Inspection.
The regular annual inspection of
the battalion was held Friday morn
ing at ten o’clock. The inspecting
was done by Major Gresham of the
United States Cavalry. The battal
ion presented an excellent appear
ance and although the inspection
was not so rigid as in several pre
vious years the rating will no doubt
be higher. The marching was ex
cellent as were all the maneuvers and
Captain Lawton expressed himself
as being well pleased with the drill
and inspection in general. Various
movements were executed on the
drill field above Dr. Gill’s residence
after the inspection and later an ex
hibition in skirmishing and charging
was given on the front campus.
Advance guard work was also per
formed by one of the companies.
A number of visitors were present
and viewed the inspection and work
of the battalion.
E. E. Society
The Electrical Engineering So
ciety enjoyed its last monthly
“Feed” of the year last Saturday
evening. The affair took on the
nature of a farewell reception to
the Seniors. Toasts appropriate
to the occasion were given. About
a dozen Lt'.ers from different 1904
Electricals were read and proved
exceedingly interesting.
STATE COLLEGE, PA., JUNE 1, 1905.
Base Ball
The members of the California
Normal Baseball team arrived here
last Friday afternoon. In the even
ing the fellows at the Track House
organized an impromtu stag dance
for the visitors.
The game started with the visitors
at the bat, but it took only enough
time for a one, two, three order to
retire the side. As usual State
started her batting part of the first
inning with a tremendous slaughter
on the opposing pitcher’s delivering.
In short order the first three batters
occupied bases. Mcllveen then put
finishing touches to the inning by
knocking out a three bagger, scor
ing three runs. Throughout the
game all State men played with
spirit consistent with the revenge for
the defeat of week before last.
Our boys hit so hard that in the
fifth inning McCleary was forced to
retire from the box and Abbot, who
pitched such excellent ball against
us in the first game, took his place.
The latter seemed to pitch better
ball but at times he was somewhat
wild.
In the field the Normal boys
played good ball with the exception
that the outfielders left several
grounders get past them.
Owing to the nearness of the east
ern trip Haverstick and Mcllveen
each pitched half the game as they
were scheduled to pitch Monday
and Tuesday against Villanova and
Princeton respectively.

NOTES OF THE DIAMOND
California Normal’s catcher is
quite a hand at coaching. His
“ginger” added considerable life to
the game. At times the game was
a regular circus.
The last game of the season with
Bloomsburg should prove an excit
ing one as Bloomsburg is playing ex
cellent ball this year.
California has a large number of
‘ ‘six-footers’ ’ on her team.
A younger brother of our short
stop, Cree, plays a good game at
second for the Normalities.
On Saturday evening last Mr.
George Kiernan, actor and imper
sonator gave a recital of the play
“Rip Van Winkle,” which helped
so much to endear the late Joe
Jefferson, to the hearts of Ameri
can theatre-goers. Mr. Kiernan
was, during the lifetime of Jefferson,
his personal friend, and learned at
first hand all the peculiarities of
Jefferson’s interpretation of Rip
Van Winkle’s character. times
the pathos of the story was deep
and true to life; at others the hu
mor expressed by voice and manner
was irresistable; and altogether it
was an entertainment of high order,
enjoyable from start to finish.
