COMMENCEMENT GRIFFITH ONLY HILLTOPPER BURKE WALSH WINS PREACHER CHOSEN TO STAR AT PENN GAMES ELOCUTION MEDAL

Bishop Denis J. O'Co.nnell, D. D., Will Deliver the Baccalau-

reate Sermon June 6.

Georgetown Speedster Does Quarter in Forty-nine Seconds in Pouring Rain—Rest of Team Makes Poor Showing.

Freshman Comes Out First in a Contest Marked by Charac-

terizations of Madness.

The Baccalaureate sermon, the first event of the Commencement week, will be preached this year, in "The Walks,"

[on Sunday, June 6, by the Right Rev- erend Denis J. O'Connell, D.D., bishop of Richmond.

The Regents, Faculties, Alumni and graduating classes of the departments will march in procession to "The Walks" promptly at 10 :15, when a solemn High Mass will be sung, with the Rev. Will- iam Reynolds Cowardin, chaplain of the University, as celebrant. It is anticipat-

ed that the Rev. Mark McNeal, S.J., '94, and Rev. William Graham, '05, will be ieacon and subdeacon respectively. The seniors will serve the Mass, with John "'rendergast as Master of Ceremonies.

Mr. Edward P. Donovan, '18, organist jf St. Paul's Church, in Washington, will direct the music, to be rendered by

the College choir. The Mass that will be sung is one of the Director's own composition.

On Monday the customary athletic events will be staged on Varsity Field,

relay race will be run between the college and law departments, and the

! Dental and Medical schools. There will also be a pentathlon in which one senior from each of the schools will take part, fr. Thomas A. Dean will represent the

college. Following the pentathlon a baseball game is to be played between the Alumni and the Seniors. Freddie ?ees is looking out for the "grads" line- up, and Jim Caffrey is piloting the Uni- versity team.

THE HOYA will announce the remain- der of the program for the Class Day exercises as soon as available.

for Connolly to fritter away. There is no fault to find with Connolly, of course. He doesn't even profess to be a quar- ter miler. He hasn't the natural speed for the distance. To send him in as "anchor man" was a ridiculous bit of strategy.

GEORGETOWN MAN HONORED.

Washington newspapers reported last week the appointment of Col. Anton Stephan to the post of Commander of the District National Guard. Col. Ste- phan was graduated from the George- town Law School in '91, and became a nember of the guard he now commands

the same year. He is a veteran of the ■ Spanish-American and World wars, both [on the battle front and as a commander of training camps.

As a reward for his distinguished services in France in 1918, the French government has awarded the colonel with the Order of the Black Star decoration.

While world's records were going by the board up in Philadelphia last Friday and Saturday, Georgetown's chosen band of baton luggers failed to display the Olympic calibre they had been accused of having, and the Blue and Gray runners were defeated in the two events in which they competed. Griffith alone measured up to expectations, dashing off his quarter in Friday's medley relay in forty-nine seconds flat. With the rain pouring down in torrents, making the going very heavy, the blond baby tore around the track, outstripping the field by twelve yards at the finish, and showing himself the fastest quarter- miler at the games. He took the lead from the start, going around the first turn well to the front, and finished by touching off Auray with a dozen yards to spare.

Connolly proved, if possible,- the big- gest single disappointment of the meet. His work in the mile on Friday was anything but pleasing, he being clocked in 4:40 for the distance. The winner copped with 4:33, and had "the king of dancing masters" turned in a mark of 4:25 the medley would have gone to Georgetown without difficulty.

Nor would this have been asking too much of him, either. Early in the year he won the Medley at Urbana, 111., in 4 ::?6 and was pushed very little to do it. Before coining to Georgetown he was running consistently around 4:20, and gave promise of being, as more than one sports writer has phrased it, "the daddy of them all." But it would seem that those days are. gone, and forever. He will have to do a lot of work to get down again under 4:30, while nothing short of a miracle must happen if he is to be clocked again in 4 :20.

The South Atlantic mile relay, won by Johns Hopkins, was a race that should never have passed out of George- town's hands. Its loss is attributable to poor generalship on the part of the powers, rather than to any fault of the runners themselves. Jimmy Connolly was sent in to run last for Georgetown, and Jimmy knows less about running a quarter than an unborn babe does about running a "red dog" game. The posi- tion of "anchor man" in a fast mile re- lay is one that calls for the pick of the team, both in speed and in experience. It is there that relays are won and lost.

