoi to be­come professor of hi tory and dean of the graduate school at the reque t of President George E.

In a statement explaining his vote for Dr. Ford, Dr. A. E. Olson, Du­luth regent said:

" I feel that Dr. Coffman and his administrative associates, a m 0 n g whom Dr. Ford was outstanding, have been champions of the liberal viewpoint on popular education. They have not believed that the best ability was found in the aristocracy of wealth alone but was distributed without reference to social or eco· nomic classes. In voting for Dr. Ford, I feel sure that this liberal and model program will be con· tinued at Minnesota."

Minnesota's Regents

In a talk delivered on the occasion oj the Zaying oj the cornerslone oj Vincent Hall on December 20, 1937, Fred B. nyder '81, member oj the Board oj Regents since 1912, dis· cussed the admini tration oj the Uni· versity. It seems appropriate to re­peat at this time his remarks con· cerning the personnel and the activi· ties oj Minnesota's Regents down through the years. The jollowing is a quotation jrom his talk:

The management of the niversity is ve ted in a Board of Regent, made up of twelve member, elected by the Legi lature or in default of elec· tion, appointed by the Governor. Since the Univer ity wa founded there have been all told 135 Regents, three of whom have been women. If you ask: "Oh, Regent , what of the Day? and what have you wrought?" I shall an wer, they have honestly administered the expendi. ture of millions of dollar in the construction of building, in enlarg. ing the campuses here and at the

chools of Agriculture, and in the payment of alaries to teaching and service staff. They have handled trust funds aggregating several mil· lions of dollar . They have elected five most worthy Pre idents, and ap· pointed a taff of teacher which at first was on ly seven but which i now approximately eight hundred on full·time ba is. They have over een

th in lruction of 2LI3300 indi\ id· ual tudent. In 1873 the) i_ ued the first degree, onl} two, in 1937 2,585. They hay i ued a 1 tal of 50386 d grees up to June, 1937.

Today there i an att ndan of 14,400 tudents of ollegiat grade. If you add to tho e re ei ing in· truction at the hool of uri ul·

Football

THE Gopher open the second half of the 1938 schedule on the grid­

iron again t lorthwestern at Evans­ton Saturday. And there i plenty of trouble ahead. FollowinO' the en­gagement with the Wildcats the Min· ne otan meet Iowa, otre Dame and Wi con in. Both orthwe tern and

i con in have the trength to make bids for the conference champion-hip \ hile otre Dame i seeking

national honor_ which means that the Gopher mu t play at top form in all these battle to retain their sectional and national leader hip.

* * • For the fir t time inee the open­

ing game of the ea on with Wash­ington the Gophers should be at full tr ngth next aturday. Harold Van

Every has been working in his regu­lar po ition at left halfback in the practic se ion during the past week and he will be in condition to a ume heavy responsibilities. His value to the team was rather clear­ly and emphatica ll demonstrated again t Michigan when he entered the game ju t long enough to toss the two forward pas e \ hich made the difference between victory and defeat.

* * * It mu t also be remembered that

he an run and kick as well a pass and he i a dep ndable performer on defense. The attack will be further trengthened by the fact that ilbur

Moore and Larry Buhler can return to their regular job at right half and fullba k. This will increase the effectiveness of th se two ball carriers who have con tinued to star even while playing out of position against Iebra ka Purdue and Michigan.

147

Moore ha had to confine hi train­ing to light exerci e sinee his ankle injury in the Michigan conte t but he will be ready for service this

aturday. * * *

The Minnesota line ha performed valiantly in stopping a flock of peedy and hard running backs dur­

ing the fir t half of the campaign and, barring injurie to key men, the trong line play will continue. Bob

Johnson and Allen Rork who ha,-e not been listed as first tringers in the forward wall becau e they have not been in the starting line-up will play increasingly important roles in the play of the line. Each man can handle either the tackle or the guard position and thi versatility together with all-around ability makes these men extremely aluable to Bernie Bierman and the Gopher cau e.

* * * George Franck and 1arty Chris­

tiansen will undoubtedly be called upon for plenty of _ervice in the backfield while two ophomores Joe Jamnik at half and Ed teinbauer at fullback will al 0 be available. Another right half reserve from the ophomore rank is Bob PaHrath

who ha entered the line-up on a couple of occa ion already thi ea on. Two Yeterans George Gould

and Phil Belfiori, have abilities which will probably be used during the second half of the campaign. Halfback Leland John on of Wadena has not yet completely recovered from the leg injury uffered in the

ashington game. Capable end replacements are

available in the per ons of Earl Ohl­gren and the two ophomores, Bill Johnson of layton and Bob Bj ork­lund of 1inneapolis. John on won a firm place in the hearts of the Min­ne ota fan with hi catch of the long pass from an Every preceding the scoring of the touchdown again t

iichiO'an.

