probably the strongest list of games ever produced for a Penn State nine is manager Wildox's offering for the approaching baseball season. A southern trip including three games is to start the season, which will end with a post-season trip to Vermont and Harvard. The usual eastern jaunt and an entirely new western journey as far as Michigan and Notre Dame, as well as the Cornell trip and some good home games, will fill up the remainder of the schedule. Stevens Institute, Brown, the Mt. Washington Athletic Club, Notre Dame, Michigan, Vermont and Harvard will be met by our base ball team for the first time, so that this spring's card is a radical de parture from the usual list. Every player who makes all the trips will use between five and six thousand miles of mileage, and thirteen play ers, the manager and physical di rector will compose Penn State's squad on each journey. Our team will have an excellent opportunity to show its worth in new fields and the games with Notre Dame, last year champions of the Middle West, and with -Vermont, the baseball leaders of the Northeast during 1908 are of more than ordinary moment. The Alumni game which was so successful in bringing out an en thusiastic throng last June is includ ed this year and Bucknell will also be a Commencement attraction. Manager Wilcox made every ef fort to bring several of the large eastern universities to Beaver Field for a game but his efforts were fruit less. Cornell wanted to come down here during our Easter vacation and no suitable date could be arranged with the others.

Our team made a record of five consecutive victories by whining from the Pittsburg Collegians here on Monday night. The visitors presented a line up of college and league stars, but their reputations availed nothing before State's un surpassable team work. Anderson, Lehigh's basketball captain of last year, must be given full credit for his work, however. Seldom has a man shat goals on the Armory floor with more accuracy; eight field goals and five fouls'made by Ander son gave a total of twenty-one points out of his team's twenty nine The Smoky City five held the white and blue even for a short time at first but when captain Waha's team got started, it passed the vis itors by leaps and bounds, and twenty points were scored in the last five minutes of play. Hermann, Reed and Waha were the most con spicuous in this slaughter, while Ross shot three goals in the short time he played during the second half. Crawtold and Herschel both got in several long, true shots. The Pittsburg Collegians surely appear to be a good attraction and although this was their first appearance here, they were warmly welcomed. The final home game is played with Swarthmore on Friday night. Bucknell is played at Lewisburg on Saturday and three additional games away from home with West Point, Manhattan and Swarthmore next week will complete a season which has so far been eminently success ful. even though difficulties have been encountered all along the way.

The popular and versatile com pany known as the Dunbars, male quartet and bell ringers, lived up to their reputation on Saturday even ing. when they entertained an en thusiastic audience for two hours. The bell-ringing proved to be as popular as ever, and they showed marked ability in reading, singing and on numerous musical instru ments . At the Y. M. C. A. meeting on Sunday evening, a member of the compaly sang two pleasing solos, accompanied by Miss Ather ton. It is safe to say that no number of the course has been more popular, and the company may be sure of a welcome if they return to State Col lege. B. D. Kunkle 'O7 Married. The many friends of B. D.
