PERSONALITIES
BY Nellie DodsOn

Harpole and / went out to watch
the grid team play a practice game,
and great time we had, too. Harp
explained the technical points of
the game while / listened and tried
to put 'em together so that they'd
make sense.
The play was so ragged during
the first quarter that Bierman
finally boiled over and made every
body take jog around the field to
clear the cobwebs out of their
noodles. The varsity lads left over
from last seasons great team were
up to par, but the frosh and re-
serves showed the effects of the
weekend vacation. The Gold
squad hoped and skipped and
fumbled and fooled around so much
that Bernie had to bark out two
different times: "GoId squad, take
a jog around the field"
Dwight Reed didn't get in at end
for the Maroon squad at the start
of the game, but before the quarter
was over, he was in the midst of
the fight, playing a darn nice de-
fensive game. He knows his as
signment and carries it out at the
right time, and that is an important
point in anybody's football fracas.
Bierman's scheme of football calls
for speed and pul-enty of it. Reed
is fast and handles himself easily,
another thing in his favor. He has
a natural love of the game to go
along with what looks like a rea-
sonable amount of natural ability,
and last, but not least, have heard
that he's NOT a CREAM-PUFF,
that he can "take it" when the 60
ing gets rough.
The biggest kick I got out of the
whole game was hearing Bernie
snap, after player had done some
thing screwy: "Take him out!"
That's the way it is over there;
mistakes are rewarded with ses-
sion on the bench, and no one man
is favored over the next fellow.
Whoever wins out and makes the
varsity is "tops," and you can bet
your new Easter bonnet on that.
This and That: University of
Michigan will send just ONE man
to the Penn relays, and that one
man will be Willis Ward. The
other members of the track team
have agreed to let Ward represent
the whole team, which means he is
representing the whole dawggoned
university at an event of major in
terest in collegiate sports circles.
Not bad, not bad! The cops
walked into the library down at
the University of Iowa and grabbed
certain cullud collegian for carry
ing a p-p-istol. Seems as if the
cullud collegian was packing the
gun so that he could blaze away at
another cullud collegian who had
been getting too friendly with his
gel friend. And that is what hap
pens when there are about six men
to one woman, as is the case down
at University of Ioway. The
Modernette tea Easter Sunday
went over with a hot-cha, rah-rah
because everybody was glad to
have some place to go to show off
their new duds. And for once
Everybody" includes just about
everybody, for the Who's-Who
turned out in grand array, so they
tell me. And don't forget to
drop by st. Peters this Sunday
night april 2s), for the service,
which will be directed entirely by
the college folks of the Cities. If
some Of you want to go out roam
ing around afterwards, that's your
bizness, but pul-ease come out to
the program first. The Alpha
brothers should be out to hear
Walker, the Kappa brothers should
be out to hear Harpole, the rest of
the brothers should be out to see
the gals, and the gals should be out