* * * There is a lack of deep reserye

trength and this will be felt again t teams which are rich in replacement at all po ition8 and especially against lo tre Dame which boasts three or

four teams of pia er of near! equal strength_ quads of at least 33 Minne ota players will make the trips to Evanston, outh Bend and Madison but it i not likely that more than 18 will see much service in the games. The responsibility for fin-

148

ne ota' ontinued succe during the r mainder of the 1938 season IS

checked up to those iron men of the quad. They mu t tay in the game.

Minn otan talk of the Michigan Jinx but they are prone to forget the misfortun which have beset the Gopher of the past in games at Evan ton. Back in 1922 the Minne· sotan appeared to be well on their way to a fairly deci ive win over the Wildcat at Evan ton. Following a march down the field , Fullback Otis McCreery plunged over the Purple goal line but the ball plopped from hi arm and wa grabbed by a

orthwestern player who galloped 102 yards for a touchdown. The final core wa 7 to 7.

* * * Then in 1928 the Gopher of that

year were having everything pr tty much their own way when a Wild· cat ba k picked up a Minne ota fumble and hiked 83 yard for ix point. The final core wa Minne· ota 9, orthwe tern 10.

* * * At Evan ton in 1933 the Gopher

made 249 yards from crimmage and Pug Lund brought the kickoff at the beginning of the second half back to the orlhwe tern 20·yard line before he wa topped but the final core ~ a 0 to O. Five Gopher fumbles which were recovered by the Wild· cat had much to do with the final outcome of the game. Alfon e, Lund and Beise had a field day in the ball· carrying department but fumble put a top to the Minnesota advance .

* * * And then of course there was that

game in the mud and rain at Evans· ton a r cen tly as 1936. orth· we tern got it scoring chance on th re overy of a Minne ota fumble plu yardage on penalties which made it nee ary to advance the ball Ie than five yard from rimmage to core the touchdown which put an end to the sensational Gopher win· ning treak.

Thi may be the year for Minne-ota to g t the s oring breaks in

Dyche stadium. The Gopher how· ever will go into the game depending upon fundamentally ound football, an alert defens , and the good right arm of Harold Van Every to bring victory.

A ording to pre ent plans, the quad will pend Friday night in

Mi lwauk and then move on to Evan ton aturday morning.

Gophers Defeated by Northwestern

Minne ota tea m s h a v e tbeir troubles in Evan ton and not ince 1929 have the Gopher won a game in Dyche tadium. The numerous bit of misfortune which have plagued the Minne otans in their games in Evan ton bid fair to de­velop in the mind of Gopher fol­lower a jinx legend as ominous as the one formerly held concerninO' the Michigan eri _

In 1928 a memb r of an outplayed Purple eleven picked up a Minne­sota fumbl and hiked some 80 vard for the touchdown which gave the Wildcats a one point victory. In 1933 the Gopher gained ground just < b ut as they pleased but fate in­tervened in behalf of the oppo ition when they neared the goal line. The final core wa 0 to O. A fumble and a penally gave orthwe tern the ball practically on the Minne ota goal line in 1936_

that no t am need to make apologie for a d feat at the hands of the 1938 ~ ildcats. They howed champion­, hip class throughout the afternoon,

The Gophers made three magnifi. cent goal line stands in the e ond half and might well have held their three point lead to the final gun but for the fourth in a erie of breaks which put Northwestern in s oring po ition.

Late in the third quarter, George Franck fumbled and the Wildcats re­covered the ball on the Minnesota 30·yard line. Ryan and Jefferson carried the ball forward to the 19-yard line. At this point the Goph rs bra ed and Bob Bjorklund re ov·

ered a Wildcat fumble on a fourth down play on the 21-yard line.

A few plays later orthwestern punted to the Minne ota ~. The Go­pher were unable to make a fir t down and Van Every got awa a kick which was caught by the wind and dropped on the 20-yard line to give the ildcats another coring opportunity. Running play failed to make yardage but an unu ual pass put the ball on the 5-yard line, here it was first down and goal to go.

Thi particular pa s wa partly blocked and no fewer than three Minnesota men touched the ball with their finger tip but failed to knock the ball directly to Lhe ground . Rathel' it wa deflected into the arms of a orthwe tern player who hap· pened to be on the ground on the 5-yard line.

