The game .was slow, but considering tlie practice that the two teams had it was a fair ex- bibition of baseball and as the gauies continue it is sure to progress. What 18 Considered to be a record for any organized team was created in this game, il was the fact Dial the first baseman of the Senators tailed to make a piilmil or an assist. •__j£he gam- did nol tarl (ill _ p. ni. on account of the Mud Hens practicing until Dial lime. The!batteries were announced, for the Reds, Hil:;i>y pitching ami Jfennings catching. For the Senators, Culp pitching and Buck catching. The umpires were, at the plate, McQuillan, and on the bases, Stewart. The Senators look the ins, lull failed to do anything. But not so with the Reds, dthey promptly goi their heavy artillery to going and scored two runs. This looked mighty good with the way Silsby was breezing them across bul the Red_ were on a rampage and didn't ask any advice. Tatum. maiKKV'T of the Reds, was the leading hitter of the fray with four clean hits. The longest hi| of the j afternoon was Layton's home run to tlir\ centerfield wall. The Senators ! an i-v i !■ ! ■ .'i ragg d support. ; Silsby . was the surprise of the aft-. ernoon with his fine brand of burl-j ing.' Sjlshy struck out 10 men. Callahan was the star of the losing Senators ii was his hit that enabled bis team to score their only tallies, It was a single with two men on. Line-Up Large Number of Guests Visit Fraternity at Its Reception Everyone seemed lo go early in order to avoid the rush at tho Alpha. Xi Delta open house Friday night, and as a result the rush started early and lasted late. It was a glorious affair from start to finish. Tho girls or Alpha Xi Delta proved to be wonderful hostesses. The parlors of the house were crowded with happy peoplo froty eight until ten, when the ..last of the. happy throng left the beautifully decorated home used for the Alpha Xi Delta house parly this year. All during the ' ovenlug tho girls of Alpha Xi Delta 'moved in and out among the many guests welcoming them and serving delicious ice cream and cake with the Greek letters for Alpha Xi Delta on them in white icing. Attractive little bouquets wCto presented to every guest who called during the evening. Chet Freeman, Kay Anson, and Loomis Slater furnished music on tho piano, banjo, and viollt.. The Collegiate, which is reaching you every week, is exceedingly anxious to serve you in every way possible. It wants you to know the facts about Stetson University- For that reason wc are going to establish a new department in the paper— an information bureau for Florida seniors and their friends. Wc would appreciate any communications addressed to the editor of The Stetson Collegiate, DeLand, Florida, relative to any question about the school. These questions will not be answered directly but through the columns of the Collegiate in order that other seniors of the state may get the benefit of the information, although any questions which may require personal answers will be gladly answered. Wc are also going to run a column of news from the various high schools of the state. Watch these two columns each week and find what is happening in other schools of Florida. Don't forget to have the Collegiate put on the mailing list of your high school paper. It is through the various publications that we find out what is happening in the oilier schools.

By CHARLES TRIBBLE Business Manager of Oshihiyi We started our campaign for advertising: for the Oshihiyi Monday. We to ."isi, | . til ;.' !_ •; i c:i:..,; ;., | and we are sure of great success, because, students, tho town is behind us heart and soul. They havo proved that all this year. All of the leading business men, to whom I havo talked, assure me of the support of tho De- Land men. Tr.cy arc as interested in our student activities, I dare say, as we ourselves are; and they will and have supported them in a noble fashion. We have the widest circulation of any annual yet. It will go to all of our prospective students. They will read it, and come here feeling <as if the town and college is one solid organization. The students have the good will of the town, and the town surely has the good will of the student body. We were very well pleased with tlie success of our subscription campaign. The number to subscribe outnumbered that of our highest hopes. The campaign has closed, but all those who wish to get copies reserved can do so if they do it now. Wednesday is the last day which we will take orders. After that you will have to gamble on getting a copy that no one called foi;. No extras} will be printed. We win guarantee that those who receive copies of our annual will never regrpt it. The engravers have written us and complimented our workers on their clever ideas and the artistic way in which our pictures were arranged and grouped. They made, us promise to scud them an annual. Do you know that your sweetheart's picture is i nthis book? Do you know that your picture is iu the Oshihiyi too? Well, it may flbi'e too lafo for you unlucky guys to get cue, but you will I)'- able to look on someone else's. We have pollen very nearly as many out of I own orders as we have home orders. That speaks "well. ANNUAL PHI BANQUET IS HELD Putnam Inn is Scene of .Gathering of Members of Law Fraternity Phi Delta Delta'fraternity met Friday night at the Putnam Inn for its annual banquet. Tho banquet table was beautifully decorated in the colors ot tho fraternity—pink and lavender. There were pink roses in tho center of tho talblc, and pink aud lavender baskets with a tiny little rose tied to each, these were filled with pink aud lavender candies and salted almonds. Tied to each basket was also a place card. Mrs. Hulley and Mrs. Brown, who Perry McCampbell, i.bai sweet little first, sacker, ban noj made bis appearance on the diamond us yet. though he was scheduled lo piny first for Tribbles aggregation. It is a pleasure to watch Ilaisj boy perform have recently been made, patronesses I with agility Mid easy grace. P< rry Like our "Wonder Team," tho Baseball team also has' tho Four Horsemen—TribbleL S^dge Tatum, Don Geiger and Judge Wiugfiold compose it. Quarterback Buck must have had th. dropsy in the game between Goiger'a team and Bo.o Tribblo's outfit. Buck has the willingness to catch, but his one trouble is the fact that he does not stick fo one position. Buck is by right a catcher and the longer, he stays at this, position the more he will improve.

