The following letter from Prof. How
ard, now at the head of the Latin de
parrnqnt of the University of South Da
kota, Vll be doubtless Interesting to
many University people:
Vermllllon,xSo. Dak., Oct. 19, 1903.
Dear Professor barber:
Since I arrived here, October G, my
time has been quite taken up by the
duties of my new position.. The day
following my coming I took charge of
all my classes and the regular pro
gram has been carried ou since that
time. I found the work, ill good shape
and am entirely pleased with the situa
tion. Dean Young met me at the train
and went with tile to the best hotel,
which, by ther way, is of a kind to do
credit to a much larger city than this
is. Next day I secured a room and
board, at nice places near the campus.
Sofrar I have not secured a house that
suits, but think I shall tomorrow have
my choice of two, either of which will
be satisfactory. Vermillion is a pretty
place. The large, fine lawns and abun
dance of shade remind me of Lincoln In
Its better parts.
Lately they are laying broad cement
sidewalks everywhere and I think we
have come at a favorable time. The
campus (25 acres) Is unusually fine;
the buildings look well and are suited
to the uses they serve. The science
building ($40,000). completed in May,
1902, was planned inside by the science
teachers and is all right. Next year
a gymnasium ($30,000) is to be built.
The money is available Lien. A Car
negie library is being erected for the
city ($10,000). The stores are far su
perior to what I expected to find. The
view from the bluffs just at the south
ern and western edges of the city, out
over the Vermillion and Missouri rivers
and the spacp of four miles between
them to the bluffs beyond the Missouri
in Nebraska, Is out of the ordinary. I
would not tire of it if I went dally and
gazed awhile. My reception has been
most cordial. I like the faculty and stu
dents. They are doing earnest work
here. One can Itnow all of the univer
sity body and the relation of teacher
and student is close. Later I shall write
you my impressions more fully. I gave
the paper you sent to Dean Young. I
hope all Is well with you and the Latin
department. Remehiber me, please, to
Mrs. Barber. Most sincerely,
J. H. HOWARD.

George P. Shldler, '03, now studying
medicine at Ann Arbor, In the follow
ing letter gives an Interesting account
of the methods of play that have made
the Michigan team so strong:
"Editor Nebraskan: If you care to,
you might say that I have seen the
famous Michigan) team practice and
play their initial game. Their speed
and quickness seems to be their salient
feature. Every man is in every play
and they keep busy all the time. The
quarter gives tho signals like light
ning, so that an outsider can naruiy
catch tho numbers. Coach Yost fol
lows tho men around at practice and
yells: "Hurry up," and "Every man
in.' At night he instructs the team in
blackboard signal practice and uses
checkers on a table for plays. He will
call out 6-2-1- and tho man who is to
carry the ball must wove his checkers
as ho would move himself. On the
Held every man knows what he Is ex
pected to do in tho big piece of eleven
man, machinery. Tho most noticeable
feature of tho team is tho way tho quar
ter gives tho signals snappy hardly
tolls it, quick is not fast enough. Thoy
aro thjreo number signals and the next
play is given just before tho ball is
tossed back by tho center.
In Saturday's game I was utterly un
able to join in tho Michigan yell and I
would have given ?50O to hear tho old
U-U-Unl from a thousand voices. Con
' gratulatlons on the Dakota game.
Yours Truly,
George Shldler.'