The ildcat aO'ain were unable to get pa t the Gopher in four do\ nand Minn ota took the ball on Lh 3-yard line. Once aO'aill the wind took a hand in tlle proceedings and an Ever r's ki k was short to the 32-yard line. Completed pa ses advanced th ball to the 12 but on th next serie of downs the brilliant defen iv work of the Gophers set the opposition ba k to the 17. From tllis point the ildcat attempted a placekick which wa both 10\ and wid.

Thus the Gophers had stopped tluee uc sive thrusts on their goal

line and it appeared that they would now be able to run or kick their way out of trouble for the remainder of the game. By their defensive play they had certainly earned a rest from the hammering of the powerful Wild­cats right on their goal line.

But unfortunately, their troubles were not over. On second down after putting the ball in play on the 20-yard line, Larry Buhler fumbled and the ball was recovered by Method of lorthwestern on the Minnesota 19.

The Wildcats, encouraged by this latest twist of the fortunes of the game, earned a first down on the 8-

ard line from which point Jeffer· son went over for the touchdown. On the kick for the extra point the ball hit the goal po t and the score wa 6 to 3.

On the econd play following the kickoff, a long pass from Van Every was intercepted by Habenstein who ran it back to the Minnesota 26-yard line. The game ended a few plays later with Iorthwe tern holding the ball.

The first half gave the fan a di -play of colorful football with first one team and then the other taking the ball into scoring territor '. On the first play following the opening kickoff to Minnesota Wilbur Moore broke away on a 17-yard run to carry the ball to the 50- ard line_ when tlle Gophers were forced to punt, the Wildcats reversed the pro· ceeding when Haben tein carried the ball back to the Minnesota 35. The Gophers held and Jefferson kicked out of bound on the Minnesota 2-yard line.

Following two e..'{changes of punts the Gophers set the ildcats back on their own 8-yard stripe. Minnesota took the ball in midfield on a punt and adyanced it to the [ orthwe tern 28 to be in corinO' territory. loore,

an Every and Buhler were gaining consistently. The Minnesota advance wa stopped at that point however when a pas from VanEvery was in· tercepted.

Minnesota

Women

ALUMNAE are anxious that all groups of Minnesota women be

represented in the assignment of pace in the new Minnesota nion

building. The Union will be coedu­cational which will mean, of course, that the women students will be ac­corded an equal use of the building with the men students.

The final plans for the arrange­ment of the interior of the building have not been completed and no set allocation of space and quarters has been made. It has been uggested that provision be made for lounge, and possibly dining room., accom­modations for the women on the Uni­versity staff and also for the wives of faculty members.

Private dining room and other quarters will be available for alumni dinners and other events as is the case in the present building. There is a possibility that the alumni as­sociation will have office quarters with adequate reception room space in the building.

The Union will serve as a campu center for all parts of the University family including the students, the faculty and taff, and alumni. Ground for the new building will be broken sometime before January 1 and it is expected that the building will be ready for occupancy by the late sum­mer of 1940.

Mechanical Ballyhoo

Yes, it's another edition by Editor Gladys Wallene '34E, only girl in a class of 46 Mechanical Engineering grads, cla s of 1934. In the Class Notes, elsewhere in this i sue, are condensed excerpts from the letter of a number of the class members. Others will follow in coming con­secutive numbers of your Weekly. Miss Wallene acts as centrifugal force for the class, keeping m mbers in touch with each other by means of these leller , which she ha multi· graphed, clipped together, and sent out to all members. Now that this year's is ue is out of the way, Miss Wallene is putting all energy toward effecting a 100 percent five-year re­union on Alumni Day next June.

Many are already enthu iastically planning, and our be t wi he go toward complete succe for the plan.

Some interesting stati tics are also contained in Ballyhoo: forty. five per· cent of the das are married; and there are already five boy and a girl in the new generation. Only nine did not contribute letter to this edition, but everyone i accounted for, ge· ographically and- hall we ay, in· dustrially? Mis Wallene's own con· tribution will appear in da note in the near future.

There were few alumni meetings anywhere in the tate that he did not attend during

hi incumbency. In 1927, on the oc­ca ion of the twenty-fifth anniver ary of the graduation of his clas, Mr. Martin wa elected chairman of the committee in charge. This class un· del' his direction undertook to raise a loan fund to perpetuate the mem­ory of 1902. 0 succ~ ful was Mr. Martin leader hip that he wa unanimously -elected as permanent pI' ident of the group.

CANOE Cou TRY. By FLORE E

PAGE JAQUE . ILLUSTRATED BY FRA . CIS LEE JAQ E . $2.50

Reviewed by Helen G. Aker '26, '30G, Instructor in Current Lilera­ture, General Extension Division University of Minnesota.

