biniGHTS AND FULLBACKS: THE biggest thing that happened in ' 49 was MSC ' s new status as a member of the Big Ten. Regis- tration headaches were hardly over when the im- portant Michigan game filled the NEW Macklin Field beyond capacity. Much depended on State ' s showing that day. Remember? Never had s o many done so much in three months. Never had spirit run higher. An all-college dance, complete with fall trappings. set the social wheels to rolling. About mid-October MSC ' s nostalgic grads arrived en masse for Home- coming. They stood in cafeteria lines laughing and talking about their year, promising to look up friends present and past. They sat huddled together in the stadium to cheer a second Homecoming Queen and another victory for Alma Mater. The IFC-Pan Hellenic dance was seasonally spook and pumpkin for Halloween. Crossed sabers and military polish installed pretty coed corps- sponsors at ROTC ' S Coronation Ball. You ' ll remember the big college functions. But Fall Quarter ' 49 meant more. House parties, coffee sessions, a last minute date now and then, the lost tux stud, the late-minute deadline, a trip to your ad- visor, the late arrival of a check, and yesterday ' s State News. While all these occupied your time and effort, the leaves fell and the campus colored to bright reds, seared amber. If you hadn ' t been aware of State ' s beauty until then, you probably cut a ten o ' clock be- cause kicking up the leaves and breathing a bit of fresh fall air was more inspiring than Econ History. It was a touch of the ivy that would stay with you, come war or high prices. When the Big Ten news broke, the Sunday before final week, you left typewriter, term paper, and Tol- stoy, to celebrate. President Hannah ' s message, the ovation, a record-breaking rally, and Fall quarter was history.
