BASE BALL DEAD AT TECH
The Institute viii Have No Nine Upon the
Diamond This Year.

The directors of the Athletic Associa-
ton at the Worcester Polytechnic Insti-
tute have at last decided that there shall
be no ball team to represent the insti-
tute this year. For severakweeks past,
or since the subscription papers for
money to defray all athletic expenses,
have been circulated among the stu
dents, there has been talk to the effect
that it was extremely doubtful that
there would be Tech team this spring.
Not until Monday afternoon, however,
was it definitely decided to cross off base
ball from the schools athletic interests.
The team this year had elected Thos.
r. Saunders as captain, and was looking
forward to a larger measure of success
than a year ago, when the nine was far
from formidable against other college
teams of it's class. 1t is not believed by
the students, now base ball has been
dropped from the athletic curriculum,
that there will be a ball team at Tech
for several years.

little for the first and third acts, prefer
ring to trust those to the versatile talents
of his company. The second act, which
represents ticket brokers' office, is where
most of the play proper takes place, and II
most amuSingly traVesties what might be
the daily fortunes of busy ticket scalp
er. The other acts serve to introduce the
characters and to get rid of them, but SO
clever are the specialists who constitute
the company that these pass as brislzay
as does the more lively and important act.
Prominent among the comedians is
sherman Wade as the acrobatic office boy,
Chips. Mr.. Wade seemed to be given the
best lines and the most opportunities for
laughmaGing, all Of which he utilized He
also sang Joe Otis song, Alone" and
contributed his well-known eccentric dane

"Trip to Chinatown triumphs, made an
excellent record as a light comedian, and
further distinguished himself by some
clever dialect character limitations. His
bit as a returned Klondike miner also de-
serves mention.

ures in the production. She carried the
Lucia" seXtette, an operate number by
the way, which was weli rendered and
heartily applauded, and sang charmingly
a half-dozen other numbers, after one
of which she was honored with a hand
some bouquet. Miss Warren displayed a
brace of modish gowns, and her comedy
work was highly commendable

here, was natty stage typewriter girl

ter George Webb a 10-year-old boy, sang
ballads in a loud and high soprano, and
further displayed his talents in a harmon