It i alway interesting to am upon a book about the tate in which one live, and e pecially so when the book i gay and informal as well a informative. CA OE COU TRY, published thili month by the ni­versity of Minne ota Pre , will re­veal to many Minnesotan the beauty of the Minnesota north country. The book i an account of a canoe trip taken in northern Minne ota and the International Boundary country by the author, Florence Page Jaques and her artist husbal'ld, Franci Lee Jaques. Mr. Jaques illu trate the story in bold black and white draw­ings of fore t cene and northland animals.

At the beginning of the book, the two collaborator are in ew York City, di cu ing pas ible vacation. "I'll have to take you to the outhern limit of the north," Lee Jaque i aying. Then he tell hi wife of

northern Minne ota, of the "great stretches of wood where he had hunted deer in hi childhood," of "immense skie ," the mu keg, pine and tamaracks, and of the "hundred and hundreds of lake cattered through the forest, like pieces of a mammoth jig saw puzzle." Mr. J aque ' talk create enthu ia m and he brings out his maps of the canoe country, then photograph , and finally, a enthusia m mounts, com· plete camping equipment, a mall tent, an axe, a bevy of pail , fi hing tackle, coffee pot, and skill l.

The combination prove irre i t­ible, and the reader is not urpri ed to find that the next entry in Mrs. Jaque' record i made in Duluth, Minne ota, and the next, in the little town of Winton, till farther north. Colorful ight begin at once. They see "an Indian family boarding the train, a fat chief, three women in scarlet and orange, and a mall In­dian boy with a huge ba ket of blue­berries. One of the women had a papoo e trapped to her back, which

rather urpri ed m. I thought that cu tom had ani h d long ago. '

The a tual cano tfip b gin at Winton on a lake of ' liquid ap­phire," with "gho t of a\ mill ' on its wood d shor . Mr. Jaqu re­gret that he can not take along a book ompanion th diarie of the early trader who explor d thi countr , Du Luth , and Pet r Pond, and Radi on, a da hing _ amp \ ho e charm and high pirit are reAected in hi book of voyage. Th fir t da' tra\·el provide a refre hingly new e perien e for Mr . Jaque. he like the fir t portage path, " the mell of hot pine , and the urve of

fern , the glimp e of dazzling \ ater ahead;" ,the fir t upper over a camp fire, and the fir t wild animal, a mu keat \\hi h wim a ro the du kine before th m. he goe to leep in the toot, remembering th

diary of one of the ea rly trader , " at Gho ~, nor Rattle nake , nor

pider, nothing can pre ent the fatigued oyageur from leeping."

The a aunt of the ne t thre week of travel by canoe and portag continue gayly. It i filled with de-cription of beautiful country, of

"circle lake \\ hich lay one after another like trung apphire," and of small i land a exqui ite that Mrs . Jaque peaks of them a "so bewitched you can't even talk there." But perhap a longer quotation i nece ary to how how both scen and mood of th I re t are inter· preted.

" It's cool thi morning. I'm writ· ing this in a tall pine wood. Giant pine range up a long hill , with clean open pa b tween the bronz trunk in tead of all th und rgrowth and fern and twi ted branche we u ually ha e. Morning unlight fall down on the matted n dl in bar of brown unnin and gold mi 1. Th wind ta te fre h, pungent and wild.

"How utterly dill rent thi fore t land i from the other two I've loved. Fontainebleau, a medieval dream fore t (of cour ewe aw it in April) ; the ew Fore t, th e en e f Eng­land's beauty, wh re Robin Hood might appear down any glade. Thi country n ver kn warn di val time; it came traight from the primeval into today. And a for Robin Hood,

The Center ha been in operation too short a time to pennit conclusive tatements a to what has been

be ventured. To begin with, a miaht haye been

expected. the succe of the institutes bear a direct relation hip to the uni­formity of training or experience of those who enroll, and al 0 to the de­gree to which the faculty of the in· titutes succeeds in limiting the cope

apathy of th voter in a certain vot­ing distri t. fter the ele tion it de· veloped that a donkey had been elect d to the po ilion of coumt com· milt eman. It illu trate the fa t, al 0, that many people fail to under-tand the trategic importance Of

di trict or precinct leader hip; they overlook the fact that the e leaders are actually elected at the primary ele tion and that they control the political machine.

Reform movements too frequently fail becau e they place all the tre on the head of the ticket and for­get that even though these leaders may be elected, they cannot function to the be t advantage and will probably be thrown out of office at the next election, unle s the re­form party control the local com­mittee members and in i ts upon their seeing that the right kind of political machine i maintained.