Such being the case, Jimmy was the last man in the world we would have picked to finish off the business. Un- fortunately, we didn't have the picking. From our seat in the stand we could only look on while Griffith, McDonough and Auray went to the barrier one at a time and piled up a comfortable lead

The contest for the Dixon Elocution Medal was held on Sunday night in Gaston Hall. Of the eight speakers, J. Burke Walsh, of the Class of '22, was awarded the medal for the excellent way in which he delivered the piece, "Search- ing for the Slain." His voice conveyed the idea of true pathos and his charac- terization of the mother searching for her killed son was very effective. The other speakers, in order of their appear- ance, were: William McGuire. who de- livered "The Leper"; Robert Winsatt, "The Tell-Tale Heart"; Joseph A. Mc- Donough, "Gunga Din"; Joseph A. O'Connell, "Fleurette"; John S. Mc- Cann, "The Progress of Madness"; Albert May, "Mad Mag"; John Jacobs, "The Man With One Talent"

The judges were Mr. Arthur A. Alex- ander, of the Law School; Dr. George B. Ellis, of the School of Dentistry; Dr. William F. Notz, of the School of Foreign Service; John Saul, '18, of the Graduate School, presided. The preva- lency of insanity in the selections chosen was remarked upon by the chairman of the judges in announcing the decision. The supplications to Jehovah that rose in the course of the speeches might have led one, who did not understand the sit- uation to believe that he had come upon some plagued assembly of people, but, of course, that was not the case.

To those possessed of a vivid imagi- nation, the stage of Gaston Hall repre- sented successively the parched Sahara, a house at mid-night and a corpse strewn field. Then the gore and mud vanished in a twinkling only to find us shivering in the highland mountains. The di- versity of location should have lent pleasant variety to the scene, but through all the climatic changes stalked Madness following as though through a maze of night-mares ready to pop up whenever the audience thought they had lost him

"Red" McDonough ran a surprisingly good race in his quarter. After Grif- fith had started him off with a ten-yard lead, he sailed out in great fashion and added another five yards to the start he gave Auray. Auray held his own nicely,

and Connolly got the stick with a fifteen- yard lead.

Tn the medley relay of the preceeding day, it might perhaps have been a wise thing if "Red" had been selected to go the half mile. Auray is by no means a half miler, and while our defeat in the event seems to have been a foregone conclusion, it is quite likely that Mc- Donough would have given a good ac- count of himself. After Griffith had done his forty-nine second quarter and started Auray off with ten or twelve yards to spare, Auray proceeded to drop these twelve yards and perhaps a score more, so that when Fitzgerald started off on his three-quarter jaunt, he was a good twenty yards behind the leaders. His ankle had mended fairly well and gave him little trouble, but though he gave the best that was in him, he failed to hold his own, dropping behind another twenty or thirty yards. All told, Con- nolly got off with a fifty-yards handicap to overcome, and while this would have held no terrors for the Woburn boy of a year ago, the man who ran at Phila- delphia last Friday was not the Woburn boy of a year ago. He knows it now himself.

Johnny Feeney had a discuoraging time in the high jump. He couldn't lift himself over the bar at 5 feet, 10% inches, being tied with six others for second place. First place went to Penn- sylvania with a jump of six feet, three- quarter inches. Feeney has jumped bet- ter during the year, and should have had no difficulty in doing it Saturday. But the old Georgetown jinx was with him that day, doing unto him as it was pre- paring to do unto the others in the South Atlantic a few minutes later.

JUNIORS HOLD HIGH FESTIVAL

Vote of Appreciation Given Class President at Annual

Banquet.

Air. Godfrey Raupert, noted as the best authority on Spiritism in the coun- try today, was a visitor at the college on Nlonday, when he took luncheon with the faculty.

St. Mark's Cafe was the scene last Tuesday evening of the formal banquet of the junior class of the college. Chair- man Jim Butler and his assistants on the committee on arrangements had plenty of good things to eat. some novel favors, and one of the liveliest orchestras in Washington.

