There was much more dash in the pliay aid the team work was excellent. Caley again played at guard and got into every play. His coming has wondes-n fully strengthened the center of toe I line. Hannan played th. fulltbak position id made an excellent held goal frosm the 35-yard line. Hogg and Pingree each made excellent dodginsg runs of 30 yards. Three touchdownst were scored on the second scrubs ad sa field goal on the first scrubs, a kick- sing game 'being played againsiit te at ter. Neither of the scrub teasgot nearer than the 40 yard ine to the 'varsity's goal. Steckel, who playd tackle on the first scrubs, showed up especially strong, a's did McLean at1 ialf-back. Lockwood was out in usni- form for the first time in over a week, but did no active work. Allen, at onee timse captain of the Stanford Univer- sity team, was out for the first time.

'Phe local clergy and some members of the faculty are sp in arms over the appearance of the Corbetti-itzsisss- mon's verisope pictures at the Athenss Thea'tre Saturday night. The follow- ing petition shows their setim(nlts on the matter: "We, the undersigtled, ha e seens with deels regret that the verisope pictures of Corbett-Fitzsiiunohs fight as announced to be exhibited at the Athens Theatre, next saturday night. It seems to as iss view of the neces- sarify brutalizing effect of the exhib- ition of such pictures, scarcely l s tbrutalizing than that of the fight itself, t asnouncement of the exhibitions ought to be withdrawn and in view of the inevitably evil effects of the ex- hibition upon those who attend, 'and, ineod, directly or indirectly tupsi lithe whole body of young people gathered in this great educational ce'ter, we respectfully suggest to the maunage- ment the propriety of withdrawing the same. It is signed by anl 'the local clergy, Pres. Hutchins, Deans Hudson, Taft, Vaughan, Greene, Prescott, Re- gent Dea. n,and Prof. Thompson. Golf Club Organizes.

NANSEN COMING. The Great Explorer in the S. L. A. Course. Dr. Nanses is a hardy Norseman, and ie looks it, every inch of hiis. He is very tall-full six feet, if not An [ch or two above it. He has a fine, clear complexion, fair hair and mus- tache. The face is that of a man of keen intelligence, of marked deter- imination, of gentle and kindly dispo- sition. There is a peculiarly soft and tender look in the blue eyes, and the smile is very sweet, lighting up one of he brightest faces. The nouth is very firm, indicating the stresgith of will and independence so often sssifested in this great man's actions. His man- ner is most retiring and mooest, yet so easy and confidenee-inspiring that to be in his company is to feel one is with a friend and to feel at ahme.