The individual in our large center often feel that his effort are futile, but we mu t not forget that many communitie , some of very large ize, have been cleaned up politlcall be­cau e a few people got together and started to build intelligently from the bottom up.

For the purpo e of th xperi-rnent general edu ation i viewed a if it w re divided into four areas, the 0 io·civic, vo ational, family and per onal. The principal film equen e will be made in th ocio-

civic area, but will be much more exciting than that academi de rip­tion make it ound. tarting with a picture that how the natural r -our e of Minn ota, mine, farm,

fore t , waterpowers and all, th pic· ture will progre into a hi tori al re iew of the tate, covering the p r­iod from 1865 to th W rid War. Then a third pha e will end a or to epitomiz th pre enl 0 ial prob­I ms of th tat, ba d on an ad­mis ion of gradual ocial hange.

FOR the fir t time In B rni Bierman returned to Minnesota

a football coach in 1932, the Go· pher were defeated by more than one touchdown aturday. nd in pite of the 19 to a core it can be aid that the Gopher I layed a trong

game against otre Dame and ev­eral indi idual member of the quad mu t b credited with performance well above the average level of play.

The Minn otan could mat h the oppo ition in everything but peed and re ervei. And it wa p ed, po e sed in large quantitie by the men of otre Dame, whi h cau ed the downfall of the Gophers at outh Bend. It required ju t three play with blazing peed a the important factor to give otre Dame the three touchdown of the afternoon. The remainder of the time the Iri h were held in check 0 thoroughly that they were able to make only one fir t down from scrimmage. This of cour e stand a a high tribute to the work of the Minne ota f rward wall.

The two regular end, Butch ash and John Mariucci, and the re rve wingmen refused to allow the peedy Iri h back an open our e around the end of the line. The oppo ing ball carrier failed to dent the center of the line except on the one oc a­sion when Zontini found a hole in the fir t quarter and continu d 84 yards down the field for a touch­down. If there had been hole in the Gopher line the otre Dame backs would have made good u e of them for they wasted no time in gctting up to the line of scrimmage.

When Minnesota had th ball, the linemen cleared the way through the fir t line of defense but b fore the Gopher backs could take advantage of the openings, the oppo ing econd­ary def nders blazed in to he k the advance.

L RRY BUIILER

In the clO ing minute of the fir t half the Gopher e. uted a double­lateral play whi h look d good for a touchdown until th uperior otre Dame peed cam into the picture.

hri tian en tarted from his own 37·yard line, bla ted ight yard through the lin and lh n lateraled to Larry Buhler. Buhl r hiked 12 yard and to ed the ball to George Fau t who had a lear field to the goal line. Zontini, howev r, "fa on hi trail and the otr Dame back pedaled up from behind to top Fau t on th otre Dame 27-yard line. A pa from an Every to Chri tian en advanced the ball an­other five ard ju t a the fir t half ended to halt the Minne ta oring threat.

Passes

ot until the final minut of the econd period did the Iri h hay e a

chance to play the ball from crim­mage in Minne ota territory. Go­ph r punt ju t w nt to the 50 and the ball wa carri d back five yard to the Minne ota 4$-yard lin. Ther wa practically no gain on th fir t play into the lin but th e ond play wa good for a tou hdown. Brown, otre Dame I ft end, out­di tanced th Minne ta ondary to take a pa from aggau on the la-yard lin and h went on acro for the score.

Throughout th fir t half, ith the exc ption of the two p rfe tly exe-

pend for the training of it leader , for Lha t broad training needed b an intelligent electorate, for the de­pendable research that add to the wealth and re ource of the tate.

The scholarly earch for truth and it pread through effective Leaching till persi t at the niver ity of Min­

ne ota, a they do in oth r merican univer itie. ot 0 many year ago that arne earch for truth wa going on in European univer itie. cholars and tudent were being ex hanged between our in titution and their .

Jo, the outstanding member of their facultie are in exile. Many of them have come to America to pur­ue their tudies in a co untry where

truth till reign supreme. The itu­ation in Europe i a di heartening pe tade. It i a challenge to every

man woman, and hild in Minne­ota to make ure that "i t cannot

happen here." Thi i not an idl e fear. There are

tho e in this country who for elfi h end would welcome a fa ci t dic­tator; who desire grea tly to limit the power an d privileges of the rna se of the people. They would re tri ct education to the favored few_ They wou ld not even hoos the e f w on th basi of demonstrated su­perior ability_ Rather, they would demand that each student in an in-titution of higher edu ation should

be required to pay the entire co L of his training. In that way would our coun try r eturn to that long di ca rded prin iple of the ari tocracy of wealth. In that way would we deny our be­lief in those principl for which our forefather truggled vali antly, and which are the bulwark of our y t m of public education.

