A LOOSELY-PLAYED GAME
SOPHOMORES.
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.

WIND AND RAIS SAVKD THE SOPIIS.
FROM A SEEMING DEFEAT.
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. AVERAQK.
I Mcll, 2. 000.
2. Halsey, I,. 8. 507.
8. Pettis, W. 2. 545.
4. Hunter, P. 2. 600.
. I Warren, 2. 414.
I Ezelle, 2. 814.
,, (Cothran, 8. 4211.
IStralian, 2. 4211.
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.
