HAZEL HITCHCOCK

FORMER REDWOOD FALLS GIRL
STANDS HIGH AMONG UNIVER-
SITY WOMEN IN ATHLETIC
ACHIEVEMENT.

The last number of TO DRAGMA
the national magazine for the Alpha
Omicron Pi Fraternity, in the May
issue, makes flattering mention OF
Miss Hazel Hitchcock, formerly OF
Redwood Falls and a graduate of the
local school, who is now completing
her senior years work at the Univer-
sity of Minnesota.
Under the caption "Hazel Hitch.
cock, Tau's Athlete Mary Virginia
Goodman writes:
Tau has a new name to add tC
its knapsack of stars. Hazel Hitch
cock, graduating senior is the lu
minary in question. She stands high
among Tau girls for character anC
individuality; for popularity and pro
.minence she stands aloft and alone
In the four years of her college career
Hazel has been outstanding in the
campus activities. She was vice presi.
dent of the Aquatic League in 1926
and in 1927 she was president of the
Inter-House Athletic League. Dur.
ing her junior and senior years she
served as member of the Board of
the Women's Athletic Association, as
chairman of the Basketball Commit
tee for the Penny Carnival an annual
event of All-U Importance and is one
of the founders of Orchesus, honor
airy club for coed Denishawns at Min
nesota.
"Hazel Hitchcock's most outstand-
ing achievement is that of the covet-
ed M of Minnesota. The attainment
of her school letter is made difficult
in that the aspirant must accumulate
the 1000 necessary points by making
at least one team season. The
process is tedious and arduous-so
much so, in fact that it is only the
most versatile athletes who finally win
a letter, and the percentage of M
winners in comparison with the coed
enrolment is small indeed M win

FISHERMEN GET
One MORE CHANCE
FIRST OFFENSE FOR FAILURE
TO SECURE LICENSE WILL NOT
BE PROSECUTED, SAYS J. F.
GOULD.

Minnesota fishermen will not be sub
jected to arrest for failure to obtain
the residence fishing licenses made
necessary by the 1927 legislature
until they have failed to heed the
one warning they will be given, ]. F.
Gould, state fish and game commission
er said Monday in announcing instruc-
tion to wardens.
"We expect to depend upon GOOD
craftsmanship for enforcement of the
law which will bring 100000 in rev.
enue for conservation and fish pro-
pagation purposes" Mr.. Gould said.
This year we will not arrest Ii
censeless fishermen but wardens have
been instructed to explain the new
requirement to them.
''In all cases names will be taken
and we will determine if the fisher
man then fulfills the requirement. If,
after warning there is no result
there will be arrests.
"This code we believe will be fair
although I think that there are very
few people in the state who do not
know about the residence licenses
law-judging from inquiries here at
the commissioners office"
He said that the nominal cost of
the licenses fifty cents for individ-
uals and 81 for heads Of families
good for all members, is such that
no charges that the law is hard
ship have been made. Persons un-
der twenty-one need no licenses if they
are residents of the state.
