While the boys were putting the
shot Friday noon, j. Earl Ludwick
was struck on the right shoulder with
the 10 pound ball as 1t was thrown
rapidly through the air. No blame
Is attached upon anyone as the young
gentleman who threw the shot, lost
control Of 1t which took an unexpected
direction in falling to the ground.
However, Mr.. Lundwick was not hurt
in the least, which is considered quite
fortunate.
1t Is the earnest desire Of the Ath-
letic Association Of the o. A. G. TO
send a sufficient number Of athletes
to the field meet at Salem, June 9Th,
TO enable them to contest in all the |
events on the program. This will be
necessary in order TO carry off the
Intercollegiate cup. How to raise !
funds to defray the expenses Of large
team, has been the troublesome ques- |
tion for some time; for no money is
appropriated for the encouragement |
of athletic sports at the college. Not
wishing TO ask aid by private sub
scrlbtion, II was finally decided to
give an entertainment; one that |
would be credit to the association,
and give those who attended the per-
formance the full worth of their
money. This entertainment will con-
slst of an Introductory program Of
musical and athletic nature, to last |
about forty-hve minutes, to be fol-
lowed by the one act farce-comedy, |
LEND Me Five Shlllings, making an !
entertainment OF about two hours. |
The humOr OF this celebrated farce
results from the inability of the gen.
tleman TO borrow the inconsiderable |
sum OF five shillings-a dilemma not |
wholly improbable, The best dra-
matte skill has been exercised in con-
trlving the plot and adjusting the
incidents. The play has long been
fayorlte In the repertoire OF Mr.. Jo-
seph Jefferson, and wherever given,
either by professionals or amateurs,
has proved very acceptable. The
best available talent has been secured
to assist in the production of this ex-
cellent after-piece. May % is the
date set for the entertainment.
The weather for the past month has
been decidedly discouraging to our ath-
letlcs who have been wishing for at
least a week of nice weather before
field day events, in which they might
enjoy the use Of the campus in train
