Tuskegee, like the Niagara Falls, the
Grand Canyons of Colorado, the Desert
of Sahara and many other wonders of
the world cannot be told you must see
for yourself. The people of Tuskegee
had been preparing for the Chicago Par
ty that visited the institute last week
for more than a month and they re
ceiyed very hearty welcome.
The Chicago Party left their home
town Monday, May 22nd, about noon
and numbered about forty. They went
to Tuskegee in a chartered Pullman
car and ate meals in the diner both GO
ing and coming. Breakfast was served
Tuesday morning between Birmingham,
Alabama and Montgomery.
When the party arrived at Tuskegee,
Tuesday afternoon, they were greeted
with yells and were escorted to their
dormitories by the band. The men re-
tired at the famous Rockefeller hall.
The Southern hospitality was SO
great and the favors given to the party
so numerous that we could not but feel
somewhat embarrassed. We had the
extreme pleasure of meeting Major
Motion, Mr.. Logan Warren and Mr..
Isaac Fisher and many others who were
all invited and attended a reception
given in honor of the Chicago Party
Wednesday afternoon, by Mrs. j. ].
Jones of the '06 class. At the recep-
ton Major Motion delivered an ad.
dress which was very timely and to the
point.
Tuesday afternoon the students had
drill contest which was won by
Company B under the command of
Capt. Thomas.
Wednesday morning we visited all of
the buildings Of the institute as fol,
lows: The Post Office which is second
class Office and has a postmaster and
two clerks. They are all Colored and
the postmaster is appointed by the pres,
ident. and receives a salary Of 1890
per annum. The post-ofice downtown
is third class Office.
We visited the Carnegie Library
which cost $4,000, the millinery shop
laundry, broom factory, tin shop
blacksmith shop, harness shop, electric
shop, paint shop, tailor shop, shoe shop
printing office, carpenter shop, plumb
ing shop, automobile shop, dairy, hos
pital which cost $4,000, agricultural
building, veterinary hospital and the
power house all of which were built by
the students.
In the automobile shop we met mo
named jana an African who guided
Roosevelt through the jungles of AT
rica on his lion hunt, who is now work
ing his way through school aided by
the Colonel.
The dining room known as Thomp
kins' Hall seats more than 1000 people
at one time.
Thursday was commencement day
and Inauguration day. Part one begar
at $3.50 a. m. and Mr.. C. A. Barnett, OF
zoe class, spoke in behalf of the elias:
who presented the school with gift
of nearly 100000.
Part two began at 200 p. m. with
Mr.. Wilcox of New York acting as
chairman. Many of the trustees were
present including the great millionaire
and philanthropist, julius Rosenwald
who donated 100000 to the Booker
T. Washington memorial fund. The in
auguration was the grandest that We
have ever witnessed.
Friday we visited the farms and the
magnitude of them is beyond the i'm
apinatiye mower of man.

Parmenter, of Harvard, center the
same year. was man who showed
the possibilities of a center position for
light man. Altho he was much
lighter than Ketcham, the Yale CEN
ter and Bluthenthal, the Princeton
center, he played them both to a
standstill. He made up in aggressive
ness what he lacked in weight, was
an accurate passer. and seemed to

the opponents plays.

WILDCATS ELATED
Victory Over Tigers Gives Ag-
gle Stock a Big Boost.
EmpOria NOrmais Spring Sur
prise by Defeating Indians.

The Kansas Agsies have at last at
tanned one of their big ambitions-at
last they are ranking close to the top
of the MISSOURI Valley conference as
a result of their tie game with X U.
a few weeks ago and their defeat of
the Missouri Tigers Saturday by the
margin of one point. And now Aggie
supporters are doping it out that they
will have a valid claim to the confer
ence championship if K U. succeeds in
defeating Nebraska and is, in turn, de-
feated by Missouri.
The Aggie victory over the Tigers
was something of a surprise and many
impartial dopesters had conceded the
game to the Tigers, but after whirl-
wind start, the Missourians slowed up
perceptibly and lacked the necessary
punch at critical times. The Missouri
score came early in the first quarter
and at the time it was made the
failure to kick goal following the
touchdown did not seem to matter as
it looked like a runaway.
The Aggies Braced Up.
But the Aggies braced from then on
and when they scored a touchdown in
the second period. Randalls cinched
the game by picking a perfect goal
Thereafter neither team was able to
get within striking distance and every
! time the Tigers appeared to be begin
ming a drive the Wildcats checked
/ them early in the action. Randalis
and Wells were the individual stars foi
the Aggies and Stankowsh played
most brilliantly for the Tigers.

| Saturday in Kansas football circles
when the Emporia Normal team of
Bill HargIss humbled its old enemy

Teachers completely outclassed the

GAMES THIS WEEK
Washburn Prepares to ''Take 1t
Out on WheatshOckerS."
X. u. Goes to Nebraska and
Aggies to Oklahoma.

