Can you tell us the year this picture of parading seniors was taken? In the background are Howard Terrace, torn down in 1923 to make way for the Home Economics Building, and a Faculty Row residence which now houses the Nursery School. Days of Yore Dr. W. J. Beal in the Botanic Garden in 1920.

Spring's revival of the almost countless plants in the Beal Botanic Garden makes timely a tribute to the memory of the Garden's creator, Dr. William James Beal (1833-1924). During his official connection with the college, 1870-1910, Dr. Beal exerted a tremendous influence on the landscaping of the campus. His high stand­ ards of teaching and living made a profound impres­ sion on the scores of alumni who sat in his classes and whom he contacted elsewhere. An indefatigable worker throughout most of his 90 years, Dr. Beal wrote not far from 1,300 articles, bulletins, notices, and scientific papers. Included in this total were 135 papers which appeared in leading botanical and scientific journals. In addition, he wrote five books, including his well known "History of Michigan Agricultural College." Besides the Botanic Garden, another living mem­ orial to Dr. Beal is the Pinetum, established by him in 1896.

(Right) Members of the Class of 1904 will recall the glowing records established by athletic teams of that year. In all sports — football, baseball, basket­ ball and track — State's teams triumphed. Pictured here are members of the baseball team. This photo­ graph was loaned to us by George S. McMullen, '04, of East Lansing.

Only a horse-and-buggy or a "horse­ less carriage" is needed to complete this campus scene, typical of the period, 1900 to 1918. On the left is the Old Chemistry Building (now Physics); center background is Wil­ liams Hall which stood on the site of the present Library, and, barely dis­ cernible in the left background, are the steps of Old College Hall. The Chemistry Building was erected in 1871 and is the only one of the trio still standing. Williams Hall, a dor­ mitory, was constructed in 1869 and was destroyed by fire in 1919. Old College Hall, built in 1856, collapsed in 1918. Its site is marked by Beau­ mont Tower. same in college as he is now — very more so than ever before, that I belong active and industrious.'
