YOU look :out over this
and colorful
gathering you cannot help but
marvel at the development of
football attendance during the
last few years.
Transportation has undoubt-
edly played an important role
in this marvelous development
and among the various forms
of transportation, the motor
bus has contributed a conven-
ient service for the football fan.
The Northland Transportation
Company, covering over 3,000
miles of Minnesota Highways,
has had the pleasure of carry-
ing thousands of football en-
thusiasts from all points in the
state to these football spec-
tacles. Each year more people
are finding the bus the conve~­
ient form of transportation to
reach football games. They
find the bus more economical
and avoid the worries and re-
sponsibilities of parking their
cars while visiting in the Twin
Cities . .

two weeks hence against Ossie

Des Moines. Both are great
players, although Crofoot has
never received the wide ac-
claim that has fallen to the lot
of Captain Herb.
I t is interesting to notice,
in this respect, that in his
three years' football career,
Joesting has appeared in rela-
tively few "Big" games at
home. In 1925 he played at
home against Iowa, Notre
Dame and Wisconsin; in 1926
against Notre Dame and
Michigan, and in 1927 against
Iowa and Wisconsin. Home-
staying fans have seen the big
forester in only four Western
Conference games prior to to-
day's contest. And even when
today is over, he will have
been seen only in two games
against Wisconsin, two against
Iowa, and one against Michi-
gan, to which record must be
added, of coiIrse, the two hard-
fought battles against the
stellar non-conference team
from Notre Dame.

Today is "Dad's Day"
U NTIL he himself becomes a "dad",
no son knows how much he means
to his father. If sons could know
this while they are still at an age where
they could do a good deal about it. most
of a man's troubles, if any, with his sons
would be ended.
Knowing the depth of parental con-
cern in a young person's welfare, the
University of Minnesota decided four
years ago that it would be well to invite
both the mothers of students and the
fathers to the campus for a day each
year, so that they might see just what
sort of life students live at Minnesota.
what kind of rooms they occupy, what
their instructors are like. what services
and conveniences and help are provided
to make their university days profitable
and secure.
Mother's Day comes in the spring.
Dad's Day was placed in the fall, partly
on the theory that every "Dad" would
be delighted with the chance to combine
a visit to his son or daughter with attend-
ance at one of the big, home games.
The University of Minnesota has
nothing to conceal and much to be proud
of in the way it takes care of the young
people who are sent to its campus for the
four year period of undergraduate study.
I n plans now on the horizon is a system
of dormitories which will improve the
housing conditions, especially for fresh-
man men. Year by year Minnesota is
improving its guidance system, both for
giving students vocational guidance that
will help them select the studies from
which they can profit most and for aiding
them in the solution of any personal
problems that may arise. Each year it
improves its student health service.
Year by year it is obtaining more ade-
quate buildings, so that students may
work under the best possible conditions.

a new swimming pool will be added
eventually to the provisions for bodily

The Field House is umque among

part by an issue of bonds which carry
no mortgage against either the ground
on which the building stands or the
building itself. merely against the future
income of Minnesota sports. I t is not
costing the tax payers a cent. As foot-
