Perfect Order Prevails-
Prospects Best In
Years
At the ringing of the seven
o'clock bell Thursday morniug,
September 11. opened the col
legiate year of 1913-14, which
bids fair to be the most prosper
ous session that the University
has ever seen.
Never before has
the number of registrations bcn
so great nor the conduct of the
students so orderly. Excellent
hopes will have been realized. .
The increase of ten per cent
over last, year's fall registration
hears witness to the success of
last "year's endeavors to attract
new students' to the hill. Both
on the athletic field and in the
class room we have new material
o f excellent quality, m e n
who come to us highly
recommended from other instil u-
tion as well as men who are at
College for the first time. The
increased attendance is due to
Uie concerted action of 'j acuity
and Alumni, the untiring efforts
ol Coach Trenchard, and the
success of the High School de
bating and athletic contests held
here last spring. jNor is to be
doubted that the excellent repre
rentauves which we had last
year in the Glee Club and Dra
matic Club did much to gain

"Bloody Nat" and "Captain
Pat" sailed from England7 on
September 4, and are expected on
the Hill this week to receive: the
big glad-shake: They left - here
early in June landing in Scot
land. V Coach stayed in training
at Parto Bello, near Edinburgh
for about twe months.
Pat went to Stanley Park,
Liverpool. From that point he
traveled around England and
took a trip to Berlin, studying
methods of training with the
view of b' coming himself
Track Trainer. The English
fogs seem to have agreed with
the Captain, for he got his own
running down to 1:586 on the
half-mile and 51 on the quarter,
' After Coach Xartiriell had
trained at Porto Bello he looked
around for a bloody trophy. The
iiiciest man he could find was
Jack Darson, of Australia, who
had broken the 300 yds. at 220
yds. (professional) records this
summer, 1 Nat made out a chal
lenge for three races 120 yds.,
220 yds ; and 440 yds the win

Champion Sprinter. ' Jack re'
fused to accept this challenge.
Then Coach offered to run Jack a
440 on a lined track orr- the con
