STATE COLLEGE, PA., MAY 11, 1905
Baseball.
Last Friday afternoon on Beaver
Field before a large and appreciative
audience State’s Varsity nine played
the star role in a roaring farce
comedy, entitled “It was a shame
to take the Mezuma,” or “All is
Silent in Carlisle To-night.” After
defeating Dickinson 10 to 2 down
at Carlisle two weeks ago with
Haverstick pitching, State put Mc-
Ilveen on the slab for the return
game on Beaver Field, and .what
“Mac” did to Dickinson was an ex
treme muchness. McKeown, a
youthful southpaw, who was fresh
from a 9to 1 victory over Ursinus,
with 14 strikeouts daugling at his
belt; —this same immature Mc-
Keown essayed to deliver the
sphere last Friday evening, and it is
reported the volcanic dust (large
ly composed of horse-hide) is still
falling over on Mount Nittany. It
was the most decisive baseball vic
tory which State has ever gained
from Dickinson, and it is putting it
very mildly to say that State com
pletely outclassed their rivals in
every department of the game. In
the fourth inning Dickinson got
their lonely hit a scratch single to
right field by Davis on which Moor
head came within an ace of retiring
the runner. Cree’s batting was a
feature, but the entire team batted
well, and fielded for Mcllveen in
perfect style. It was a great game
of ball from State’s view-point, and
many moons may roll around before
Dickinson is again lambasted in such
artistic fashion. Ross, the Fresh
man outfielder, was tried in middle
field, and performed in creditable
fashion, although nothing came his

Track News.
The track-team is fast developing
into winning form and should un
doubtedly give a good account of it
self in the dual meets with Dickin
son on May 20, and with the In
dians on May 22. The rumor that
the Dickinson meet had been can
celled owing to the : loss of then
grandstand by fire is probably false
as Manager Williams has not receiv
ed any such notification. In prac
tice recently Arnold, 'O6, ran the
hundred in 10 2-5 seconds and the
two-twenty in 23 4-5 second, and it
is thought that he will clip off the
fractions in each case in the races.
The inter-class relay-race, which
through a misunderstanding was
published as being on May 3, is to
to take place Saturday June 3. The
inter-class track meet will be held as
scheduled this week, Saturday, May
13, and the results will in a large
measure determine the team to be
taken to Carlisle next week.
Y. M. C. A. Campus Meeting,
On next Sunday evening at six
o’clock the Y. M. C. A. will hold an
open meeting on the front campus.
State students’ secretary, Miller,
will be here for the service, and will
probably make a short address on
the student conferences to be held
this summer at Northfield and Lake
side, Ohio. A sacered concert by
the band will a pleasing part of the
meeting, which, weather permitting,
should be as enjoyable and helpful
as the ones held last spring in the
same way. All are invited to come
out to this short service next Sunday
evening.
