The incorporators of the Theatr,

The intention of the new company
is TO build new theatre, at Morgan.
town. This will not be done this
year, but preparations will be made
and plans prepared for the erection OF
fine new building next year.
The charter for the company gives
1t the privilege of buying real estate,
erecting theatre and business build.
iugs, leasing and managing theatres
or play houses in Morgantown and
elsewhere. 1t is very liberal in the
scope Of activity allowed.
The company is negotiating for the
lease and management Of opera houses
outside this city, but nothing is ma.
tured far enough. to be given out at this
time.
The demand for better play house
in Morgantown is urgent, and the en-
terprise Of any company that will as
sumo the responsibility of erecting it
will receive great encouragement. The
present house, while accommodating
the crowds that attend ON ordinary
occasions, is found too small on extra
ordinary occasions. Beside the GER
tainty Of the town out-growing this
building, it is extremely unsafe in
case of fire, ON account Of the narrow
and crooked passages to the entrance.
A move to build safer and more
commodous theatre ought to receive
hearty and united support.

GET MORE ROOM.
School of Music Given additional
Facilities for Work.

There is rejoicing in the School OF
Music over the decision recently
made to give the entire upper floor
of WOODBURY. Hall to that depart.
ment. The accommodations at pres
ent in the north wing of the hall are
entirely inadequate for the demands
of the department and the increase
of scholars has been so rapid this
past year that it would be impossi-
BILE to find places for all the teachers
and students another year, with the
still further increase that is natural
ly to be expected.
A doorway will be CIT from the
north wing into the main building
and the carpenters commenced to
put in the partitions today. The
present large room, which is the old
Commencement Hall, now occupied
by the commercial department will be
divided into three parts, two rooms
and recital hall, which will &C
commodate about $50 people. This
is much needed necessity, Tor pupils
and faculty recitals, all of which
until now, had been held in Com
mencement Hail. which is too large
for ordinary circumstances.
Dean Wrightson hopes to raise
So, 500 for small pipe organ for this
hall, which will be needed for les
sons and practice Here is a good
chance for some generous citizen to
do something that will be benefit
to the School of Music and which
will be appreciated by many who
need these advantages for proper
study.
Dean Wrightson's studio and
office will be moved to the main
building at the head of the main
staircase and there will be a general
moving when the improvements are
completed. which it is hoped will be
before the summer term.
This is only a stepping stone to
the eventual end in view for this
important department of the leading
educational institution of the state,
viz, separate building, a temple of
music second to none in the country.
1t is interesting to know that these
temporary changes and improve
ments are paid for out of the School
of Music fund, the department hav-
ing more than paid expenses this
past year, with a faculty double In
number in any previous year to be
paid salaries. s

The Varsity got licked on Satur

was not unexpected as far as losins
the game is concerned but it wal

Speaking of the game of Frida,
the Baltimore News has the follow
ing:
"The fair sized crowd which ;our
neyed out to the Maryland Ova

one of the fastest and most interest
ing games Of baseball PLAYED at the
Oval this season. The Maryland
Athletic Club team lined up against
the strong University of West vir-
GINA team and won the game, s tc

and many brilliant plays were made
by the players of both teams, nota
bly, one handed stop back of sec.
ond base by Purinton, who covered
the second bag for the visitors, after
Shortstnp Kennoy had missed the
bail The .playing of Groninger al
third base for the visitors was also
a feature of the game
The game was a nip and-tuck
affair up to the ninth inning, and
not until the last man was out was
the game clinched by NJ. A. c.
Smith, who twirled for the Univer-
sity team, experienced difficulty in
locating the plate, giving eigh,
bases on balls"
The boys do not have a game to
day. They are in New York and
will play Manhattan tomorrow.
Yale will be met the next day. They
will come home to play Grove City
here on Saturday.
A game was advertised for this
place on Saturday but those who
paid were almost the victims of a
hold up. Bowman did not pitch
because of the kicking of the visi
tors and Bull Smith could not be
here.
Fairmont was never in the game
and was defeated by a disgracetully
big score. There was fairly good
crowd up 10 see the game. The
score was Ii to 4.
