PENeCHICAGO GRAND CHAMPeFT. XVOBTH LAMBeCHICAGO 2ND PRIZE-PORTLAND Livesteek Shew Successes The Animal Husbandry Division of the College of Agriculture brought glory to the State Of California last fall in its very successful showing of fat stock at three International Expositions in this country. A great many prizes were won including eight breed championships and four grand championships against several of the most prominent agricul- tural colleges and breeders of the United States and Canada. During the first week in November, fat barrows, fat wethers and fat steers were exhibited at the Pacific International Livestock Exposition at Portland winning highest honors on fat barrows and fat wethers. Only three steers were shown, winning two seconds and one fourth prize. The fat wethers won easily in competition with the University of Idaho, Washington State College, Oregon Agricultural College, University of British Columbia and private breeders. We Claimed five breed cham- pionships and the grand champion wether 0f the show. Twelve head of the choicest wethers were then taken to the Kansas City Royal with Geo. Philip in charge, and repeated their victories; the grand champion sold at the close of the show for 50c a pound. The remaining wethers were then shipped to the greatest of all fat stock shows, the International at Chicago, where all the most prominent agricultural colleges and breeders of the country and Canada meet for final judgment. Again the California lambs gcwent over the t0pi9, California placing the Grand Champion VVether 0f the show on a grade lamb, a pen mate of the one sold at Kansas City, and shown here. This is the first time that a wether lamb won these honors at Chicago, a yearling having always won before and the j udge pronounced him the greatest lamb he had ever seen. The institution received much favorable comment throughout the circuit. t5li

V Illllll 10.3 a! lllllllllll'll Labor Day The regents of the University of California, every fourth year, set aside one day which will be given over to the students for the purpose of consolidated eHort in either beautifying the campus or performing some kind of work helpful to student activities. In order to accomplish favorable results it was essential that the day be given the whole-hearted support of all the students of the College. The work accomplished and the turnout of both students and faculty proves beyond a question of doubt that everyone in the institution had the day at heart, and for this reason the Labor Day of 1924 was a wonderful success. , The organization into classes with class leaders was the same as in previous years. There was this year one innovation, namely that of ap- portioning a job to the faculty and leaving them individually responsible for that job. The Senior and Junior classes, under the leadership of ttBillii Hos- selkus and Harold Angier, assumed the responsibility of planting the trees along the new road entering the University F arm. Oaks were planted 50 feet apart along both sides of the road. The Sophomores and Freshmen were alloted the biggest job of the day; that of moving the west and south fences of the athletic field, so that they would be in accordance with the new plans. A great amount of work was also done on the track, the baseball diamond and the foot- ball field. Much credit is due to the class leaders, Howard Burnett and ttRedti Detlefsen and to Prof. ttHerbtt Belton, Prof. Moses, Mr. Jacobsen and Mr. Greer. ttHerbii Dewar, who was general chairman of the day, certainly conducted things in first class order. One of the biggest features of the day was the way in which the faculty turned out and the way in which they went about their work. As far as work was concerned they were outstanding in being the most energetic and persevering of all organizations. Due to the able leader- ship of Prof. Abbott and to the hearty co-operation of all the faculty members, they were able to contribute something of no small value to the Associated Students. The excavation of the room underneath the Classroom building, which will serve as a meeting room for various or- ganizations, the Executive Committee, and as headquarters for the ttAggieit and the President of the A. S. U. E, is something of permanent value. Labor Day in college should be one day that every student can look upon as a day in which he has helped to contribute something of ma- terial andlasting value to his Alma Mater. The campus will unquestion- ably undergo radical changes in the future but most of the work accom- plished will be of a permanent nature. A great deal of credit is due to the student body, the faculty and the VVomens Farm Circle in aiding and supporting Labor Day and because of the untiring efforts of these organizations, the 1923 Labor Day will remain as one of the crowning events of the college year.
