ing this are as follows: Hold but
one session per day, work ng hours
dur ng the cool hours and clos ng at
100 p. M; offer courses in tennis,
hockey and yolley ball IN the late
afternoon; teach the students games
and plays for them to use. when they

tainments with the phonograph; of
fer motion picture entertainments on

to-swin, and provide a suitable lake
for the men to use daily; have q
good table. furnish pure water. and
protect the bedrooms aga .nst mos

hold the expenses down. All these
things the State Normal School at

/ President Wilson's first caller to-
day was Senator Thomas of Colorado,
who discussed the Colorado cUal
strike situation. After his visit the
president and Secretary OF war Car
rison went into conference to de-
termine what should be done about
the request from Gov. Ammons for
Federal troops in the strike d strict.
Senator Thomas sa d ne bel eyed

After talking with Secretary Gar

from Chairman Foster of the house

Mr.. Foster said the interview had

Washington, April 29.-The scope
Of mediation plans for the settlement
Of the Mexican crisis suddenly was
broadened ton ght so as to include
the entire range of Mexican affairs
not alone the critical issue between
the United States and the Huerta re-
gime, but also the conflict between
the elements of Northern and South
ern Mexico, which have rent their res
public for many months.
This signal enlargement Of the
mediation program followed the re-

BASEBALL.

-
an inventive turn of mind conceived
the idea of printing a tabulated form
of baseball game, commonly called
box score, with an idea of curtal-
| ing his labor with an elaborate de-
scription of the game, and the dyed
lin-the-woo fans have been satisfied
ever since. At times we find the
idea very good one and follow n
the footsteps, but as it is our purpose
to give a description of the games,
we feel as If we would fail IN our
efforts were we to omit advising
you that the box score in the ST:
Paul-Chenet game should not be ac-
cepted as final insofar as the actual
AZ. Jpen.nss OF the game, for it IS
correct N showing the st. Paul col
iege won the game, but one would
aglnati0n to discern from this score
how close Chenet came to defeating
our boys, hence it you care to be
advised of what might have been,
read on, and you will learn chat n
the second inning the CnenGl ,ean
had two runners across the plate
and another perched on third, ana
still they failed to score ottlc a.ly
In this inning, Kenledy ,i1Est up,
grounded out from pitcher 10 first.
Hymel then laced a single to center,
and after Neville mad struck out he
moved to second Wnen Trestani was
pinked on the arm Dy Delcambre.
Sicard, catcher for the Chenets, then
laced out beauty to right ana Hy-
mel came home, and on wilu throw
of the rightfielder, Tristani, VINO had
rounded tn I'd continued on to the
plate, and S card was perched on
third. Here is where the box score
fails to inform you that Hymel, n
his anxiety to cross the pan, passed
within three feet of the third sack.
and it likewise fails to put you wise
to the fact that the umpire was
watching for just such an overt act,
with the result that Hymel was call
ed out for falling to touch the base,
hence two; runs that had crossed the
pan went for naught. What might
have happened following this bonl-
bardment we must let you draw from
Imagination.
Again n the last inning figures
show that this Chenet bunch Of bail
.tossers made three runs and three
hits, but it fails Ito inform you that.

it is small wonder Hymef was called

consisted Of Messrs. Harvey E. Ellis,

The boat was in charge Of Messrs.
