Every university is concerned with the development of the mind. Baker concerns itself with body and spirit, also. As a matter of fact, the earliest motto of this school was made up of three Greek words that translate into "body, mind, and spirit." Intercollegiate athletics provides the University and our students with an arena for learning and displaying strengths in all these dimensions. Just as the early Greeks educated and trained their youth in all of these functions, so do we, today, do so, in the finest of the traditions of the Graeco-Judeo- Christian experience. Ralph M.

THE EARLY DAYS OF BAKER FOOTBALL 1931 "The Big Game — 50 Years Ago" Reprint from Nov. 9, 1931 Baker Orange "Wildcats Rally to Gain Tie Score with Cardinal Eleven." "The thirteen year jinx held by the Baker University Wildcats held good for at least another year when the two teams battled to a 7 to 7 tie on Muehlebach field Saturday afternoon. The Jewell Cardinals might claim a moral victory out of the game, for in the long number of years the games have been played in Kansas City, Saturday's tie game was the nearest the Cardinals have ever come to winning. With the Red Clad team holding a 7 to 0 lead at the start of the final quarter, the Baptists sensed a victory that would break the many lean years and begin a string of victories. But the famous passing combination, Stock to Cookson, ruled otherwise. Only half of the fourth quarter remained when "Hoddy" Stock tossed a short pass to Cookson and before (the) startled Cardinals could recover their wits, the speedy Cookson was over the goal line. The playing of the two rival safety men, Frank Cookson, and Polly Grant, added color to the rather colorless game. They excelled in running back punts. The personal dual between the Jewell All-State star and Cookson who is certain to land an all-conference berth, was a great exhibition of technique in broken field running. Grant gave Baker fans several anxious moments late in the game by daring returns of punts. But the Jewell star was unable to break loose for the winning score. The game ended with the ball in possession of the Wildcats on the Jewell 37 yard line." CLEMENS & GREEN, INC.
