with the need of selecting for the
eleven boys who are interested in the
success of the team and qualified to
play The speaker showed he is keen
ly interested in sports and believes
that athletics do much to make good
scholars. Professor Scott's remarks
were enthusiastically received.

urged players to go into win every
game and TO fight as hard for first
place in the gridiron as they do in
the class room. Mr.. Dunlap declared
it is necessary to have a large squad

up of the eleven and that merit would
be the sole qualification in filling the
places.
Robert Weir. manager of the team
also spoke, endorsing the views ex

from the box in three innings. The
battering Matty received was all the

McGraw had pinned his hopes on him

amples of his work, and all of which
are the property of the society, will

fine canvases by Howard Pyle stu
dents also will be exhibited.

bition week will be Children's Day

tage of viewing the canvases on

will take place on November 2, and
for that night alone the exhibition
will not be open to the general pub
lie. It has become a custom to open

vate view for which as a rule invi-
tations are generally issued.