Murray McElhinney, president of the class, introduced Leo Casey, who acted as toastmaster of the evening. Bill Mc- Namara. speaking on "Colvinism vs. Ir- rationalism," made a big hit. while Ed. O'Brien told what he had learned about the fair sex in his home city of Wash- ington. He used as the title for his speech the name of the popular fox trot, "The Vamp," and those that were there say that none of the thrills were left out. Charlie Regan, the clever HOYA humorist, was as much at home as an after-dinner speaker as with the type- writer and his talk abounded with the humor that has made his column so pop- ular. Meredith Reid, the new president of the Philodemic Debating Society, spoke "Concerning '21." Mer. handled his subject in his usual entertaining way, and drove home some poignant facts on class spirit.

Several members of the faculty were present and addressed the gathering. At the suggestion of the toastmaster, a ris- ing vote of appreciation was given the class president, who leaves Georgetown this week for a rest. He wil leave his home in New York shortly for Colo- rado.

Besides Mr. Butler, the committee in- cluded John Brooke. Phil Hahn and Dick Mudd.

GOOD SPORTSMEN. When Mrs. J. Hartley Manners, more

widely known as Laurctte Taylor, decided to cross the Atlantic to give the British public the pleasure of "One Night in Rome," she knew the English were a hunch of sportsmen, and the subsequent misdemeanors of her first-night audience didn't appall her greatly. She gave them a second chance, and the daily press c< :>■ Tts that she received a great ovation. They are a bunch of sportsmen, these Britishers, which nobody can deny.

They sent a squad of fleet-footed ath- to the Penii names, and took their ' and their victory alike. When

thcii' highly touted Montague lost his three-mile effort to Nightingale, m' New Hampshire, the British coach was the hr-t to congratulate Nightingale. The morning paper contained his further statement that Nightingale was a better man than you arc. Montague, etc. And when the Islanders copped the two-mile relay, smashing the world's record for the event by some four seconds, the

t hands on the field were those same insular contestants.

I 11 course we are inclined to favor the chance- of the yacht Vauitie if it hap-

et Sir Thomas Upton's Sham- rock IV this summer, hut our hat 1 to the grand old sport. We could wish that he were an American, for his is a type that we much admire.

DISSOCIATED NEWS By R. F. C.

How to Avoid Taking Your Girl to Dinner After a Tea Dance.

1. When you are inviting her make it clear and very emphatic that you are a veritable devil around school in matters of discipline, but have persuaded the faculty to grant you 7:30 permission (tea dance ends at 7 o'clock).

2. On the way down town stop at Joe's dairy and purchase a tomato sand- wich, which can be easily carried in the inside vest pocket. If your girl looks hungry when it is time to leave invite her to have a bite to eat.

.'i. While dancing hover around the punch bowl this will fill her up much better than your line.

4. Always offer her a stick of gum— she will be stuck on that (Tutti-Frutti) preferred.

.">. While passing restaurants on the way hojne (walking preferred) empha- size the fact that it is a crime that you have to he in so early (it might be well to elaborate on the supper that you had at the Shoreham one time).

ti. If she brings up the fact that some of the other boys that she danced with have permission until 9 o'clock just tell her that they are sissies.

7. If on arriving home she startles you with an invitation to dine with her try to appear normal (although we agree is is quite impossible) and solve the problem in either of two ways: ( 1 ) Thank her and graciously decline. (2) Call her bluff and tell her you will take a chance on expulsion (we have every reason to believe that the faculty would be lenient in such a case).

P. S.—The writer has used his own advice on many an occasion and would say that the reason he never appears at any tea dances is because he can't get a girl to go with him. However, if the above advice meets with favorable re- sults, please mention the HOYA.

We just heard that Samson (Lionel Strongfort's father) slept in an iron bed with tin sheets, being rather a heavy sleeper. Even at that he wasn't strong enough to lift a suspension.

It is rumored that there is likely to be a shortage of fruit hut B0B0 writes that this means nothing in Washington ( BoBo's got the stuff).

Truly it is a hair-raising feet for a man to drink Fd. Pinauds.

There is a rumor veiled i 1 dark mys- tery floating around the school to the effect that the Senior Prom this year will be conducted under the auspices of the Senior Class.