With the Paramount Wheatshockers
on their schedule for this week, the
Washburn Ichabods were ready to be-
gin preparations for piling up a score
next Friday that would blot out, as
far as possible, memory of the diSaS-
trous defeat at the hands of the Jay
hawkers last week. No serious in
juries were received in last Saturdays
game and it is generally thought that
the Kennedy machine will be in good
condition and able to win an easy VIC
tory over the Hoover men.
With both K. U. and the Aggies
playing out of the state this week, and
with no Kansas conference battles
scheduled that could have any bear
ing on the title, the Washburn game
promises oe be one of the headliners
in the state.
X. U. Against Nebraska.
Interest in the Missouri Valley will
center on the Lincoln clash between
the Cornhuskers and the Jayhawkers
Saturday, and with the dopesters con-
ceding Kansas a better chance of
humbling the Nebraskans than they
have had in years, the game will draw
a large crowd from the ranks of the
Sunflower gridiron followers.
Two Kansas teams will invade Ok
! lahoma this week, the Aggies going to
Norman to play the Sooners and the
Haskell Indians playing Henry Ken
dali at Tulsa. Interest in the east
this week will be largely confined to
the Yale-Princeton engagement at
Princeton. altho the Harvard-Brown
game will draw attention from the
fact that Brown easily defeated the
Eli last week.
/ Important Games.
The most important bookings for
the week are:
| Tuesday-U. of Texas against U. of
Arkansas, at Austin.
Thursday-Friends against South
western, at Wichita.
Friday-Fairmount against Wash
burn, at Topeka; Emporia Normal
against Bethany, at Emporia: Baker

He INSPIRES men
That's Why Peck Is Such
Valuable Man to Pittsburg.
MauIbetsch Mystery Solved by
Detroit Sport Writer.
BY FRANK G. MENKE.

Just before the Pittsburg-Pennsyl-
vania game, an old friend of Glen
Warner ambled up to the Panther
coach, and asked:
How does it look for to-day! are
you going to VIM

He Inspires Men.
Never in all my football career
have I known man who could in
spire his mates as does Bob Peck,
said Warner afterward. His power
to enthuse his companions and fill
them with his wonderful fighting
spirit is uncanny. He is to Pittsburg
what Tom Shevlin was to Yale"
Peck, undoubtedly, is one of the
greatest ConleFS lIidl ever pidyeu the
game-if not the greatest. And the
peculiar thing about it is that he be-
gan his career as a halfback and be-
came a center only after he had so in
jured a leg that it seemed as if his
days as a football player were over.
Peck was the all-American center
last year. And he is sure to repeat
in 1916. His playing against Syracuse
alone would almost merit the honor
for him. 1t was Peck who was in ev-
cry play; Peck, with his 1875 pounds,
who bowled over White and Schlater,
the 150-pound Orange guards time and
again; it was Peck who sprinted down
the field with the ends and floored
the punt catchers with startling fire.

Clears Up Mystery.
H. G. Salsinger, sporting editor of
, the Detroit News-Tribune, has solved
the Johnny Maulbetsch mystery. In
1914 the great Wolverine halfback was
a sensation, cutting to ribbons every
line he hit. And last year he failed
miserably. The same lines he had
fractured in 1914 threw him back,
often for losses, in 1915. Why the
form reversal?
Well, here is Salsinger's clean-cut,
logical eXplanation-and Salsinger
knows whereof he speaks:
Maulbetsch this year is probably
just as good as the year he played
Harvard. He was probably as good
last year; and did nothing: And the
whole reason is this:
I'm 1914 Michigan had one of the
best lines in her history; last year and
this year two of the weakest Just as
great fielding baseball team can
make a pitcher, a good line makes a
backfield star. Maulbetsch is not an

To successfully buck line a player
has to have a line that will prevent
the opposing linemen. from bucking
him. Maulbetsch has been bucked to
a standstill by the fellows on the other
side of the scrimmage line who break
thru his own first defense and sit on
himk They get him before he really
gets started. Maulbetsch's line in 1914
was making holes in the Harvard de-
