Stetson University, DeLand, Florida Volume 34, Number 5 THE STETSON COLLEGIATE, TUESDAY, OCT. 20, 1925 Single Copy, 5 Cents y STETSON GRIDSTERS TRIM NORMAN PARK Mcquillan's warriors set down georgians with 16 to 0 score By HARRIS SIMS, Stetson Publicist *r Stetson's Green and White Hatter " aggregation held another plucky eleven's nose to the grindstone on Cummings Field Saturday when they handed out a defeat of 16 to 0 to the Norman Institute gridsters of Norman Park, Ga. As is indicated by the score, the affair was not a drubbing for the Norman outfit in any sense of the word, but the absence of a heedless onslaught was due entirely to the fact that the Hatter opposition was a constantly changing combination of men who could not seem to get together in the desired manner during any part of the game. It was laboratory day for Coach McQuillan, for he chose to take advantage of the opportunity offered by the comparatively harmless opposition by experimenting with practically every member of ^the Green and White squad. The substitutions were frequent and mai-v, and served to give the Stetson CLacn a valuable insight into the wo. king ability of each man and a m0re accurate estimate of his tactics under fire. The Norman eleven made a close approach to the Stetson goal at one time during the game, but were soon repulsed by i*ew strength. The frequent substitutions among the Hatters served to hold the opposing forces at *► fair equilibrium, an dwith the consequent result that an air of uncrtainty reigned throughout the clash. This, of course, would not have beei; the case had the Norman outfit Lqen forced to suffer the imposition ~t.-4*La^z_Iza-1:uiixx -4 having to deal with only the Varsity men. It was not a star game for the Hatters, but during the comparatively short time each man served in the fight he contributed mediocre but persistent playing. It is fitting to mention in passing the work of Felton Mikell, Stetson's midget quarterback of the outstanding sort, yet he performed to a commendable degree and won plenty of favorable recognition. Neither team scored in the .first quarter. In the second quarter Stetson scored ten points. Larry Bernard got away with a field goal kicked from the thirty-five yard iine. The touchdown came when Baldi executed a perfect pass to Chet Freeman just over the goal line. In the third quarter Lewis went over for the second touchdown for Stetson. Burson, playing full for Norman, was easily the outsanding man among the Georgia visitors. He was the hardest fighter on the Norman machine and never gave up. It is of interest to observe .that Burson was a member of ^..•itch McQuillan's championship team three years ago when Lakeland High School carried off the annual honors.

HOMECOMING OF STETSON ALUMNI ON NOVEMBER 7TH November 7 will be observed as Homecoming day for Stetson alumni, according to an announcement made by President Lincoln Hulley. This announcement followed a request made by Sledge Tatum, manager of the Warrior football squad, and Professor Harry Garwood, president of. the Stetson Alumni Association. Stetson homecoming is an annual affair, observed to coincide as nearly as possible with a spirited football game. The day this year will bring many of the old timers back to their alma mater to observe the Stetson-Carson Newman game. This is considered by Coach McQuillan as the most difficult game of the season, and the day has been declared Homecoming to make it the most suc cessful day of the entire season. Fraternities will be requested to address their alumni in an attempt to bring them back to De- Land. Class reunions will be urged by the football managers, and every possible method to stir up enthusiasm for this day, which will mean much for DeLand and Stetson University, will be used. Announcement of this date will be given a great deal of publicity through the state by the official Stetson publicist, Harris Sims, and it is hoped that in this way many of the alumni will be brought back to DeLand. It is hoped that other forms of entertainment may be furnished the old-timers while they are here, and as soon as these plans have been perfected they will be announced.