Today's Personal : Mass was celebrat- ed yesterday at 7 o'clock in Dahlgren Chapel. The students attended in a body.

for the benefit of our eaters we have written to Mr. Webster himself to find out the true meaning oi Refectory.

A recent communication from If Brief, a short-story writer, informs us that the long standing record of Steve Brodie was broken when an inhabitant of Brooklyn sick and tired of living in the borough next to New York, dove off the famous bridge into the funnel of a passing tugboat and upon emerging from the furnace was so full of tire ami steam that he jumped upon the bridge again.

On Tuesday of last week the Trinity College girls played their annual base- ball game with National Park. The Trinitj team suprised their admirers (all girls), when they appeared on the field with mittens instead of gloves. When the umpire called a strike the Trinity girls belonging 10 the Nunnally's Union walked off the field and went back to school to prepare another dance.

A SUGGESTION. A graduate of one of the state uni-

versities of the West, who is now study- ing Law at Georgetown, had occasion to visit the Hilltop last week, and in the course of his wanderings through vari- ous buildings, was heard to comment very audibly on the condition of the telephone service throughout the school. From the trend of his conversation, this student of the School of Law was cer- tainly not highly impressed by the sight of two broken-down telephone booths, situated outside of the College Store. Although our position is only one in which we may suggest improvements, we cannot help hut think that the im- pression, made on this new student of the Law School is but indicative of that formed by every newcomer to the halls of the otherwise progressive Hill- top. Here there are two phones in- stalled for the use of a resident student body of almost four hundred young men. Indeed, the writer has observed, in a local drug store, at least six phone booths merely for the use of the trade. So much for the direct accommodation of the students. But our visitor may ask, "What of the service and courtesy that should be shown the friends of the students; what of the emergency mes- sage that must be delivered to him im- mediately; what of the phone call from a mother or relative who has just ar- rived in town?"

If experience is any basis lor an opin- ion, the courtesy will not be extended by him who occupies the chair of service in the porter's lodge. The action rend- ered by him who accidently appears near the phone when the call is made is not dependable, nor can the man who rooms in North be expected to hear the plain- tive appeals of some weak-lunged stu- dent who happens to be over in the store at his daily bargaining for sweets. It has been suggested that additional phone booths be installed in appropriate places in the dormitories, for example, a sepa- rate phone in Ryan, in Maguire, in Healy and in North. But whatever he done to remedy the outrage some im- provement along the lines intimated would certainly meet with universal ap- preciation.

DELTA PHI EPSIL0N INITIATES TWENTY

"Foreign Service" Fraternity Lis-] tens to Prominent Speakers

at Second Banquet.

The Delta Phi F.psilon fraternity o the School of foreign Service held it second initiatory banquet at the Ne Fbbitt Hotel Saturday night. Twentj candidates were initiated into the fra ternity.

The guests of the frat were Rev. John B. Creeden. S.I.; Rev. Edmund Aj Walsh, S.J.; Hon. Edwin F. Sweet, Dr. C. E. McGuire, Hon. Huston Thompson and Dr. William Xotz.

The banquet opened with President Halleck A. Butts proposing a toast tj the future of Delta Phi Epsilon.

Edwin F. Sweet. Assistant Secretary of Commerce, addressed the gathering on the duties of Citizenship. He spoke at great length on beha'f of legislation, limiting or prohibiting campaign expen- ditures of candidates seeking public office.

Huston Thompson, member of the Federal Trade Commission told the ban- queters of the powers invested by Con- gress in the Federal Trade Commission for regulating unfair trade practices. He. stated that this country needs an internal trade commission and said that foreign countries were rapidly following our ex^ ample in establishing such commissions.! He said that the aim of America should 1 be to capture the confidence of the peo- ple rather than capture the world mar- kets.

The list of initiates of the fraternity included Dr. R. S. MacElwee, assistant director of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce; Dr. C. E. Maguire, of the International High Commission3 Dr. Perry J. Stevenson, newly appointed Trade Commissioner to South Africa; Dr. P. R. Eldridge, chief of the Far East Division of the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, and Consul Wesley Frost, foreign Trade Advise! of the State Department. Senator David I. Walsh, of Massachusetts, was in attendance at the banquet.

