Activities of General Interest Concerning
Faculty Members And Students

Describing his own condition, the
speaker declared, Although my
legs are almost of to the hips and
my left sleeve empty, am physical
ly handicapped. but not crippled. "
Mr.. Schnitzler told the students
that It made no difference whst
kind OF Job they had after gradua-
ton II they were really happy with
1t. He said that he has known
many people in good financial posi-
tons who are not as happy as
many Of the people who live simple
lives.
He believes that there are other
handicaps besides physical ones.
AS an example, he said that a mean,
snarling disposition often handi-
caps its owner.
Absence OF wealth may be a
handicap, but not often" he told
the assembly. Sometimes those
who are handicapped, physically
mentally, or in other ways, and who
make the effort TO overcome it and
carry on are much more happy
and successful than those who
never had a handicap, he asserted.
The speaker gave a short review
OF his life, in which he showed
how he has been able to overcome
the handicap placed upon him. He
was born a very healthy child, but
when in grammar school he was
afflicted with disease which Grip
pied his left leg. The doctor called
to the case gave the wrong dag
nosis, calling his trouble inflamma-
tory rheumatism. Mr.. Schnitzler
paused here TO say that, although
the doctor had been graduated from
the best medical school in the coun-
try, he had used all his spare time
since graduation for recreation in
stead of further study. The speak
er asked his audience to keep on
with their studies after they re-
ceive their degrees. Il the doctor
had been studying, he would have
known how to treat my case, he
said.
After undergoing seven opera
tons during four-years' stay at
hospital, Mr.. Schnitzler returned
to school, several grades behind his
former classmates. This was the
first thing which the speaker said
he found difficult to do. At II,
he looked for a job and finally
found one, working for one dollar
a week. He worked every morning,
every night, and Saturdays. He
also found time to attend school
and received his high school de-
gree. Since he was class orator, a
lawyer heard him speak and offered
to pay his way through the Uni
versity of Michigan. Mr.. Schnitz-
Ter refused because, he said, he
wanted to do things himself with
out the aid of others. He received
his teachers certificate and for
some years taught in a little school
in, northern Michigan.
There came a recurrence OF the
disease and his left arm was ampu..
tated. Here Mr.. Schnitzler told the
students that he at first pitied him
self. He was detected. Friends
came from far and near TO tell him
how sorry they were for him.

 Remarkable Record
 Gehrig began his, remarkable con- secutive game streak with tie Yankees in 1925 when, on June l, he was sent into a game as pinch hitter. The next day Manager Mill CT Huggins used him at first base in place of Wally Pipp and he never left the post until he had played 2,13O successive regularly scheduled American League games. He also played in 34 world series contests and countless exhibitions.
 Lou was a big handsome, dimple- checked fellow who always looked the picture of health. He stood six feet, one inch and weighed POS pounds. Playing every game became fetish with him and becaue of this, or because of his naturally careful habits, he trained more faithfully than almost any other player in the major leagues.
 Like all baseball veterans he had injuries. Once in 1884 he was struck by a pitched ball during an exhibi- ton game at Norfolk, Va, and suf- fered a moderate concussion. Again in 1887 he hurt finger on his right hand. In 1888 he broke a thumb But nothing that ever happened to him over that long stretch of years kept him from getting into the line up at least briefly each game.
 For the public this was the notable feature of Gehrig's career But fol the persons connected with the sport his easy disposition and his great playing contributions to the Tanks stood out far beyond the fact that he chose not to miss game now land then.
 Most Valuable Player
 Twice he was selected as the most valuable player in the American League-in 1927 and in 1886. He led his league in batting only once, hitting 363 in 1884. but he set the pace no less than five times for runs batted in and in 1881 set the present league record of 184 | Among the other playing records aside from endurance. that he held were; most home runs in one game four; most years 100 or more runs batted inI13; most years 300 ol more total bases = l3; most home
