HENDRIX SENIORS
 10 PLAY FACULTY TO BE DECISIVE BATTLE
NEAR GRADS TO CROSS BATS WITH TUTORS ON HENDRIX
 PARK MONDAY.

For the purpose of showing up' the sedate faculty of Hendrix College, and incidentally to raise a few sheckles to add to the inexhaustible fund with which a memorial will be erected by the class, the naughty young men of Hendrix, known to the lower classmen as seniors, have agreed to tie up with that noble body of men possessed with worlds of gray matter on the baseball diamond Mon- day afternoon, April 6, at 2 o'clock. According to Business Manager Steel of the senior class, it is with much re- luctance that his team agrees to meet the faculty on the ball ground, as it will be shame the way he and his colleagues will eat them up. Never theless, as the memorial fund is to be fattened oh account of the fracas, the contract has been signed.
 Both teams have been out every night for the past three weeks warm ing up, it is said, and neither side is willing to concede defeat. On the oth- CT hand, every member of the senior class has already admitted his team will win.
 The faculty will probably lineup thusly: Pewee Parker, catcher; Bill Headrick, pitcher; Hubby Wilson, first base; Tommy Staples, second base; Blondy Russell, third base {; Baldy Simmons, short stop; Proxy Reynolds, left field; P. Winfrey, cen ter field; Charlie Greene, right field {; Midget Burr, Johnnie McClurkin and Jo McHenry, substitutes.
 The probable lineup for the seniors follows: Jim Harrison, catcher; Spec Hughes, pitcher; Charley Moore, first base; Roy Farr, second base; Pur- kins, third base; Snug Steel, short stop; Doug McSwain, left field; Pillie Clayton, center field; Bill Black, right field; Paul Millar and Ruth Bruton, substitutes.
 Peanuts, pop corn, chewing gum and candy will be vended by Misses Lutie Stevenson and Mabel Irvine. Misses Faye Canada and Maud At kins will be in charge of the gate.
 All who have any sporting blood in their veins are requested to prove the fact by coming out to the game, to which an admission fee of Is cents will be charged.

IMPRESSIONS AT ST. LOUIS.

Conway must know that in chang ing from the Missouri State to the International that it was not because of any fault with Missouri State Both MT. Nelson, the president, and MT. Hoydt, the vice president, of iMs- souri State Life were great to me Especially did MT. Hoydt, the former president of Hartford Life, take a personal interest in me. Though l realized the promotion, it was not un- til after thorough investigation that l made the change.
 I went direct to the home office of International, where found them oc. cupying their own sixteen-story build ing, located in an ideal portion of the city, the building being known as "In- ternational Building" I met person ally the leading officials and each seemed to take personal interest in me. I found the president, Mir. Will son, to have the very image of an ex- ecutive business man. He was large and sent forth a radiant smile that made one feel good to be in his pres ence. He was sociable, but every move showed that he was a man of executive ability. The agency man. ager, secretary, medical director and other officials as well as others, treat ed me royalty, and to see the great mass of office force and their great enthusiasm for their company i'm pressed me very much.
 The the vice president, MT. Babler and l spent day together at Hot Springs. 1 don't think I have ever met any man who has impressed me more than MT. Babler. He is the very essence of ability, and his repu- tation in the insurance world, which I knew before meeting him, and his sociability, his personality, the great interest for the field man which he showed in his conversation clarified even more, the reason Of the great progress of the International, and for the great enthusiasm in California and other western states as well as northern and central, and made me want to revive the old enthusiasm which it had in Arkansas under the able leadership of Dr. Conger before he resigned to become president of Central College.
 Another thing that impressed me was the interest shown concerning this state. Time and again MT. Bab. Ter paid glowing tributes to it's great prospects and expressed a desire to help make it greater. He became pc culiarly interested in Conway, anC asked all about the various schools that had caused Conway to be so vel known as an educational center. Thu. because of the personal interest, the great opportunity. offers me and be cause of the promotion are reasons why I made the change, and not be cause of any fault with the othel company. R. l..
