Two practice sessions daily until classes start on September 23, have been decreed for the Purple. After that one two-hour session, to conform to the recent conference agreement, will be the program. Fourteen returning lettermen, who are eligible for intercollegiate competi- tion, were among the candidates, as were a couple who have not yet leaped the scholastic barrier. Ninety rookies also were issued suits. The Wildcat mascot was missing, though. The mascot presented to the Purple last year by Dr. R. N. Dunning- ton of Benton Harbor, an alumnus, died during the summer. Dr. Dun- nington went out to capture another one alive, but at press time, hadn't quite got the range.
