able to do in several practices, with
all the candidates on hand.
Following the batting drill, the coach
lined .up his infield and gave the men
a long session of fielding and base
pegging. Tward, the veteran first
sacker, was not out; and Dwyer, the
youngster on the first string, appeared
at the initial corner. His work was
close up to the standard of the older
men, and apparently favorably im-
pressed the coach.
"Tommy" Hughitt was at his old
stand on third, and although andi-
capped with a sore hand, showed all
his accustomed "pep." The veteran
combination of Baker and McQueen
around the middle sack was working
like clockwork, and with Hippler at
the plate, the gym fans were treated
to a lightning fast workout. Benton
was given a brief stunt with the big
mit, before the coach -chased his men
down stairs.
In the batting practice, Quaintance
and Baribeau, the veteran hurlers, let,
themselves out, each having a world of
stuff. The doctor's spitter was. break-
ing well, and "Ack" was mixing all
his balls In excellent form.
Baer and Hippler handled the two
veterans, but the coach would not let
Baer throw any, as the latter's arm is
in bad shape. Hughitt and Davidson
are the other cripples on the squad,
both having a bad hand.
Lundgren is making his men work
out 'on the track this week, to -build
up their wind, and from now-,n the1
new lines of work will follow each
other rapidly. Early next week the
coach will probably begin teaching the
squad team work.
Seniors Nominate Class. Day Officers
At the senior engineer class meeting
today the following men will be voted
on for class day officers: orator, R.
Keliher, F. Miller, and W. Schomburg;

Bridge Players Must Catch Up Tonight,
Those who are behind in the Union
bridge tournament will have a final
opportunity to make up their back
games at 7:30 o'clock this evening at
the Union. The final round of the tour-
nament will be played tomorrow night.
Pewter steins will be given as prizes,
to the winners.
1914 LAWS OPPOSE
USUAL MEMORIAL
For the first time in the history ofl
the law department, the graduating
class is leaving without bestowing
some sort of a memorial to that de-
partment. This drastic action was!
taken at a recent meeting of the senior
law class when it decided it would
leave no memorial to the department,1
other than the class picture.
Many suggestions were made, pro-
posing new ideas relative to the gift,
among those being an addition to the
memorial fund left last year by thef
1913 class. This fund is used to assist
self-supporting students through col-I

FOUR MEN PICKED
FOR 2-MILE RELAY
Haff, Jansen, Griest and Murphy Will
Race Big Red Men in Meet
at Pittsburg
BROWN IS SUB; TRIALS SPEEDY
Trials, held yesterday afternoon, de-
cided the makeup of the quartet that
will run against Cornell in a two mile
relay race at the Pittsburg meet Sat-
urday. Haff, Jansen, Murphy, and
Griest were the runners who made
the best times in the trials, and Brown
will be carried as a substitute.
Trainer Farrell maintained sphinx-
like silence on the exact nature of the
marks made by his half milers, and
gave out nothing except the informa-
tion that Jansen made the fastest time
of"the four. The Trainer did not seem'
to be- dissatisfied with the result, so
there is some reason to believe that
all of them clipped off the half mile]
distance at close to two minutes.
It was expected that Fox would beat
out Brown for the substitute position,
but, the veteran showed some of his
last year's form, and came back strong1
enough to cinch the fifth berth.
Brown won the first race over Lam-
ey, but according to Trainer Farrell,
made the poorest time of any of the
leaders in the other races. Jansen won
the second race, with Griest second,
and Fox third. The third and last,
race was won by Haff with Murphy
second.

PAGEANT SUFFERS
SCARCITY OF MEN
Though the time for the production
of the Joan of Arc pageant is still dis-
tant, keen interest is being shown by
those signing up on the lists as can-
didates for the cast, and Prof. H. A.
Kenyon is receiving many questions
about the pageant.
The women are turning out excep-
tionally well to try for the pageant,'
but owing to a misunderstanding of the'
time for signing the lists, the men have
been fairly slow to report. Therefore,:
the senior and junior men may both
sign up today at Prof. Kenyon's office
in the old engineering building. Soph-
