TOURNAMENT ENDED WITH FLOURISH. Miss Louise Hulley Again Champion Among Stetson Co-eds. The Young Ladies' Tennis Tournament has been followed by the student body with a great deal of interest. The splendid playing I of those who participated in the ^semi-finals, and the close work of vliss Hulley and Miss Turnquist Jin the finals, drew such a large :rowd of interested spectators that the University was inspired to erect some abbreviated grand-stands for the convenience of future onlookers. Miss Hulley having defeated all opponents is undisputed champion among the fair sex. Such brilliant players as the Misses Ashley Cawthorne, Delta Haynes, Elsie Hamm, Wiletta Elliott, and Evelyn Turnquist succumbed in order before her smooth playing and accurate service. Miss Hamm fought stubbornly till the last stroke and won great applause by her splendid return strokes which Miss Hulley was unable to return. The final matches between the Misses Turnquist and Hulley was also most exciting. The sets went 6-2, 6-3, 6-0, to Miss Hulley and with them the Intra-Collegiate Young Ladies' Tennis Singles Championship. A great deal of credit is due to Miss Nina Phillips for the way in which she has conducted this entire tournament and also for her efforts in starting the Mixed doubles Tournament which is, at )resent, engaging the attention of almost everyone. o THE 1914 OSHIHIYI.

The 1914 Oshihiyi will soon be off the press and in the hands of the students. This year's effort is a thing of beauty and contains many new features, chief L among which are the size and ' shape. The contents are also rated above "par" by those who know. The price is two dollars and is well worth it. The members of the Senior and Junior College classes together with several free lancas will sell the annuals. Interfraternity baseball made its debut at Stetson University this week when the Sigs and Phi Kaps met on the diamond. The first contest was called at 3:30 Monday afternoon, with Messrs. Swink and Willard as umpires. The Greeks put up a wonderful exhibition of the national sport. The Sigs went to bat first and punished Hale rather severely, by shoving eleven men before him as an opening remark. The boys on the corner started to rebut very nobly when Farris and Hodgden both reached first. The score for the first inning, however, stood 5 to 1 in favor of the Sigs, and the most Herculean of efforts failed to cut down this lead thruout the remainder of the game. The Kaps blanked the Sigs in the second, and proceeded to annex a tally for themselves. This really would have worked wonders, had not Ike Tribble thrown cold water on the whole scheme by dextrously entwining his Hebraic limbs about Beatty who tried to receive a high fly from the bat of the mighty Wideman, the elder. This bit of comedy by Izzy cost the Phi Kaps four runs. In the eighth, with a lead of 12—2, the Sigma Nus hauled Skeet Thomas, Funey Steed, Tom Jackson, and Little Squee Wideman out upon the field. This vile joke enraged Phi Kappa Delta, so that they sent in Smith, he of the automobile, and they took five more runs before the close of the game. Further features of the game were Gautier's awful batting eye, Merritt's timely bingles, and Prof. Mickle's hard drives to deep center. Sigma Nu. A.B R. H. E.

Errors were few, and the general work of both teams was not quite so painful to the onlookers as the first game. The first inning passed without scores. In the second, the Sigs, led by Fisher, and ably assisted by Pink and Dingbat, annexed two runs, which proved a lead too great for the Phi Kaps to overcome, who remained scoreless until the sixth when a hit and an error scored Farriss. The only other run for the Kaps came in the eighth, when Farriss courted the bases on an error. The Sigs scored in the fourth owing to Bo-peep's bingle, and in the fifth, the same young man scored Goat by a timely drive which was assisted by an error on the part of George Selden, onetime student here at Stetson. The Sigs, led by the great Squirrels, also took two more in the eighth, making a final score of 6-2. We append the box scores which are instructive. Sigma Nu. A.B. R. H. E.

To some the b< sion brings no deep thoughts, nor are we stirred up by the beauty and grandeaurof this celebration, but to many it is an i full of meaning and it is these who weave aboul us the delicate fibre of their own rejoicing. The Angels (Ihorus was the firsl intimation we had ot the birth of the New Easter day. A choir composed ol" many Chaudoin girls and several town ^irls sang the chorus about the Campus, and at breakfast marched in pi about the dining room sin the same. By all this was found a beautifully impressive method of starting the day. Mrs. Dohm at breakfasl erved us eggs, in the famous old of our childhood dayt , These col- ored "Bunny Eggs" were in great quantities on every table and seized upon in the same spirit in which the children hunt in the grass for them. All the churches of I >eLand had pecial I. and mi and the attendance by stud was of course unusually lap The Ea ■< i \'< • < i Service, the last of i he ea on, wa well attended and was of a peculiarly interesting nature.
