Northwestern Rises to Dignified Places in Big Ten Circuit
Chicago, Jan. 18. Northwestern University rose to a dignified place in the Big Ten after a decade of poor showings. Rumors of leaving the conference or Notre Dame joining stirred concern, but a revived athletics program, especially football, sparked a transformation and earned respect from fellow Big Ten members. The nickname change from Methodists to Wildcats accompanied this revival, aided by a donor presenting a live mascot. The 1925 football season marked a pronounced rebound for the Wildcats.
