Playing Schedule.
Marquette University athletic directors have prepared a heavy schedule for the 1920 football season, and recognize that most careful preparation will be necessary to maintain the high standard that the school team has set in past years.
When the students gather in mid- September for registration, the football candidates, according to present plans, will already be following punts, trying end runs, line plunges and forward passes in the lakeside train- v ing camp at Lake Beulah.
Strong Coaching Staff.
Coach John Ryan will be in charge. He will have the assistance during the coming season of F. J. Murray, ?who becomes a member of the faculty of the School of Economics.

NAME OF A REVERED PIONEER MISSIONARY IS PERPETUATED IN A GREAT UNIVERSITY
Nearly 250 years ago, Father Jacques Marquette camped for three days, from Nov. 23 to 27, 1674, at the mouth of the Milwaukee liver. The journey from Green Bay to the land of the Kaskaskia was fraught with many perils, and Father Marquette, accompanied by Indian guides and voyageurs, was the first white mail to visit these regions. It is onl>r fitting that Marquette University, the leading educational institution in Milwaukee, should be called after the great Jesuit mis- > sionary and explorer. TVVA first-
on the present site of the city of Milwaukee, more than two centuries ago.
Early Gift Came From Belgium.
The project of a college in Milwaukee under the supervision of the Jesuit fathers was first conceived by Bishop Henni. Through his untiring efforts, financial aid was secured in Europe from Count Joseph De Boey of Antwerp, Belgium, whose gift of 75,000 francs was the material starting point of the great University whose prestige and influence is increasing year by year.
On Dec. 8, 1849, St. Gall's church was dedicated, and in 1864 a new building was erected, known as St.
Gall's Academy. During this year the school was incorporated as a college. On Aug. 15, 1880, the cornerstone of the new Marquette College was laid by Rt. Rev. Michael Heiss, coadjutor bishop of Milwaukee. This was the foundation of the building at Tenth and State sts., which now houses Marquette Academy. On Sept. 5, 1881, the school was opened, students numbering 250 in the college and high school departments.
In 1906 the history of the institution changed from that of Marquette College to Marquette University. At
IMPROVEMENTS IN EQUIPMENT; ABLE FACULTY
New Buildings Acquired Others to Be Built as Conditions Permit.
Officials of Marquette University,
not content to rest on the record of
unprecedented growth and achieve-
ment of the past year, are planning
for another and bigger school year,
v/hich will open in September.
Improvement in courses of study,
in equipment and in the staff of
Instruction will be effected and the
university be placed in a state of
utmost preparedness to adequately
care for the needs of the thousands
of students who will seek their edu-
cation at the Hilltop.
New Buildings Planned.
The University authorities are im-
patient particularly to get under
way the large new building at
Twelfth st. and Grand av., designed
to relieve crowded conditions in the
Engineering and other departments.
Plans for this building have long
been practically completed, but the
beginning of construction has been
unavoidably delayed by conditions
consequent upon the war.
In the acquisition of the Winkler
and Hitz properties at Eleventh and
Sycamore sts., the University has
found means to relieve crowded con-
ditions in the College of Law, and
to make provision for the housing
t of the Marquette Union. So much
' of the large residence of Gen. F. C.
Winkler as is needed for the pur-
pose will be devoted to the steadily
growing enrollment of the College
of Law. This will relieve to a con-
siderable extent crowded conditions
in the Arts and Science building, by
enabling the removal of law classes
to the Winkler building and the pres-
ent Law School building.
Students Work on Their Union.
In line with the offer of President
Noonan, at the great Marquette
Union massmeeting, the students will
center their many activities in the
beautiful Hitz residence. A com-
mittee of students, all members of
which are remaining in Milwaukee
during the vacation, is at work on
Union plans, so as to have this pure-
ly student institution ready to open
with a flying start in September.
Here it is planned to centralize such
activities as the Glee club, dramatic
activities of the students, student
relations to athletics, student literary
