KENTUCKIANS
PLAY HOT BALL
First Home Games of the
Season.
No team which comes to De-
Land has the popularity of that
representing the Kentucky Military Institute. The large num
ber of Kentuckians resident and
visiting are well disposed to the
boys from Kentucky, and their
conduct wins approval from every
one. The team, accompanied by
Col. Fowler, stayed at the College Arms while in DeLand. The
first game was called at 3 o'clock
Friday, with Hall in the box for
K. M. I. and Mickle for Stetson. The play was fast for an
early season game. In the third
inning K. M. I. scored twice.
Stetson was unable to score till
the sixth, when Campbell, after
stealing third, succeeded in
reaching home on an error by
Long. In the seventh, with second and third full, Barrett
spoiled Campbell's hit by a beau
tiful catch, and saved the game
for K. M. I. Errors were plenti
ful, and account for one score
each by K. M. I. and Stetson.
The individual record of the Stetson players is as follows :

Second Game.
At the first game the Stetson
students were evidently in an
apathetic mood, for no poorer
rooting was ever heard on the
field. The second day the students were united with the team
in a determination to win, and
gave enthusiastic voice to their
determination. Long went in
the box for K. M. I., and Hunter
pitched the first six innings for
Stetson, when he was relieved by
Mickle. The play of the Stetson
nine was much improved, and the
victory was deserved. Hunter's
work in the box was good and
steady. He was pitching better
ball when he left the box than
when the game began. Mickle's
work was better than in the first
game. The team is getting together, and one or two more
games will be sufficient to develop
one of Stetson's best teams, and
perhaps the strongest amateur
team in the State. The following
individual records were made in
the second game:

DEFENDERS OF
JUSTICE MEET
The Law Seniors Bestow
Honors.
Twice seven seniors, grand and
reverend, met the middle of last
month to form a more perfect
union, promote domestic tranquility, etc., as much as in them
lay. In other words, the Senior
Laws were met to organize the
illustrious class of '07.
All means that were necessary
and proper had already been used
to aid the various candidates to
office. The lines were finely
drawn ; so finely, indeed, that the
Dean felt constrained to caution
the class. This he did with few
words and great earnestness.
When he ceased speaking a great
hush fell on the multitude. The
Dean made his exit and still the
Laws were solemn.
Thus, in solemn conclave, the
convention began. Pattishall
nominated Campbell for temporary chairman. Without opposition J. Bowers was installed pro
tem.
The first real item of the day
was the election of a President,
who not only would endow the
class with respect, but also be
acceptable to the members
thereof.
Again Pattishall was on his
feet, his head back till his hair
was hid, his mouth open till one
could not see his face, discanting
all the while on the wonderful
virtues, great insight and loving
kindness of some impossible one.
Whom he could have had in mind
will never be known, for as an
