ITO the ColorS."
BY Kenneth MacDougall
1t is almost dawn and cannot sleep,
From my window | see khaki-elad
Hurrying down the shadowy streets.
Rushing to join the colors again.
Other men in the garb of peace,
Sombre as sparrow or wren.
Straighten out kinks in their toll
worn backs,
For the colors ere calling again.
Through the chill spring mists thcro
floats q sound,
A bugle blares out-and then
My vision is blurred by tears of joy,
For the colors are calling again.
My soul is torn with a mad desire,
Enlist? Or stick to my pom?
My service stained uniform peers
from my trunk,
The colors are calling again.
Memories haunt me-the days that
are past,
When riding the mesa and plain:
And my hearts nearly broken to be
with my troop,
Back with the colors again.
A discharge drops out OF my old olivo
drab
An accident barred me; but when
The surgeons get tired. I'll sneak my
way through,
And be back with the colors again.

the west. But after the first five min
utes Of play there was no doubt Of
NOrthwestern's superiority. The Evan
ton squad Outplayed the Wolverines in

Northwestern's three touchdowns were
earned, while one Of Michigans was
fluke and opportunity for the secon
was afforded by penalties.

umphed over Cornell in one of the big

of Weston. the star quarterback and
