Spirit.—Fresh Won by a Score of 15 to 10. f Ridley being absent on acoouiu of the illness of his mother, Gam- moil was put in the box with great expectations, but they soon col lapsed. After the Fresh, had scored seven runs, Halsey succeeded Gam- mon. His pitching was more effect ive, but he too, was extremely er ratic, clearly showing that curving the ball was not in his line. The Juniors seemed to lose a I in terest in the game during the first inning. Kemp and Davis both caught well. Davis dislocated his forefinger in the ninth inning. L. Halsey’s batting and base run ning was the feature of the game. M. Halsey’s fielding was phenom enal. The score was: FKESII. POSITIONS. A. B K. 1). H. P o. ▲ . 1.

The Sophs had a very narrow escape in Thursday’s game. During the fifth inning, the score standing five to three in favor of the Seniors, a very dark and windy cloud swept over the field, resulting .in the game being called. Had the inning been completed the Seniors would have in all probability won. However, according to the rules the game will have to be played on Saturday. Pettis will have to improve won dcrfully or the Seniors will lift him from the box. Eight hits in five innings is a pretty showing. The score was: / > The heaviest hitters in college are: UAMEB.

It will be observed that of these three are Lawyers, one is Junior, three Sophomores and one Fresh man. There are no Seniors in the list. The best bitters in the Senior class are McCulclien and Upson, both have 30", Besides these mentioned the Law yers have Herty, Welch, Mitchell and Lester, who have averages of 300 or more. The Juniore have Kemp, the Sophomores have Pettis, .1., F. Fleming and Harrow, C. In this list as in the other, the Lawyers lead. They have seven men, and besides Prof. Morris is one of the heaviest hitters in ool- i lege, but so far he has batted in bard luck. FOOTBALL REVISION. At a meeting of the committee appointed to consider changes in the rules of football, held in New York on Saturday, March 31, the following changes were agreed upon: Piling upon men when down shall incur a penalty of 15 yards. A man who makes a fair catch, shall, if thrown, be given 15 yards. Flying ami momentum mass plays shall not be allowed. | Aftei a drop kiok for goal, on one down, the hall shall he brought back to the 10 yard line ami not to the 25 yard line, as heretofore. A touchdown shall count 2 points; touchdown with goal 3 points; goal from field 3 points; safety 1 point. In case of a tie the goals from touchdown shall have one point added to its score. Delays from any cause shall not exceed three minutes; only one offi cial representative of each side shall be allowed upon the field; penalties for off-side play and hold ing shall he increased from five yards to ten yards. These changes will probably be submitted to the various colleges for their approval before they are finally adopted.— Kt. CL ASS-TREE'EXERCISES. THE DEFEAT OF THE .11 MORN The class.free exercises rendered by the Senior on tin campus, were beautiful ami imposing The pro gramme was of unusual . p-rest and carried out well. The exercises opened by n brief ami able prayer by the chaplain, Mr. Madden. Then the ((resident in a few select and well chosen words introduced Mr. McGregor, “Poet.” He came forward with a kind word for all. His gentle hu mor containing a few “hits” at the faculty and Seniors was greeted with laughter. His poem was in teresting, and evinced the fact that much arduous labor had Mcen ex. pended in its preparation. His ac- j count of the record of the class of '94 was more than interesting, [during his narrative of the class record morally, socially ami in tellectually. The Fresh. Sophs, and Juniors interposed with cheers and seemingly said their record is well worthy of imitation. The class song was then sung. This was written and set to unisic by '94’h most talented musician, Mr. Beckett. It is unique and is a grand and nob e tribute to the boys of '91. Its words will be recalled and it., tune will be bummed when the Seniors have journeyed far along life's pathway. Next was planting the tree, which was watered by “sau de vie.” At Ibis juncture the yell of the class was given, after which the “pipe of peace” was passed around. Ltst was the benediction by Prof. Harrow. Tims olosed “tree” day. The ex ercises surpassed any other “tree” exercises held upon the campus in many years. The Lucy Cobb girls were down to last Saturday’s game. I here was sorrow ami depression In the noble Junior class, For the Freshmen were triumphant, Ami the Junior's hopes were blasted. The maroon and black was drooping. While tile black amt orange guy Waved upon the field triumphant, “117” won tlie day. It was sad to toll the story That the great game had been played. Fifteen runs wore scored the Freshmen, Only ten the Junior's made. No, dear reader, I will tell you The reason of this (light, And try to make you understand The losing of the tight. Now Gammon was the twirler For the class of “95," And to place the sphere within the plate He vainly, vainly tried. It was one ball, it was two halls, And for four halls lie was sure, So the Freshmen ran the bases As was never seen before. The crowd cried oil for Ridley! •lust to twirl the sphere a lilt, l'<> Gammon though he vainly tried Was very iiml hit So the farce oi p vug Iium'mM lly the Junior team w, ul mi Ami men who gave just three to om t ried would I'd ne’er been horn. But at last the farce was ended, And the players left the Held, The Juniors in despondent throngs, The Freshmen full of weal. —G. W. Rkaii, '95. Miss Katie Louise DttHose is visiting in Macon.
