The American Spirit.


The features of Quentin Roosevelt
as symbolizing the American spirit
during the war, have been selected
for perpetutation in the commemora-
tive monument to the French and
Americans who fell during the fight
ing in the Champagne region.
No choice could be more in keep
ing with American traditions. Few
of the hundreds of thousands of the
flower of Americas youth had a
more brilliant career in the world
battle against German Imperialism.
Lieutenant Roosevelt was a pilot
in the 95th Air Squadron and fell
battling in the air with the enemy in
1918. He was his fathers own son,
and one of whom his illustrious pro-
genitor was justly proud.
Americans will applaud this choice
because Lieutenant Roosevelt was a
typical American, and combined in
his character were the traits that
made the former president famous.
He chose the most hazardous
branch of the service and he died a
hero as he would doubtless have lived
had his life been spared.
He typified the same courage and
self sacrifice that every American
soldier had in his makeup and that
he should represent the thousands
from the United States, who gave
their lives, for the same cause as he,
is entirely Appropriately

good if not better basket ball than

able to locate the basket, missing
numerous chances to score. Time
and time again Hurley worked the
ball through the Wakefield defense

for the basket. Hurley made but
one point in the first half and not
until the second half was well ad-
vanced did they score field basket
Wakefield made a field basket and
scored three points with free throws
in the first half, and in the second
half registered four field baskets.