I r al ize that in the great common­wealth of Minne ota f w, if any, fa­vor a departure from the principles of democra y. If the ques tion i put

clear! and the line are sharpl drawn ther i n doult, h r th people of Minne ota , ould wi h to align Lhem elve. But the i u are noL alway brouaht out into th op n. The dev r propabandi t who would change our tem of government do noL begin by ugge ting that , change from democracy to ome form of "i m. They make capi tal of the evere e onomi iLuation, of un mploym nt, of the diffi ulty of se uring the nece . ar fund for du­ca tional and go ernmental purpo They note th ne ari ly large bud-get of our chool and in. tiLution of higher edu a tion. They e the temporary sa ing in ta es which wo uld re ult if tb e budget could be dra ti ally redu ed.

It require no high l trained ex­pert to ee that edu ational co t call be cut only by on or more of the follo, ing method : limiting enr ll­men t in higher educational in titu­tion ; requiring tudent to pay all or a t lea t a con iderable portion of the 0 t of lheir training; r du ing the size of th tea hing taff; in rea -ing the ize of th la es laught by each teacher; increa ing lh numb r of the Ie qualifi d memb r of th taff in on tra t , ith the more able

a grea t expan_ion in the tate g , ernment. Hu "'e urn of

mone - have been spent in Minne­ota a in other tate for highway. imilar expenditur • have been made

for other projects and en -ice de­manded by the people. Yet durin o­thi entire period of tremendou. ex­pan ion there i one thing which mu t not be 10 t from ight. The Cni­yer it · has not been re pon ibl for an ignificant increa in the tate' debt. The maintenance appropria­tion. for the eighte n year 1921 to 1939, ha"e averaged nl · 51,~ per ent above the 1921-22 appropria­

tion, and thi in the face of a doubling in enrollment. Thus it i lear that the niver it , ha not

p ia ed a greater burden on the lale through increasin'" expenditures.

Th lat Pre ident offman man ' tim ailed attention to the youth problem. he 0 ably tated, "outh d i r and need: (1 ) opportunity for

haye .ent youth to chool a a mean of olving their unemployment prob­lems. That method has been used ex­ten ively in recent year _ but even with the generou help of the gov­ernment, the youth problem eem a acute a it wa five year ago. Young people everywhere face a critical period. They are finishing high chool in larger and larger number but they ha,'e found it dif­ficult if not impo .ible. to ecure employment. They_ like many older people. have found bu ine and in­dustry employing fewer people due to a .harp drop in the demand for the products of heav)' indu try as well a for con umer goods. En­forced idlene. and its con equent ef­fect upon character and morale seemed to be their lot. The Univer-it)' has been doing its part to keep

you th employed and at the arne time fit them through education to find their place more readily in the world of work. ince 1\overober, 1933, ,\hen federal fund were fi t paid directly to college tudents to a. i t them in meetiu'" a portion of their colle"'e expen e_, the Dni,-er-ity of Minne ota ha co-operated in

every po. ible wa·. In 1937. for example 1.300 'OUll'" people from all but two countie of the tate were gi"en luden t work-relief at the L'ni­yersi ty of ~Iinne ola under the ~a­tionaf Youth dmini tration. In ad­dition to the federal grant. a pecial tate allotment made it possible to

add ,,5 per month to the amount which many 'Y tudelrts recei,'ed. The ,tate fund wa u.ed in "'eneral for non-Twin it)' tudents and helped such tudents to make up for board and room-a les inJportant item in the case of tudent li"in'" at home.

210

brin g the outh problem nearer to olution and I urge the Legi lature

to give th matter careful con idera­tion.

