 SokOls 9-Senecas
 The Sokols had no trouble in beat ing the Senecas. Massey's pitching for the losers was much better than the score would indicate and pre- vented the game from being a walk away.
 The winners chased three runs across the pan in the first three in nings to give them a lead which they never lost.
 In order to save Stanley Partyka for Sundays game the Sokol man. agement gave Adam Sullick a chance
 Adam allowed the losers four hits, two of these coming in the second inning when they scored their run. In the meantime he was flaming nine batters and causing most of the others to pass out on easy flies or grounders.
 Sullick's pitching was so effective that the losers never threatened to rally or take the lead. On the other hand. Massey was hurling good game, but was opposed by much stronger hitters and backed by less substantial support.

 The Sokols are now leading th2 league. They meet the Holy Cross team next week while the Pirates battle the Burritts. The Pirates and Burrtts still have a tie game to play off in the league. This may make a pile of difference in the standing.

STUDENTS PASS BY
 CHARWOMEN'S BALL
Harvard Event for SCrubWoIn- en'S Benefit Turns Out Failure

Cambridge, Mass, May Is tUP) A dance which had been dubbed the Fete of the Mop had failed today to materially swell the fund being raised for the benefit of liar ward colleges discharged charWom en.
 Twenty scrubuomen lost their jobs several months ago when uni versity authorities refused to com- ply with ruling by the Massach setts minimum wage commission that the cleaners should be paid 57 instead of 35 cents an hour.
 A group of Harvard undergra du- ates decided that the scrubwomen should be paid back wages alleged ly due them. and a drive for funds was launched.
 As the crowning achievement Of this campaign, "scrubUomen s ball" was arranged for last night. A sandwich man assisted in adver- Using the event and a big crowd was looked for.
 An hour and a quarter after the doors of Brattle hall were opened. the only persons who had appeared were the ticket-taker and Mrs. An- nie Mcintyre and Mrs. Mary Hogan. former Harvard scrubwomen who had been engaged as chaperons. Finally two young women appear ed and Edward B. Ginsburg, ticket taker, danced with them in turn. l Thi. attracted the attention Of pass ersby. and at 10:So p. m. there were nearly on couples in the hall.

 To Change Name of Their College

Mlddletown, May IS P-Students of Wesleyan university are opposed to change of name of their Alma Mater, a student survey just made shows. as only S4 out of 505 voted Nes. The proposal for a change of
 name was due in part to the fact that there are two other institutions in which Wesleyan" is part of
 the title.
 The survey results were made known today by D. C. Mills, chair
 man Of the student committee in charge, and these cover also athle-
 ties and publicity.
 On the change of name question, halt of those who favored it sug-
 gested the name of "Olin"; II Win chester" "Old Wesleyan" and
 f "Andru."

 For the next three Bowdoln had 23S votes, Trinity 160 and Hamilton 114. For the next five places the range
 in vote was from Ss 10 76 for Yale, Connecticut Aggies, Brown, Haver- ford and Union.
 TO the question Of little ten,'
 favored for athletic relations, to be
 composed of Union Hamilton, Ho- hart, Haverford, Bowdoin, Middle hury, Trinity. Amherst, Williams
 and Wesleyan, 52o said yes and l74 "no."
 There was but slight difference of opinion on the present eligibility of
 students in sports 493 regarding
 the present system as satisfactory. l Only slight difference were noted on seven suggestions 10 improve i athletic teams, better coaching"
 and better equipment taking first and second places
 The present .1o athletic tax was ! regarded as fairly satisfact ctory. The matter of publicity for the univer- 1 sity was handled through several l questions and ss per cent said they
