WEDNESDAY, MAY 7, 1913
For the past few
Dangerous weeks several men
have made it a prac
tice to play ball in near the Physics
Building notwithstanding the un-
written law, that ball-playing shall
not ensue in the vicinity of col-
lege buildings and walks
These men have hit the ball out
across the walks, and have also
•driven it through some windows.
It- would be wise policy for these
''enthusiastic sportsmen to consider
the,safety of other people, and at
the-same time to consider college
property, Our large grounds offer
-ample- opportunity for athletic
sports of all kinds, and if therefore
these hall players, would confine
their activity to the open fields,
they would not only refrain from
breaking the rules and regulations,
but they would also insure the
safety of pedestrians around the
Physics Building.
Please consider the fact, that a
ball signifies little danger to you,
when you are armed with a glove
ready to receive if; but the passer
by is not prepared to dodge such a
missil, and if it hits him in the side
of the head. serious consequences
are likely to follow.
During the past
Freshman few weeks numer-
Chapel Talks ous talks - have
been given in the
freshman chapel by members of
the faculty. Each spoke of his
Alma Mater and told her aims and
all the customs centered about her.
The talks were not only very in-
teresting but were also quite in
structive, as a first hand knowledge
of many colleges was to be ac
quired. They might well be con
tinued and even introduced for a
time, in the Auditorium in place of
the usual devotional exercises
Track News
What will doubtless prove one of
the most interesting events of next
Saturday afternoon's track events is
an interfraternity half mile relay
race that will occupy the last num-
ber of the program.
This race is open to every
fraternity in college and every
student not eating at the track
table is eligible. It is hoped that
most of the fraternities will be re
presented in this event.
At last Saturday's track trials
good marks were made in all the
events. Leyden ran the half mile
in one minute and fifty eight
seconds, White followed at the
heels of Piner in the 100 yard dash,
running it in 10 seconds flat.
Armsby showed up well in the
broad and high jump, winning both.
Armsby also tied with Hammitt in
the low hurdles. The time was 26
seconds flat. Keyser easily out
distanced the fietd in the two mile
run winning it in 10 minutes.
The number of lower classmen,
especially the sophomores, who
come out for daily track work is
rather discouraging. It should be
borne in mind that the interclass
meet is hardly more than two
weeks off and that Coach Martin is
always ready to coach any men
who care to come out, also to place
them on the varsity squad if they
given indications of promise.

Sophs Lose Again
By bunching their hits in the
s;xth inning aided by loose infield
work on the part of the sophomores
the freshmen defeated the sopho
mores last Tuesday by the score
of 9 to 6.
- Siedel, 'tor the - sop'nomore - s - ,
pitched well, holding the freshmen
to one hit for the first five innings
when the defense crumbled and the
freshmen batting rally began that
decided the game.
Following is the standing of the
teams:
Won lost Pct.
1913 2 0 1000
1916 2 1 666
1914 0 1 000

PRINCIPALS' CONFERENCE
Fifty-five High School Principals
Attended.
The Fourth High School Prin
cipals Conference was held at the
college on Friday, May 2nd, and
the results were highly gratifying to
both our visitors and faculty
representatives. About . fifty-five
high school principals from all parts
of the State attended the confer
ence and the following topics were
discussed in an informal way under
the direction of President Sparks,
Dean Weber, Dean Holmes and
Principal Robb, of the Altoona
High School. -
Are the high school and college
responsible for the character-train-,
ing of students ? How can it be
done ?
The new law introducing agri
culture and home economics into
the public schools. How can it
best be fulfilled ?
Can athletics be made of an
educational value ? How can we
get back to the idea of all the stu
dents playing some kind of game ?
Should a 1- iigh school diploma be
accepted foi college entrance ?
These conferences afford an
opportunity of bringing the
college and high school teachers
closer to ether and of get
ting the pri cipals into touch with
the college. Former students of
the various principals extended
courtesies t them while here. The
ing was especially en
he visitors. Another
ill be held next May.
