Phat game was never finished. It s interrupted by what is now led the Parade Grounds riot. is occurrence marks the only ke in the school's peace-time tory that students were offici V upheld in an act of violence iinst outsiders, and even con nded by the school pr-esident for ir actions. n the affair, one student was iously injured, a faculty mem - less seriously, but painfully ured. and a Columbia police n aiso badly huri. That no one % killed was probably due to ck-witted action by several pro sors who were present at the ne. vents leading to the riot be 1 when Cul.

The inspection was not d On the 26th, however, due to kness in the family of John ry Watts, Adjutant and In actor-General of the Governor's ards and the state militia. iones failed to notify authorities the postponement of the inspec n to the 28th, so permission was 'en for the ball game on that .ernoon by Prof. Benjamin F. ian, acting president in Wood v's temporary absence. ['he game was in progress when officers and troops arrived. ~tts, Jones, and staff members le their horses directly across diamond, interrupted the me. Sloan immediately sent the m manager to General Watts ask that he use the west half the field (around six acres) for inspection and review, and not disturb the game. Watts refused to listen, saying, rhat have you to do with it." sloan then approached Watts nself and repeated the request. 'This is state property," Watts >lied, "I have a right to use It." 'Yes, state property for use of college, but as acting presi it, I am willing to let you use west side if you do not inter e with the ball game," Sloan iwered. "There is room enough both." tVatts agreed, saying he had no sh to interfere with the game.

After the firs passing, the troops were pu through extensive field movement which brought them close to th diamond several times, interrupt ing the game. Watts and his staff had in th meantime kept falling back unti they were within a few feet o third base. A foul ball hit th horse of a Major Evans, one o the staff. Apparently agitated by the fou ball hitting the horse, Watts thei backed his horse into the studen ranks, but they refused to mov< back any farther. Several time: Watts shouted at the students ordering them to get back. One ol them retorted: "We've given you everything except the diamond and we won't give that. un!" Watts ordered Policeman Dowi< (two Columbia policemen were or hand for the inspection) to movc the students back. Dowie looke< at the determined students, thei game completely broken up by this time, and blew his whistle to sum mon Policeman McQuatters to hi aid. il the meantime Sloan haO again gone to Watts and askec him to move away from the dia mond.

Jones gave the order and th troops marched across the dia mond, pushing the students befor them. One of the college boys Hass Brooker, managed to brea through the troop's ranks to def the order.

F The sight of Davis and McColl with blood streaming from their %wounds Infuiaed the students. Baseball bats came into play; Dowie was knocked down. Other students had pulled Mc Quatters away and were holding him firmly away from the action. Except for two men, the troops remained in formation, but some of them struck at students going thrmigh their ranks to aid Brook er, the boy first seized by the po licemen. When Dowie was let up, bleed ing from several head wounds, and in a dazed condition, he pulled out his pistol and fired once be fore it could be taken away from him. Luckily, the shot hit no one.

MTER ST, the Fire Station Pharmacy Sh Eli Lilly Phar Company In I By PAUL B. FOSTER "The size of the place,"-said F. H. Smith, pharmacy junior, when asked what most impressed him about the Eli Lilly Pharmaceuti cal company in Indianapolis, Indi ana. "Their plants use enough electricity in one day's time to furnish 60,000 American homes with current for one year," Smith said. Smith was among the 27 phar macy students who attended the Lilly Company pharmaceutical meeting April 11 and 12. Five of the students were accompanied by their wives. The -Lilly Company, which em ploys over 4,000 persons ~in the plants, paid all expenses of the group while in the city. The only cost to the student was train fare to and from Indianapolis. Hershcel Cooper, pharmacy senior, replied that one of the ma chines in the packing and shipping department greatly interested him. "With pills, bottles, cotton, and cardboard boxes fed separately into it, that machine filled the bottles with pills, topped off with cotton packing, capped the bottles, placed them in the boxes along with Instruction sheets, sealed and dated the boxes, all in one opera tion. It was amazing," he said. Universal among those taking the trip were three comments-A wonderful time, new things dis covered, and the size and com pleteness of the Lilly Co. plants. The group, with M. H. Byrd, pharmacy instructor, in charge, left Columbia at 11:20 a. m., on April 9, traveling by train in two private reclining-seat coaches. Ar riving at Indianapolis at 10:10 the next morning-Sunday-they were met at the station by a Lilly Company representative who es corted them to the Hotel Severin, where they were to stay. After room assignments and lunch at the hotel, McKenstray, the Lilly Co. representative, took the group on an afternoon tour of the city. Among other places of interest, they visited the famous Indianapolis Speedway where they say the Austin automobile which recently broke the world's endur ance record for Its class. The Dean S. L.

After dinner that night at the hotel, the group was given tickets to any theater in the city, with the exception of the burlesque the aters. Some of the group went to the Indiana Roof to see Johnny Long and his band, but it was learned that several of the male students couldn't resist the call of the burlesque, so they paid their own way into one of the burlesque shows. Said one of them-a mar ried man who asked to .remain anonymous, "It wasn't worth the money!" Following an 8 a.m., breakfast Monday, the group went by bus to Greenwood Farms, the Lilly Company's biological laboratory, where they witnessed the prepara tion of small-pox serum and dip theria serum. At noon, a chicken dinner of the all-you-can-hold variety was served at a nearby boarding house. 'That afternoon the group was taken on a tour of the Kentucky Street plant, where the Lilly com pany's penicillin and other strepto mycin drugs are made. The group was entertained at a fillet banquet in the Hotel Severin's ballroom Monday. "A few of us finished all the courses," Cooper said. "The rest dropped out along the line." Theater tickets were again distributed for the night's entertainment. Tuesday morning the group was taken to the McCarthy Street plant-the largest of its kind in the world. All of the company's products except the serums and streptomycin drugs are made at this plant. Here is also found the packing and shipping department which ships pharmaceutical sup Plies tu aii parts of the world. The preparation of insulin was shown to the pharmacy students as an example of the Lilly com pany's process of manufacture and preparation of their products. The group left Indianapolis at 5:20 Tuesday afternoon, and ar rived in Columbia Wednesday afternoon. Everyone questioned said the trip wa- v.ell worth the trauli faav, and Louis King, pharmacy senior, remarked. "I would certainly like to go to work for that company when I finish school!"