The que tion for the people to con­ider i not, What doe education o t? but rath er What does democ­

racy co l ? The que lion of para­mount importance is : re we willing to pay the price of democracy? Our forefather paid it and paid it will­ingly. The a rific d, and sacri­fi ed heavily to do it. They r ealized that a univer ity i not a charge but an in e tment in futures. Many of lhem have Ii ed long enough to ee that the wealth of the tate wa in­creased immea urably by the educa­tion they provided lheir children. This i alway o. tudenl in lhe long run pro ide the co t of their own education or a large share of it, and in turn they increa e the wealth of the tate ufficiently to pro ide a proportionale hare of the cost of education for the next generation .

hould the univer ities of the e middle western tate be wiped out, the in titution -educational, politi­cal. and . ocial - which we have through years of labor lriven to maintain, \ ould di integrate and dis­appear.

tate appropriation , even with the increase granted for the two previou bienniums, have fail ed to keep up with a rapidly increa ing collegiate enrollment in e 1921-22. By the elimination of positions, increa ing the burden on the lafI, and reduc­ing co t generally, the niversity existed for sixteen year on mainte­nance appropriations which never went beyond an increase of 10.04 per cent over 1921·22, and for the 1933-35 biennium actually fell to an amount 9.77 per cent below the 1921-22 figure. In term of individual tu­dent co t, the tate is now pending approximatel 56 nt where in 1921-22 it wa pending 1.00.

Of all of the educational and go -ernm ental nterprj e upported in whole or in part by the state, the Univer ity stand out in it willing­nes to cooperate during the tI'ying times which followed the busine s crisi of 1929.

In thi pamphlet the University i laying before the Legi lature a fair tatement of it need. The figures

and tables peak for them elves. The appropriation requested, $4,000,000 per year for the biennium, repre-ent a minimum if the niversi ty is

to keep its failh with the cili zens of the commonweallh. It i predi-ated upon the a umption whi h ha

be n reaffirmed year after y ar b the people of the tate through its legi lature r pr _enlativ , tha t lhe

niver it hould b open and a ail­able to all ; Ulat e ryon who can profit fr om it in tru tion hould b admiued; that e r ffort hould b made to provide the typ of in-truction be t uited to the need of

eery individual with due regard to hi aptitude_ and intere_ l. ' 0 I gi -lature ha ever b n willing to place a definite limitation on th n umber it would provide for nor ha it been \ illing to make of th niyer_it) an instituti on devot d to the training of the wealthy by requiring a h tu­dent to pay the entire co t of hi edu­cation. It i- m hope and that of the Reaent that th pre ent Legi -lature will continu to r affirm it beli f in thi fundamental principle of democrati education. .

The a eptan e of th prin iple lhat the ni er ity mu t be enti· ally free to all lead to but one on· lu ion: It mu t r ceive adequat upport. We. therefore, re_pecLfully

request the Legi lature to give erious con ideralion to the prob­

lem which the niver ily fa e . All of u realize what th niver ily manifold functions ar. It require little inve tigalion to discover what a rapid increa ha laken plac in the demand_ which the p oPle of the tate have made upon it er i s.

o reque t is being made for -pan ion in unnec ar y or unprofit . able way . All the Regenl are a_ k­in g i a maintenan e of r asonablc

tan da rd. Th appropriation grant d by the pa t two Leo-Uatur have enabl d the niver ity to r -gain om of th 10 t gr undo Ware headed in the right dire tion , but \I

till have a con iderable di tan e to go. Money expended for the main· tenance of th niver ity cannot b any ound rea oning be thought of a a drain upon lh tate' re ources. Rath r it i a gilt-edged inve l111 nt­an inv lment that a" ure the fu· ture. The r qu t whi h the R gents are making on bchal{ of the p ople of Minn ota i in reality an endow­menlwhich pay perpetual divid nd in it contribution to public wei· fare, to the physi al resour e f lh t> state, to a more nlighlened itizenry, and to the perp tuation f demo-ratic principles.

The is onsin contest marked the end of brilliant col/e!riate football career for many of these men. A_ a matter of fact. - it i quite po_ ible that the name of each of the eight enior who started the game will

appear in one or more of the nu­merou all-conference teams which will be announced thi week.

aturda - the Badger. who had defeated a trong . C. 1. . team in La Angele a week before and also had downed -orthwe tern, were .trongly fal'ored to trim ;\1inn ota. From the openina kickoff howel'er the opher took complete command of the ituation and onlv once was their goal line in an . da·nger. They gained a total of 336 ) ard- from .crimmage a. aaain.t 1-6 for Wis­can in and made 12 first down_ to sel en.

The Badger took the openinu kickoff and I,-ere forced to punt when they failed to dent the ~1innesota de­fen~e. George Franck. who wa one of the star of the afternoon. took the kick on his own IS-yard line and raced ba k to the 38. On the fir.t play from scrinmlage. Lany Buhler bla_ted throuah to the 4.8-yard line and a fir-t down. In thr~e play_. Moore and Buhl r picked up nine ) ard. n fourth down :'-loore took the ball on a reYer-e. broke out into an open field behind fine interferen e. and II a. caught from behind n the ,,'is on_in 16-yard line.

