Work on the Diamond.
Dramatic Club at BeIfast...MusicaI
Clubs at Oakland.

Considerable interest is being taken
in the inter-class track meet to be
held March 26. There is some question
as yet in regard to the place. Inc
Coliseum is the best place for such
meet, but it is not definitely decided
whether it may be obtained. In case
the Coliseum is not obtained the
spirits and runs will be held on the
out door board track in the afternoon
and the shot put and pole vault VIII
be tried in the gymnasium. Coach
Thompson has divided the men INTO
divisions. having those for the several
events come at different times so that
TO each squad he can give his per-
sonal attention The entries are not
as vet posted but in few days the
men for the different events will be
listed. and all the events run off except
the discus.
The Musical Clubs gave concert
last evening in the Memorial hall in
Oakland, under the auspices of the
Unity Club of the Universalist
church. Every available seat in the
hall was filed, the boys being called
back again and again. After the con-
cert dance was given in the Mes
salonskee hall, music by Pullen's Or
chestra.
Pres Roberts was in Augusta yes
terday on business.
The baseball squad is being rapidly
worked into shape. since Coach Nc
Graw divided the men into squads
working each out at different hours.
If the warm weather holds for a week
longer it will be possible to do some
work in the field. The diamond is al
ready free from snow and the water
is rapidly draining off. There is no
question but the team will get on &he
field this year earlier than it has for
many seasons past.
The Dramatic Club gave it's second
exhibition in the Town hall in Belfast
last evening. The audience was an
appreciative one and the boys were
highly complimented on the drama
that they presented.
A very interesting booklet has just
been issued by the class of 1898. 1t
is a report of the doings of the class
since it graduated and contains about
so or go pages of very interesting his
tory and statistics. The work was in
charge of committee chosen from the
class and they are to be congratulated
for their excellent work. This COM
mittee consisted of Frederick G.
Getchell Frank w. Allen and Mary
c. Evans.
The first section of the book con-
tains the biOgraphs of the members of
the class during their college course
and since graduation and the accounts
show that the class has in every way
been living up to the college reputa-
ton. Next comes department by
the way of Statistics showing the
numbers that graduated. married, and
the numbers that have entered the
different professions
The last department called the Mail
Box" contains a most interesting col
lection of letters from members of
the class. The college congratulates
the Glass of '9S for the good work as is
shown by the various statistics and it
is hoped that the example of this class
in publishing a class history will be
soon followed by the other classes that
have been out of college for some time.

by the Y. w. c. A. of the college in
the First Baptist church at 430 P. NJ.