Dyer Hays, of the Law School. rowly escaped serious injury while ridin_ through Rock Creek Park on last Sat- urday afternoon. It seems that "Two Gun." as he is popularly known, was conducting a too earnest conversation with his female companion and, uncon- sciously, drove his horse over an in- cline, the result being that Dyer, who had been relaxing in the saddle, was precipitated therefrom, ending his sud- den fall at the foot of the bank, aid treatment, such as was immediately handy, was administered, however, and the party was able to continue home- ward.

Greater X-ray Service- through Research

FOR years after the discovery of X-rays it was evident that only

intensive research could unfold their real possibilities.

Meanwhile, scientists of the General Electric Company developed the pro- cess of making wrought tungsten. This proved ideal as the target in X-ray tubes and its use for this purpose soon became universal.

Then further research resulted in the development of an X-ray tube of a radically new type •— the Coolidge Tube — with both electrodes of Radiator- wrought tungsten and containing the type highest attainable vacuum.

Self- rectifying,

But the complication of high-vacuum pumps made the new tube in large

Coolidge X-ray Tube

quantities impossible. The answer to this problem was the Langrnuir Con- densation Pump, utilizing mercury vapor in its operation and almost automatic.

To meet the need for simple X-ray apparatus during the war, the G-E Laboratory developed the Self-Recti- fying Coolidge Tube, which made possible portable outfits at the front. The latest X-ray outfit of this type is so small it can be taken conve- niently to the home or to the bedside in the hospital.

Thus the Research Laboratory of the General Electric Company continues to serve, that progress in things elec- trical may continue for the good of humanity.

Dr. Walsh and Dr. Bogart to Ad- dress National Foreign Trade

Convention, May 12.

Rev. Edmund A. Walsh. S.J., regent' of the School of Foreign Service, and Dr. Ernest L. Bogart. professor in Money and Banking at the school will attend the National Foreign Trade Con- vention to be held in San Francisco, May It. Both Father Walsh and Dr. Bogart have been invited to deliver papers be- fore the convention which is expected to have an important bearing on the fixture of world trade.

Arrangements have been made for the handling of the classes of Father Walsh and Dr. Bogart, and they will leave this week for the convention. A revised schedule of classes will become effective at the Foreign Service School during the week. Dr. McNeal, of Japan, and Dr. McGuire of the International High Com- mission, will deliver lectures to the Eng- lish and the Money and Banking classes during the absence of the regular teach- ers.

The fact that the regent and one of the professors of the Foreign Service School have been invited to speak be- fore the convention which will be at- tended by the most prominent commer- cial and industrial leaders in the coun- try, places the school on the highest pin- nacle that any university department may ever hope to achieve. It is expect- ed that the new school of Georgetown will be looked upon in the future with wider interest by the captains of com- merce and industry than ever before.

Already many of the foreign trade leaders of the United States have given their heartiest congratulations to the heads of the University and have ex- pressed their willingness to co-operate with the school in every way possible.

STUDENTS ENJOY RECTOR'S FEAST

Sophomores Receive the Two Loving Cups Won in the

Interclass Games.

The banquet in honor of the President, the Rev. J. B. Creeden, S.J.. which was held in Ryan Hall on Sunday, May 2. was thoroughly enjoyed by those who attended. The peppy music and a well- selected menu left nothing to be desired in the way of entertainment or food. To Joe O'Connell, who represented the Shophomore Class, were presented two fine loving cups, one for totaling the largest number of points in the late In- ter-class Track Meet and the other for winning the Inter-class relay.

Father Rector spoke for a short time upon Dr. Kober as an example to Georgetown young men, especially be- cause he is a man who devoted nearly half his life to a good cause for which he received absolutely no financial re- turn, but rather aided the cause with his own financial support. It was not gen- erally known, he told us, that after Dr. Kober arrived at the age of forty, having amassed sufficient capital to enable him to live in moderate comfort he put his whole heart and soul into the develop- ment of the Georgetown Medical School and Hospital and yet would accept no salary for his work as professor and later as Dean.