Georue Franck then ran in ide right end to gi' e the ophers a first down on the fi\'e- 'ard line. Here the Badger- rallied maanifi ntly to ,top the opher- ju_t in he. short of a tau hdoll'J1.

Followin rr a Badger punt. Franck reeled off til 0 I ng run. and loore pi ked up additional yardage to place the hall on the Wi_con,in 23-yard line. t thi- point the Badgers r cOI'ered a lin net a fumble. Hora Bell int r epted a pa: to keep Wise nsin ba k in their own territory.

The opher nearl ' had a touch­down earl , in the se ond quarter

,hen J aIm Mariucci raced into the clear for a pa but the throw from Van E ry wa over hi head. Lat r in that period a pa from Franck to Moore wa good for 30 yard to put the ball on the ll-yard line. Once again however the Badger recov­ered a Minne ala fumble.

In accepting the new Hy­draulic Laboratory at t. An· thony Falls in the Mississippi and speaking on behalf of the Board of Regents, Fred B. ny· der '81, chairman of the Board, discussed the early history of the site of the laboratory. His in· teresting talk is presented on this page. The new laboratory which is recogni=ed as one of the finest in the world U'as dedi­cated on the evening of ovem· ber 17. The certificate of com· pletion was presented to the University by R . C. Jacobson, acting state WPA administrator. The complete report of the dedi­catory program appeared in the

ovember 19 issue of the Alum· ni Weekl),.

Hennepin I land 10 e to, if not ac· tually on the ite of thi building. Bridge quare, no\ Gate\ ay park, wa the heart of bu ine , ith hanks. store and office on all ides. Ever

aturday farmers came to the square from all parts of Hennepin county with farm produce to barter and ell. thu putlina- new wealth in circula­tion; but the chief ource of wealth had b en from the beginnino- and till wa th timber, cut during the

with \ ater rights to be u ed tluough a tunnel 2.000 feet long to be built from the water level below the falls. under Hennepin I land and the ri\'e~ bed to ~icollet 1 land for water pow­er purposes. Construction of the tun­nel had reached the toe of lower -icoUet I land in the pring of 1869

when uddenl the limestone bed of the ri"er adjacent to this ite fell into the tunnel and. a it were a cry of fire. the words went forth • The fall are going out." People rushed to and fro on Bridge quare gesticu­lating and _peaking in hu~hed tones "The fall are aoing out' The ex­ci tement of it all i till vividly im­pres ed on my mind. oon trucks and farm wagons were hauling and and gravel. brush and debri of all kind from both ides of the river acro the brido-es to the lower end of the island and there dumped into the wirling water to be carried down beneath the hed of the river.

Moulton' pl~g mill. Ka uhe's ard mill and the Lland flour mills elevator \ hich stood on or nearhy thi ite were d Iro 'ed completel '. It was not until a coffer dam wa built about the opening in the river hed that the people \ ere ao-ain at ea e and went back to their vocations and bu~in _s with renewed hope and couraae for the future.

Leakage continued in the river bed for some ear. Finall with the aid of gO"ernment money and at a co t of nearly 900,000, a wall ix feet in width at the bottom, four feet at the top and forty feet high wa built from one ide of the river to the other beneath the lime tone ledge which make the floor of the Mi­si sippi river and this wall and the apl'On 0 er which the water ha so ~moothly glided for the past ° years

ha\ e kept the Fall of t. nthony inta l.

It is a trange oinciden e that th place wh re the river on e unlea hed it dormant pm er, threatened the ex­i tence of the fall , and de troyed 0

much property, should now be the ite of thi laboratory con tructed to

u e that power sub rvient to the will of man for ientific inve~ tigation.

Mr. E. A. Bromley took some photograph at the time of the break in the bed of the river showing the breach in the lime tone ledge, the wrecked building and the adjacent tructure. An enlarged print of

the e pi ture ha been made and i pre ented to the Univer ity with the request that it hall be hung and kept in the laboratory.

In the progre of xcavation for this laboratory heap of awdu t 10 feet deep were remo ed in order to locate its foundation, and heavy masonry walls were removed, of which there are no available record. It is po ible their con truction wa due to the break in the river bed.

The city of Minneapoli acquired this building ite with preference water right , and e tabli hed her it pumping plant to furni h water to the t. Anthony di tricl. The old water turbine wa found intact cov· ered by 30 or 40 feet of debri . Forty feet below the water level above the fall a tunnel, used to conduct a muni ipal water upply from the is­land to th main land, wa found in

good ondition, and i no\\ u ed a a ervi tunnel to thi h rdrauli development.
