Montana Alnmnns News From Hawaii From Annabelle (Bill Cogswell, ’23)

A remark or two on Hawaii may seem a bit out of place in The Alumnus, but no more so than the writer felt when he came to this turquoise tinted corner of the torrid zone straight from the domain of Ownie Kelly. The genial editor with her customary desire to have some­ one else do the work asked me to send her something concerning Hawaii for the publication. My first idea was to send her a cocoanut but I found out it cost something like 35 cents for postage so 1 indefinitely postponed it. She asked for poetry. She is not going to get it. There are too many would-be poets doing business down here, and not one of them would last five minutes on the Frontier staff. However, if the editor will accept an offering compiled by Nat McKown and myself she is welcome to it. If she wants poetry she would probably be able to get some from Helen Little, *21, who is teaching Americanism to the kids of eight or nine races on the island of Maui. Helen landed on Maui this fall and when she got there she found a whole lot of Japanese and Nat McKown. Jack Hill, ’19, who is principal of the Lihue high school on the island of Kauai, might respond with a little verse. Jack is a married man now. Bill Aho, ’24, and Click Davey, ex- ’23, ought to feel poetical enough to contribute a little verse for the cause. Bill is canning pineapples or something with the big cannery here while Click is regulating the liners between ’Frisco and Honolulu. George Armitage, ’14, and his wife (Louise Webber, ex-’17) form the nucleus of this Montana settlement. Both of them have been there long enough to know better than to talk back to a traffic cop, a thing which Aho and I didn’t, and we landed in the palatial headquarters to have some of the Grizzly fight taken out of us. We got out of it in good shape, but for a while we were figuring on wiring ASUM President Gid Boldt for help. (I helped Gid once that way. Send self-addressed stamped envelope for details.) There is nothing more to say. We are more interested in pay-checks now than grade-points. We wish the University of Montana was in Honolulu at present so we could give the bunch our best wishes for the holidays at first hand. The “ poetry” follows:

Yuletide and High Tide

’Twas the night before Christmas on Waikiki beach. The price of nice presents was ’way out of reach. The alumni were nestled all snug in the sand, And dreaming of blizzards in Bitter Root land. Said one, “ Gang, at that, I ’d like to be there, Inhaling that forty below zero air. I don’t think I ’m homesick, but really, you know, I ’d sure like to feel a good handful of snow.” Said another, “ Yes, brother, but you must agree, That this is enjoyable, parked by the sea, A nice foamy wave sprinkling spray on your feet, While Montana students are bucking the sleet. Just think of that drift near the nor.th campus gate, With shivering students and street car that’s late. B-r-r-r! Are you craving a Hell Gater breeze, When here you can pour nice white sand on your knees?” “ Aw, come off,” growled another, “ don’t think of the cold, Recall that old fireplace where stories are told; Where the fellows swap lies, and the flames jump the flue, While they sit out the old year, and sit in the new, Where the smear of late turkey is stuck on the vest, And a nice Christmas necktie flares out from each chest. 1 sure like the life in these volcanic isles, But at that, I would like to toast shins on the tiles.” “ Yes,” dreamed another, and swallowed a sigh, And then brushed a cocoanut out of his eye. “ Maw makes plum puddin’ the best ever had, With BRANDY for trimmin’s (she leaves THAT to Dad). And then the kid brother plays ’round with new toys, Shooting a pop-gun—a helluva noise. I like these green palm trees and oceanic breeze, But I can’t feature Santa in just B. Y. D.’s.” And then they all talked ’bout a Montana year, With memories of Prexy, of Jesse and Speer. Of Weisberg, of Burley, of Janitor Sparks, And other professors who murder high marks. Of DeLoss’ Glee Club, of Atkinson’s band, Yes, also “ Prof. Phillips” was heard on the sand; And Elrod and Stone, Scheuch, Coon, and Rowe, Then, “ Up with Montana, boys, down with the foe!” Now th at’s all there is to this Montana verse, I wrote the best parts, McKown the worse. But here’s the idea, no dif where you roam— Well, some wise guy wrote it—“ There’s no place like home!”

Varsity Grads Make Good as Team Coaches

Montana graduates are fast becoming the important athletic mentors of the state. Though Montana coaches have been in the field only a short time they have already won four state champion­ ships. Two of them have been in football and one each in track and basketball.

Harry (Swede) Dahlberg, *21, has been one of the most successful of the graduate coaches. In the past year he has coached Butte high school to three state championships, basketball last March in Bozeman, track meet in May at Missoula, and this fall defeated Miles City for the football championship of the state.

Steve Sullivan, ex-*21, as coach of Butte Central, has always had teams that were among the best. His team won sixth place in the last basketball tournament and eighth place in the track meet. He also won the two relay races in his two years of coach­ ing. The Butte Central football team recently played Butte to a scoreless tie, but withdrew from the state title race in favor of Butte high.

Lloyd Madsen, ’23, coaching Hamilton high, developed a strong basketball team and an unusually powerful track squad. His team was nosed out of the state track title by four points when Butte won the low hurdles the last day of the meet. Madsen is now Boy Scout executive at Deer Lodge. Ralph Christie, ’24, has taken his place at Hamilton.

Fred (Cubs) Daylis, ’23, won the 1923 football champion­ ship for Billings the first year he coached. Since then he has de­ veloped some strong teams in other branches of sport. Leonard Daems, ex-’ 1 7, coached Harlowton high school through the 1923 football season. His team played Anaconda to determine which would play Billings for the state championship, but was defeated. Ernest (Hop) Prescott, ’18, has coached the last three years at Alberton and is now coaching at Superior. Sam Crawford, ’15, has coached Forsyth for three years.
