Again one of the vagaries of fate that must, it seems, occur every so often in every community, has laid low two who were intimately connected with the University. The death of Walter and Ben Sippy was particularly tragic and astonishing, and it is still difficult to believe that those who on Friday night were so hale and so happy on the next morning were rendered back to the unimpressionable dust which is the ultimate end of the bodies of all. The relatives and the close friends of the unfortunate young men should be consoled in their sorrow by memories of the past and by the fact that when living the Sippy boys were always honest, conscientious and esteemed and loved by those who knew them. The only earthly traces of departed humans are the tender memories left in the minds of men and the meaningless shafts that mark their final place of repose. And it is safe to say that Walter and Ben Sippy in life conducted themselves in such a way that in death the memory of them will be a tender source of inspiration and of sweet fancy to their friends. The athletic board election is to be held tomorrow and still there are no candidates in the field.