The latest addition to the Stetson campus religious orgauizations held a rousing meeting over the library Monday night of last week and after much discussion it was decided to call tho club the "Christian Forum." This name was selected principally because it carries with it the idea of a placo where students can gather and discuss religious matters on a friendly and instructive basis. Dr. Garwood led an interesting discussion ou Paul's "Joy Chapter," Phillippians IV. He emphasized thai happiness should' be the properly of all true "Followers of the Way." The strongest assertion found in this chapter seemed lo be, "I can do ail things through Christ who streng- thcnclh jiic." The speaker also emphasized the poor spirituality of "Market Basket Christians" who come to God seeking everylbing and bringing nothing. Every student, will profit by attending these meetings which will be held directly after supper each Monday evening. Seniors of Florida reading thia col- struck out. Tribble's team had no troublo in defeating! Goiger's' nine last week, although itMookcd for a while that. Gelgor's team would rally, because of h number of errors in the sixth In nlug. Bald.'s triple, with two men on proved to bo tho wiuning factor of the game. Henderson's pitching and Gclger's all-around work, were tho main lights for tho losing team. Henderson struck out 13 men In the olx innings, Tribble's fielding of infield taps was above par. Judge Wlngfkld played a good gamo at short .xcept for a low throw in the sixth inning. Stewart surprised tho few fans that witnessed the gamo iu bis ability to play the first sack. The Lineup.. (Tribble) Bailey 3b .._ Tribble p p Buck c _ Wingfield s_ ' Runyon 2b __ ,.

Henderson, the Celery Fed boy, was sure breezing them across and succeeded in sending 13 back to the bench by the strike out route. The managers of the different tca.ms aro going to get their heads together this week. The purpose of this gathering is lo trade -players. There are rumors in the air that Tribble is in need of a hard hitting outfiolder and a relief pitcher.

' :vii_._ The tongues will have much to wag about soon, for iu a few days" tho whole town will be talking" about that now comedy flint tho Groen Room Players are putting on. There is .omething more than now and refreshing about the comedy in threw actB which is the hale and hearty aort, built to give play to the extensive abilities of the director, Irvine C. Stover. It is cleverly planned c»o that it pleases, delights, and entertains all of tho six senses, especially tho Blxtt—tho souse of seeing. Thero is a laugh In every caption, al_o a chuckle in most of tho literationa. In ndditipn to tho comedy, ihoro is a real plot with suspense, climax, and lovo intorcst. The directional powers of Mr. Stover show in tho contrast of high and low lighlc. The characters aro well chosen. Mr. Simmons, playod by Ed Henderson, puts Lis foot in It when ho realizes ...hat "tho wholo town is talking" and much talk Is centered around a motion picture star, Letty Luthe, playod by Laurlim Goffin, who haa boon dragged into th'i Whirl pool of gossip in Mr. f31mnum« unsuccessful attempt to tie the hoods of matrimony about his partner and hlu beautiful and amusing young daughter Ethel, played by Rutl.

Juat picture the endless complications and trials of a pitiless situation and just guess what the whole towu is talking about—then you have a characterlzatlou of tho next play to be given hero. When you go, aud go you must, the first 10 minutes are the hardeat to get past, but after all, it is' all to th J good with real comics, natural and hugely cujoyable, not much plot or anything, this fact leaving the t dionce with nothing to do Ibuf eJ joy tho fun.
