By vote Of the returning letter
men for the 1888 squad. Jack Gala
CHER was elected captain TO lead the
Wildcats in the gridiron battles OF
NEXT year. Gallagher is a junior and
played regular quarterback on the
team this year. his first year out
for the squad.
Gallagher besides doing the quart
erbacking is the teams leading punt
er and passer. Pushing Jack for
honors was Torrance Wilson, junior
tackle. the only other candidate to
receive votes from the squad. Gal
lagher, the squads choice. is a nat
ural for the captaincy. Fiery and full
of pep he handled the '37 team with
a will and certainty that won the
confidence of all the team members.
A keen student of the game he made
surprisingly few errors in calling
plays for a quarter of such limited
experience.
Only six lettermen and two adj
ditional squad members remain as
a nucleus for the '38 team. Howev-
er, some promising material was un-
covered in intramural six-men foot
ball that will bolster the squad.

Bernard Shaw was affiliated in his
youth, and of the National Union of
Women's Suffrage Societies.
Snowden was the Moses of the
British labor movement, the firebrand
of its youth, the leavening agent and
lawgiver of it's more mature years.
Reduced to a mere shell of a phys
ical man by an accident suffered when
he was only 27 years old, he battled
his way to one of the highest offices.
Finally forced by his physical all
ments to give up his strenuous post
after the second Macdonald labor
cabinet had been overthrown in Au-
gust, 1881, he put on robes of scarlet
and ermine and took a seat in the
House Of Lords as the first ViScount
of Ickornshaw. This acceptance of a
peerage added strength to the Labor
representation in the Upper House and
kept his talents at the disposal of the
coalition government which had the
big task Of steering the British En-
plre through the crisis that followed
suspension of the gold standard.
Hailed as Treasury Savior.
At times in his spectacular career,
he was reviled as an atheist, a de-
stroyer and pacifist. But in his second
term as chancellor he was hailed as a
savior OF the nations honor and
treasury.
In the trying times of the World
War SnoWden was regarded as a
scourge to British honor. Deeply peci-
fistic, he spoke against not only war
as an institution, but against the 1914
1918 conflict. He declared that battles
settled nothing and least OF all the
problems Of the working classes.
Yet decade later the press of all
tinges of political opinion in England
was hailing him as a bulWark of
British interest when at The Hague
debt conference he fought off overy
attempt to reduce Great Britains
share of the German reparations pay
ments below the % per cent awarded
her at the Spa conference six years
earlier.
Snowden was Wooed and won by
socialism while he was on his first
serious sickbed He was put there by
being knocked off a bicycle, and to pass
the time of his long convalescence
he read everything he could get his
hands on. Some Of that literature
was socialistic and he plunged into
q study Of it that converted him to its
tenents
He rose from his bed with per-
manent injuries to his back that
forced him to hobble with rubber
tipped canes through the rest of his
life. But his dragging feet never
faltered on the path which he picked
out for himself and ultimately they
brought him to the front benches OF
the House of Commons.
SnoWden was born July 18, 1864, in
the West Riding of Yorkshire near the
Lancashire border where Wintry
winds sweep hanging mists across a
bleak countryside. The moorlands ran
into the backyard of the cottage where
he was born to John ard Martha

liked to read George Meredith's novels
