patch of pertinent affairs and the construction of a sound future operations base. At the annual meeting of a special commit- tee selected to award the six full four-year tuition scholarships to qualified high school stu- dents, a precise judicial judgment is exercised. Here is the list of qualified high school sen- tors, says the secretary, at the opening of the rneeting. You will find, and she passes cop- ies to attending members, the exact grades and accomplishments of the students we are considering. The committee members discuss the reports and the various personalities concerned until only those to whom the scholarships rightfully belong remain on the list. This selection is re- plete with a series of no small difficulties. How- ever, in past years a competent scholarship committee has witnessed the fruitation of their selections. A yearly fund is established to make pos- sible this serving of youth program effective during the academic term. Lectures are given by various University 'department heads on current subjects at alumni gatherings held in the Chapel. By conducting these lectures and various social affairs as Well as prompting alums to come to Homecoming celebrations, the Alumni Association keeps its membership well intee grated. Thus it is, that we find the interest of the University circumscribed within the sphere of, not the occasional, but the active alumni. DAYTON DENIOUS . . . Alumni President.

Thus in a short time are the seeds of mal- content sown which become a flourishing bay tree shading the entire coaching staff. Produc- ers oi winning teams thrive in the tree's shade, but those who lose are hung from its highest branch by a stout alumni rope woven of con- solidated opinion. Mixing in society with alumni from other schools, these identical gentlemen, wheniques- tioned concerning their team, glibly reply: Well, we've had a tough break this year, just a tough break. ,But wait until next season rolls around: that team of ours is going to run up a mighty big score on your over-rated boys. Yes, that's the way things go, you can't expect a coach to produce a winner every year. At Homecomings these occasional alumni are hail fellows well met. Their jocular humor at the bonfire rallies, their air of knowing on the eve of a crucial game, and their boisterous hi- larity at pep rallies are quite akin to the pre- iling undergraduate enthusiasm. e occasional alumnae cluster in the soror houses and, after a close inspection, procee , ver a hand of bridge, to: My, this house is a ' ht, declares the dealer.

THE PUBLISHER . . . of The Pioneer and the Secretary of the Alumni Association, are the prin- cipal duties oi Randolph P. McDonough. Two no-trump, says a third. l think this place needs some new drapes. Don't you? Yes, it does, replies the fourth, but do you suppose the girls would take care of them? Now, now, let's not be too severe, soothes the original bidder, after all, we were coeds once. Let's discuss the matter further at our next meeting. But behind this scene of pragmatic alumni personnel, those truly interested in the better- ment of the University move and have their being. They are those who deftly attack the problem of aiding students and of projecting institutional plans. The alumni magazine, The Pioneer, edited by Secretary Randolph McDonough, is an ex- ample of this serious intent. Published monthly, under the auspices of the alumni, The Pioneer contains personal events interesting to the alumni world,- coupled with pithy articles on current affairs written by University professors and association members. Under the compe- tent guidance of Secretary McDonough, the so- cial, the business, and the financial meetings are co-ordinated. An integral division of the Alumni Associa- tion is its governing body, composed of an executive committee presided over by Dayton Denious, class of '27, The simplicity of this administrative setup assures the speedy dis- 0250