The suggestion has been made by one of the students of the Law School that if the baseball games were started at 3 P. M., they would cater to a greater attendance from the downtown institu- tion, whose classes commence at 5:10 in the afternoon, than they do at present. The suggestion is an admirable one, if only from the standpoint of showing some consideration to the Law students who are holders of season tickets.

V. M. I. COMES EASY FOR HILLTOPPERS

Hyman Has No Difficulty in An- nexing Game From the

Cadets, 7-1.

Sam Hyman pitched the Georgetown nine to a 7-1 victory over the Virginia Military Institute, on the varsity field last Saturday afternoon. Up until the sixth session it was as pretty a pitchers' battle as one would wish to see. with Hyman and Page on the points, but the sixth proved fatal to the visitors, for the Blue and Gray team pushed three across the plate and practically cinched the game. Later, for good measure, in the seventh, the Hilltoppers repeated the performance.

The errors made by V. M. 1. were the chief aid in the seven to one count. Page pitched good ball, but the support he received from his team mates was poor.

The visitors uncorked a star short- stop in Stuart, who was a great help to V. M. I. in keeping the Hilltoppers from running up a larger score.

Besides pitching winning ball, Hyman got three hits off V. M. I., one of them being a double. The score :

Baseball As Is And -Sh-H!-As Was

Wonder why a baseball game between the Seniors and some of our veteran Alumni couldn't be arranged during Commencement Week ? This is the thought that came to the mind of Ye Scribe as he was delving into the past of "Baseball at Georgetown." amongst the moth-eaten tomes in the Archives.

The Seniors would, of course, display plenty of zest and accuracy, and judging from the records, some of the old stars should be able to give them a merry battle. In looking up the merits of the old Georgetown players the discovery was made that as run-getters, the teams of fifty years ago make Jimmy Sullivan's wrecking crew look worse than the pal- sied proteges of Hughy Jennings. For instance, in 1870, Georgetown won two games from her old rival, George Wash- ington University (then Columbian Col- lege), by the scores of 73 to 14 and 69 to 24.

In those days there were two clubs at the Hilltop, called the Stonewalls and the Quicksteps, who played a regular schedule between themselves, while occa- sionally an outside team was permitted to enter the grounds long enough to play a game with a picked team. And at these games there were never any spectators to cheer the athletes on, either. On spe- cial occasions, though, the first one was in the spring of '06, invitations were senl out for one of these games, and a committee was on hand at the gate to inspect the visitors and only the elite were admitted, who would not scandalize the players by loud shouts or cheering.

Men like IAI. George E. Hamilton, Dean of the Law School; Mr. John

Agar. member of the Rockefeller En- dowment Fund, and others still promi- nent in the professional or business world, were on the teams in those days. It is recorded that Mr. Hamilton, play- ing shortstop, in one game, garnered seven hits, one a clean home run, out of seven times at the bat, and put two men out on "foul bounds." (That was when a man was out if a batted ball was caught on the first bounce.)

What is generally remembered as one of the most exciting of the old games was played between the Stonewalls and the Quicksteps in April. 1872. Father Win. R. Cowardin, S.J., then a scholastic umpired and the Stonewalls won 40-37, the game lasting four hours and five minutes. Nobody wore gloves or pads, and errors weren't counted, but when a man was put out it was called a "good play."

Father Cowardin. whose keen interest in baseball brings him out to the porch for every game, has been looking over Sullivan's warriors, and avers that they wouldn't have a chance against one of the old-time clubs. He suggested the following team, diamond warriors tried and true, still in the prime of life, as a good aggregation to battle the Seniors in June :

James B. Tracey, '74, catcher. Thos. A. Badeaux, '71. pitcher. Charles Harris. '71, first base. Ezequiel De Elia, '71, second base. John Agar. '7.;. third base. George E Hamilton, '72, shortstop. William Hearne. '69. right field. Edward Fink, '13, center field. George E. Camalier. '71, left held.

KAPPA ALPHA PHI ENJOY "THE SMOKES"

"It's always fair weather when g fellows get together" was the watch- word of the members of the Kappa Al- pha Phi fraternity of the Foreign Ser- vice School at an informal smoker held at the Ebbitt Hotel. Saturday night.

The affair was a get-together event for the fiat members, and it was a decided success. A select entertaining bill was presented and the performers acquitted themselves creditably.

