WASHINGTON AND LEE
TOINV4ADE THE SOUTH
Team in Excellent Condition for Trip to NORTH
Carolina Georgia and Alabama Great
Things Expected of Efird and Moran

Lexington, Va, May with the
last two games played on tho home
grounds before the squad left on
the Southern trip. Coach kcnnop
has had Washington and Lees fast
| aggregation of ball-tossers hard at
work this week. Several practice
games have been played and the
Varsity appears In great shape for the
invasion of the South.
After their great work against the
strong V. p J.. team last Friday and
Saturday, Jap Efird and Harry Moran,
the crack slabmen, should prove their
superiority over any pitcher In the
South. Efird allowed only twenty
eight Tech batsmen to face him in
nine innings. and on the following
day only thirty-five got to the bat
against Moran in eleven innings No
team has gotten over five or six hits
off either OF these men this season.
They are both youngsters. and bid fair
to make the greatest college pitchers
in the country. Jap Efird is a we'll
built fellow. above the average height,
with good speed and fslr control. The
tall. wiry Moran has a delivery that
puzzles every batter that faces him,
and for portwheeler his control is
remarkable. He Is also a good hitter.
Bill Gwathmey has only pitched one
game this season, but he has always
made an excellent showing on the
trips. Paroles has never gotten him
self into first-class condition.
Wat Efird and Rectcnwald give
these twirlers two of the classiest
backstops in college ball. Efird has
caught ten games, practically without
an error, and has had very few bases
stolen on him. Rectenwald has caught
only one. game, but his work is in
high order. He is covering lots OF
ground in left garden and is hitting
the ball hard.
For the past three weeks the Varsity
has been going at a great stride and
the infield has played gilt-edgcd ball.
Their work against tho crack Carolina
nine. fresh from the victories over
Virginia and Georgetown, was perfect,
and when they registered the sue

cesstve shutouts against the strong
Tech team the fielding was practically
crrorless. In fact, the fielding OF the
fast infeld has been clean and classy
ever since the slump. when Swarth-
more defeated the White and Blue.
Captain Stras has gotten his in
jured arm into shape and his work
at the first cushion gets better every
day. The big fellow is also getting
his eye on the ball. and Is a clever
base runner, usually coming off with
couple OF stolen sacks for each
game. Smith plays brilliant game at
second. and Erwin shows better form
at short every day. The Andover boy

The Lesser Man
By ADA PATTERSON.

Tho husband of popular author

TO a house apart giving the reason
that his wifo doesn't need his aid nor

first independent step he had taken

TO the brotherhood of inferior hus-
bands. 1t Is a contemplate position,
and every Worthwhile man rebels
against 1t. A sturdy male hates him

soul to know that he Is not the man
of the house, only the man about the
house.
TO be the unknown husband Of a
rank in life. Perhaps the pair started
equally, as did this severed twain In
England, but the wife outran the hus-
band.
Ii requires great love on the hus-
bands part to endure this state. Dau-
Diet pictures poignantly the gradual
deterioration of man under these
circumstances in Artists Wives" The
pair are singers. They start neck and
neck IN the race IOr lOHoIS. 1lSy are
deeply In love. The companionship is
ideal until the public takes more
warmly to itI bosom the wife than
the husband. She Is happy In the
applause of her audiences until she
sees that her husband grows pale at
the sound. One night she hears an
ominous sound in the audience--a scr
pent sound-thnt makes her heart stop
beating. It develops into loud hiss
ing, the mercenary Kissing Of the hired
claque. She turns eyes OF anguished
appeal upon her husband and sees that
in his look which breaks her heart.
II Is he who has hired the claque
whose Kissing is putting her reputa-
5ticn as an artist to death.
This is the situation of the superior
wife and the inferior husband reduced
to It's worst extremity. There Is the
other extreme in which neither or only
one Is conscious of the difference Of
mental grade and achievement. There
are intermediate grades involving con-
seriousness more or less acute OF this
difference, and the friction that fol-
lows depends upon the greatness OF tho
love of the lesser for the greater.
There Is one cure only for this re-
sversal of nature. Don't marry the
superior woman. Or, If she be your
superior, grant 1t only on spiritual
grounds. A man shouldn't run away

Man is an animal that needs amuse
