first Badger football team back in 1889. Dr. Truman J. Loope lost his eyesight after catching a severe cold at the Wlsconsin-Minnesota foot ball game In Madison in 1928, but he had a grand time as the class of 1891 held its reunion Saturday. Has Grand Time Iola neighbors had arranged the trip for him.

C. H. Johnson took the day off from his rural mall route to bring Dr. Loope to Madison. He had a glorious time as he talked with former classmates about the football and baseball teams of that early day.

of school jokes and professors, and of mutual friends of college days five decades ago. Following his graduation here, he had gone to Rush medical school in Chicago for his professional studies. After practicing in Bessemer, and Manawa, he went to Iola in 1896. That has been his home ever since. He served on the school board there for 35 years, was village president and chief of the volunteer fire department, and now he lives alone with his radio, a reading machine sent, him by the government, and his memories.

Iola residents know all his reminiscences. and he found old friends who knew them too at Saturday's reunion. I remember how football started at the university, he said Saturday. Charley Meyers went east, heard about it. and come back wanting to have a team.

I remember Meyers and Bill Blackburne and I talked about it all through one chemistry laboratory-session. Bought Equipment We had a hard time getting players. No one paid much attention to us. and some thought we were crazy. But RIPON, Wis.

Warner spoke at a public assembly on the Ripon college campus before efforts to promote the best interests of your alma mater. In recognition of your many years Alumni of the University of Wisconsin who can look back 50 years and beyond to the time when they were college graduates with the ink still wet on their diplomas, got together Saturday noon at a reunion luncheon at the University club for the organizational meeting of the Half Century club. One hundred and thirty strong, the veteran alumni were guests of Pres.

Clarence A. Dykstra. who 50 years ago was a 4th grade pupil In the little Red Oak grammar school In Iowa. Representatives of the classes of 1879, of 80, 83 and up through to 91 attended the luncheon, forming one of the largest gathering of old time collegians ever to meet on the Wisconsin campus. Pages of university history were turned back as classmates of a half hundred years ago and more renewed acquaintances made first in the last decade of the 19th century.

Tears came to the eyes of many as the old timers recalled to mind happy days on the Wisconsin campus and of other dear ones whom they will never meet and greet again at a class reunion. See Few Old Scene To those who had not been back on the campus in 50 years, there was little to remind them of the university scene of the days of Pres. Bascom and Chamberlain, when collegiate life was very different than it is in 1941 and when co-eds were enrolled In the women's college. But memories were fresh and served to recreate for the old grads glowing pictures of sights, landmarks and faces of an early era of the universitys life. Among the 130 charter members of the Half Century club were distinguished jurists, an ex-governor of the state, a former congressman, attorneys, military figures, industrial leaders, educators, bankers, social service workers and society leaders, but titles and rank were of no consequence as they met and greeted each other simply as Tom, George, Jim, Mary, Ned and Sally as they did when they were on the hill.

Judge Jefferson B. Simpson, Shulls-burg, and Susan A. Sterling, of Dexter, his sister, both graduates of the class of 1879, were the oldest alumni at the Half Century club meeting. They were classmates of Sen. Robert M.

La Follette Sr. Charles B. Sterling, of Wheaton, a graduate of the class of '80, returned for the reunion gathering, as did Lillian J.

U.

Students Receive $100 Awards Here for the third annual Boys State sponsored by the Wisconsin department of the American Legion. The national commander warned the boys that although election campaigning should be vigorous, a spirit of unity and friendliness should dominate the activities of the camp throughout the week. Wood for walking sticks and umbrellas is grown like oats or corn. Forests of small sapling trees are planted and grow to the required size in about four years. Three University of Wisconsin students were given checks of 8100 each at the annual Senlor-Alumnl Reunion meeting in the Memorial Union theater Saturday night.

Two of the awards were made by the Wisconsin Alumni association and the third by Walter Alexander, prominent univer Alumni of the university class of '06 who met at a 35th anniversary luncheon this noon at the Memorial Union, heard of the wanton slaughter of the Chinese by the Japs from one of their most distinguished classmates, John Earl Baker, noted veteran of China relief, now stationed at Kumming, China, on the famed Burma road. Kumming is not far from Chungking, target of Japanese bombs during the past many months of the Chino-Japanese war. Kumming is in the heart of the air-raid area.

A letter from Mr.

Baker to his aunt. Mrs. Charles Jarvis, 437 N. Frances was read at the '06 alumni gathering. The letter was mailed on May 28, and arrived in the United States by China clipper.

The letter, read to the alumni follows: During the past week we have had six alarms out of seven days, but no raids. During the previous week we had two raids out of four alarms.

Rainy Season Starts You see, we have no caves here, as they do in Chungking, and so, scattering into the country is our only protection. It has been raining for three days, and we probably shall not be bothered much for the next three months, which is our rainy season.

What is my job? I'm trying to make out myself. It seems to partake of that of a police chief, a business manager, and a priority controller. So many different government bureaus have been making regulations governing the use of the Burma road and the kinds of materials which can be brought in over it; so many companies use the road without providing for their trucks or their drivers any of the facilities that motor cars require enroute, that the air is filled with complaints and suggestions, and there was a suspicion that the road was not being used to capacity. The suspicion was justified, and it is my job to get the road used more and to be a clearing house for the complaints, so it seems. Because part of the road runs through the Siam state of Burma, to the railroad at Lashio.

there is an international angle to this also. I have been down to Rangoon, through Mandalay (where no flying fishes play), and to Maynmo. I had some delicious strawberries at Maynmo almost the only ones of the. season. There are plenty of foreigners here and the Chinese I meet are mostly returned students.

Pres. Dykstra reported that everywhere he went he found graduates of Wisconsin occupying places of prominence in furthering the welfare of our nation.

"In keeping with men and women like yourselves, the university will continue to.

be a great flaming torch of education, democracy and freedom in the United States. Judge Hallem called upon the Half Century club to look In the future toward a greater Wisconsin, while Dean Russell stressed the attitude of youthfulness necessary for an active, aggressive alumni group. Leverett C. Wheeler. Milwaukee, spoke on behalf of the class of 91, telling his classmates that they should commence anew, as they did 50 years back, to work for Wisconsin.
