Again in the second an error a nit
and a sacrifice scored another and the
score stood tied until the Giants made
it to 2 in the next chapter. In the
fourth, however, Gibson dropped a
third strike and though the next two
men went down, Wolfe advanced A.
Olsen to third with a hit. Barrow
then came across with the needed hit
which tied the score and Bell secured
his second two Dagger bringing in the
winning run. E. Hoffman should have
gotten Barrows fly but he had a hard
chance and did not. Lewis pitched
his usual fine game and with the
proper support would have won easily
as most of the hits he allowed came
after errors by his teammates Seek
niger also deserved better support.

Ak-Sar Bens Den will be equipped with
a commodious foyer and separate dressing
rooms for the men and women guests by

from c. H. Pickens, president of the board
Of governors. Mr.. Pickens explained that
the board of governors has planned a com
plete refinishing of the den, including a new
.'oof, new floor and new walls.
1t was found in past seasons that much
difficulty arose through the lack OF dress
ing rooms and a foyer in the building. On
large occasions, such as the annual ball,
the guests were compelled TO wait in a
line outside the door of the building while
they sought for their admission tickets
and the women guests in their evening
gowns suffered much discomfort through
being kept in this manner on the outside,
The foyer will be constructed in the
southeast corner of the building and will
be Of large proportions. 1t will also be a
great help on initiation nights.
