Some families could stage a Michigan State College alumni meeting with just the members of their own family. It seems that way when Mrs. Fred Morse and her kinfolks get together, or the Herb Gettels, or the family of Santiago Iledan from the Philippines.

T THE TURN of the century a young Always a strong booster of Michigan A girl, Paulina Raven (now Mrs. Fred State, Mrs. Morse has been responsible Morse), chanced to hear a talk on home for encouraging a number of her family economics at Michigan State which filled and relatives to attend.

This pretty little Philippine miss is the second generation and the third member of her family to attend Michigan State. Her father, Santiago Iledan, at­ tended M.S.C. from 1916 to 1920. After graduating, he returned to the Philip­ pines to teach agriculture, and he is now the principal of the Institute of Madyaas, at Numia, Capiz, Philippine Islands. Elizabeth, Priscilla's sister, graduated with a master's degree in education in 1950, and is now married and living in Chicago. Priscilla plans to return to the Philip­ pines this fall and work in the republic's Department of Agriculture.
