most popular persons with the stu
dents, addressed the weekly meet
ing of the Geographic Society on
Thursday, February "a. Mr.. Krause
is quite globe trotter, having spent
much of his life in travelling. His
tales never lose their spell because
he has such an unusually individual
way of relating his experiences. Mr..

by the Biographies and it is hoped
he may favor them with another
talk later in the year.

Tennis Coach Resigns
Mr.. Fairbanks recently resigned
as tennis coach in order to serve as
baseball coach for the coming
months. Not only an expert tennis
player himself, Mr.. Fairbanks has
stood behind the tennis teams,
taught them the technicalities of
the game and been an all-around
booster for his players. He has had
a great deal of experience on the
baseball diamond and though he re-
gretted to give up the position of
tennis coach he found it would be
impossible for him to handle both
sports. Under Mr. Fairbanks coach
ing the baseball teams are bound
to be a success.
