very strongly the advisability of con sidering the organization of a branch Alumni Association for Cleveland. Between 30 and 40 Juniors and Seniors from the Engineering De partment of Ohio State University, at Columbus. recently visited all the large engineering plants in Cleveland. Each man was supplied with a printed schedule a feature of which was its minuteness of detail. The principal matters of interest at each shop, the hotels at which they would stop, the street cars leading to each place, and the time of arrival and departure in each case were given. Upon their return each man was re quired to filea written report of his trip. Chemistry Building Progressing The new chemistry extension, on which work is being carried on slowly, will be occupied by the sophomores and freshmen in their first year of work in chemistry. The building will have two floors and will be of frame construction. The first floor will contain two hundred and fifty laboratory desks and with the necessary ante rooms attached will be complete in every detail. The second floor will con sist of a large audience room which will accommodate five hundred peo ple, and of four small recitation rooms. It is fully expected that the building will be completed by next fall. The repair of the damages made by the recent fire has been practi cally completed. Honor to Whom Honor is Due. To the Editor-in-Chief 'of the "Collegian," My dear Mr. Editor: While I have no desire to be accused of what in slang phrase is known as "throwing bouquets," I do wish to see honor given to whom honor is due.

Cottrell, of the Department of History and Political Science, without whose constant aid and faithful work in their behalf, I greatly doubt if the team could have obtained that grasp on the vital points of municipal government which told so effectively in the final contest. Cordially yours, John H. Frizzell The Cornell Game. Ever since the defeat of "Lefty" Mcllveen's 'O6 nine at Cornell in a sixteen inning game by the score of 2to 1, and the victory of "Joe" Mason's 'O7 tea - n at Ithaca in seventeen innings by the score of 3 to 1, the college baseball world has looked forward to the outcome of this year's contest between the Cor nell and Penn State nines. When captain Cree's sturdy aggregation ran onto Percy field last Wednesday, it was greeted with the cheers of every Cornell undergraduate. The Ithacans had gathered in force to see their team win from the valiant wearers of the white and blue. But again Penn State proved the strength of her teams and added more laurels to her record, when she won again from Cornell by the score of 4 to 2. The scoring came about in this way. Cree, the first batter, was safe on Heilman's error at short stop. "Bull" McCleary sacrificed "Birdie" to second; Coulson fell a prey to Gable's deceptive curves, but Hirshman singled to left and the doughty little leader scored. State got one more in the fourth, when Coulson was hit by a pitched ball. "Heff" sacrificed him to second and Haverstick scored the big left fielder after Kelly had gone out from third to first. Again in the sixth the visitors tallied once. Mc- Cleary singled to middle, then Coulson and Hirshman were out, "Bull" advancing to second on "Buster's" sacrifice. Kelley made an opportune single to right and Mc- Cleary scored. The final run came in the ninth when Ferguson hit for three bases with one out. Cree scored on a slashing single to right. Cornell made her two runs in the fourth and eighth innings, which in dicates that State always held the lead. Coulson made a magnificent catch in the fourth inning of a fly ball which looked to be good for three bases, and Haverstick took in a hard drive, doubling up Caldwell at first and thus nipping in the bud Cornell's ninth inning rally. But the play which made the Ithacans lose all hopes occurred in the eighth inning when with three men on bases and two out Eberling smashed a liner to right field, where Ferguson took it in handily. Had the ball got away from the fielder or been hit ten feet further away from him, it would have cleared the bases and probably won a victory for Cornell. Too much credit for the game cannot be given to IVlitinger who
