Plays That Made
Football Famous

Eleven game men, working to-
Sether like machine, makes up the
ideal football team. Few teams.
however, are fortunate enough to
have eleven such men. Most teams
have few, some have one, and some
have none. p. B. Venable, who has
seen most of the games on Rollins
Field in the last twenty years tells of
"A splendid exhibition of gameness:
1T was in 1908 when Rolla played
Missouri and was beaten 40 to 0. The
Rolla captain, a big man named
Hummel, was easily their star, but
he had been hammered so hard that
in the second half he was hardly able
to follow his team. At last after
making a good tackle he was too
weak to rise, but when finally picked
up he was still full of fight, and
urged his men not to give in. Half
a dozen times after making tackles
he would have to be picked up and
set on his feet, but would still be
heard rallying his men to make a
final stand. Just few minutes be-
fore time was called he was carried
to the sidelines and got tremendous
ovation from the bleachers. Consid- /,
ering how hopelessly he was beaten |
and how he had played two-thirds of
The game himself, always consid-
cred his work one of the best exhibi-
ions of pluck l have ever SEEN"

Teachers Who Inspired

Doctor r. Kedzie. professor OF
chemistry at the Michigan Agricul
tural College, was one of the most
exacting instructors have eyel
known" said Dean F.. b. Mumford
He had no sympathy for a man
tl-at did not make good. 1t was al.
most impossible to make him believe
that man should be excused for any
reason. Yet every student receiving
instruction under him felt more
grateful to him than to any other
teacher. He established invaluable
habits of accuracy and promptness.
He was regarded as the greatest
chemist in the state during his life.
He was a man of dauntless cour-
age. l remember when studying Or
ganic chemistry he was discussing
the subject of nitro-glycerin in this
the subject of nitro-glycerine. He
would hold little bottle in his hand
and say: There is enough nitro
glycerine in this bottle to blow you
ard me and the whole building to
kingdom come, if | should drop it.
Another man who has inspired
me throughout my life is Dean E. j.
Davenport of the college of Agricul-
ture of the University of Illinois. At
the time | was in school he was pro-
fessor of Agriculture in the Michi-
gan Agricultural College He was a
brilliant man and philosopher. He
aroused the interest of his students
to wonderful extent.
'.In those days every student had
to do manual labor for which he
was paid eight cents an hour. This
was very unpopular Professor
Davenport conceived the idea of
the work investigatiOnal in
stead of requiring a man to go out
and spade or hoe without any idea
Di why he was doing it. He assigned
20 one student variety test on pota-
,ceS: to another. the thickness with |
which corn should be planted; to a |
.hird. the influence of shade on the |
Development of plants, requiring the !,
Students to do all the work necessary
c make success of the experiment.
rhe students became more interested
n manual labor than i'm class work.
Dean Davenport has had as large an /
influence in the development of ami
nal husbandry, agronomy and dairy
ng as any man in America"

ing to Indignation Phillips
In those college days Mrs. Clark
acquired her nickname because she
was tall and stately and Professor
| Phillips became "Indignation" after
he called a meeting of the fresh
men to resolve against the action of
students of Southern prOclivities
who tore flag into strips and tied
them on dOorknobs about town. The
Southern sympathiZerS were in the
majority and they broke up the
meeting and drove Indignation"
Phillips to cover.
Mrs. Clark readily agreed to go to
the school and speak. She was
dressed in a pink gown for luncheon
and had to hurry. not to miss the en-
gagement. The students went to the
assembly hall and appIauded gener-
ously when the wife of the speaker
was introduced.
Mrs. Clark, in her brief address.
spoke of the spirit of independence
and self-reliance in the American
boy or girl as compared with a
boy or girl in a foreign land. She
said that was one of the causes of
the high position the United States
occupies in the world. This spirit |
Of the American boy and girl is re-

City Star, Mrs. Champ Clark, the
wife of the speaker of the House OF
Representatives, was asked to sign
the visitors register. Mrs. Clark

When asked by Prof. E. D. Phil

Professor Phillips and Mrs. Clark
were college mates at the University
of Missouri in 1876. They lived
at the same boarding house. He
went there from Kansas City and she
from Bowling Green. They argued
across the boarding house table as
to which would be the greater me-
tropOlis as time went on, Bowling

Professor Phillips concluded that

Will deal with modern attempts to
formulate such a philosophy. Then
the relation of art to ethics and
science. and the correlation of the