The Montrose Quartet, one of the best singing combinations in Washington, de- lighted the fellows with their brand new songs that were rendered exceedingly well. Jinunie Donahue's rendition of "He's a Fine Little Man" was done in a way that.would put Andrew Mack to shame. Navins and McDonald rendered several songs that were well liked, while Cootie, "He of the best colored jazz ar- tistS in Washington, who carries his own jazz with him, did himself up brown, with the boys.

Cigars, cigarettes and refreshments were then in order. The fraternity will give a banquet and dance May 22.

Bob LeGendre, former Pentathlon Champion of the country, had to stand bj on crutches last Saturday afternoon and see the title won by an athlete whose scores he had topped many times in practice this spring. Bob would have been almost certain of five first places. lie fore he injured his leg he was hurling the javeline and throwing the discus farther than any one did at the meet the other day. Prior to his injury he was doing seven or eight inches better in the broad jump than the mark on which this event was won. His specialty was the 2(io and 1,500 meter dashes. These looked easy for him on the franklin Field path. But even though he did not compete for this title, it is almost assured that he will he present at the Olympic tryouts in July, and here he can come back in the Hexa- thlou event.

SOPHOMORES WIN A CLOSE GAME

Freshmen Defeated 2-0 in the Best Interclass Game of

the Season.

Too much Jack Smith! This is the simple story of the 2-0 defeat handed the Freshmen by the Sophs last Sunday morning in the fastest ^and cleanest-cut class game played on the Hilltop this sea- son.

The game was a pitchers' duel be- tween Smith and Coniff throughout, and when the smoke of battle had cleared away Smith stood out as a bit better than his opponent. Although few hits were made off of either pitcher, and al- though each struck out about the same number of men, Coniff did not prove as effective as the Soph slabman in pinches. Both twirlers had the full sup- port of their team in the field.

It was not until the fourth inning that the first run of the game was re- corded. Nick Butler walked, stole sec- ond, went to third on Helfrich's sacri- fice, and scored on Leary's single to left. The next few innings were scoreless. In the eighth Arch walked, went to sec- ond on a passed ball, made third on Strother's liner through short and crossed the plate when Carney sent a clean one into left.

In the fourth the first-year men got a man on second and third with one down. Here Smith tightened up, leaving them stuck to the sacks. The next inning found them with two more on and one out. But a double play. Wise to Daley, killed their hopes of scoring. From then on the home plate was never threatened by a '23 man. The summary :

FRESHMEN LOSE TO THE JUNIORS

Loose Fielding in the Eighth Gave the Class of '21 Its

Second Game.

For the second time this season the Juniors have made an underclass team bow to them on the diamond, thus rating first place in the inter-classe league. This time they showed their supremacy by humbling the Freshmen on the upper field last F'riday afternoon by a 6-5 score. Although both sides had a number of errors chalked up to their credit, some stellar ball was played in the field.

It was in the second inning that the Freshmen started the scoring by putting Armstrong across for a tally. In the fourth they added another run to their credit, when Ed. McCormick scored after he pounded out a two-bagger. Two more runs were made in the sixth and victory seemed within the grasp of the class of '23 with the big end of a 4 to 1 score claimed by them. But this was not to last for many innings.

It was in the eighth that the Juniors started their bombardment, and the Freshmen began to field loosely. Cain, who was first up for the Juniors in this inning, sent out a long fly to left which was good for two bases. Carlin followed with another double to left. Sisk and Etzel were thrown out in order at first. "Pop" Feeney took the stick next and sent a high one out to "Charlie" Coniff, which he misjudged. This scored two men and left Feeney half way home. Williams got on first. Then Groves shot up a high one, on which Feeney and Williams ran in. Courtney muffed the fly, and thus gave the third-year men two more runs. When the eighth closed the score read Juniors, 6; Freshmen, 4.

In the ninth the Fres>hies gained one more run when Le Roy completed the circuit after sending the ball for a long ride through the ozone, during which time he trotted around for three bases. They could not rally sufficiently though to regain their lost game.

Tom White, who was on the mound for the Freshmen, pitched a steady game and fought hard against his opponent, "Pop" Feeney, who is doing so well in the box for the Juniors. The summary:
