Appelquist found athletics and stu- dent body affairs in general to be in a negligent and indiff- erent state, and it is due in a great measure to him that l student morale prevails in such a marked degree today in 1 l '1 ' h 1 35 5 ' 1 ,i mis sc oo. 5 E- However, he was not able to be with the Dragons in 'Bt S' their banner year owlng to his appointment as coach of the l . . . .
