Miss Edith Buck of Palatka after five months in shorthand department, won the Remington gold medal for speed and efficiency in typewriting. This is the first time that a Stetson student has been thus honored. o EXAMS ARE OVER. PHI BETA PSI HAS ANNUAL BANQUET The fast team from Cuba which has been traveling thru the State j ing the big league teams which are wintering here, played our faseball nine last Saturday afternoon. The Reds had no trouble in smothering the college men by a rather large score of 9—0. The game was slow and uninteresting thraout. Stetson could fad but four hits, although the ball was slammed to all parts of the field. The splendid fielding of the Cubans robbed us of several bases. Gross fanned five of the Reds, but yielded eleven hits, which coupled with the inevitable errors, were enough to pile up nine tallies. In the third inning we had a chance to score when Beaulieu took first on an error, Bradley angled and Gardiner walked. The sacks were full but there was one down but | and Kanner rolled to the pitcher. Jimmy was wild in the first inning, walking two men and hitting a third. This was followed f by a hit and an error and three rams came across. After this Gross ! settled down and retired the next three men in order. The fourth inning was a bad one for him when five hits were gathered from his delivery. Beyond these two lapses of form our star went good even though against a team that has defeated the Phillies and the Superbas.

The team, we have been informed, was picked soon after Christmas. This does not smack of good business at all and is really unfair to Stetson. However, the debate is the chief thing and we can afford to forego any objection in order that the movement of intercollegiate debating which had its inception last year may be continued. The team which will represent Stetson will be chosen from the best two debators, who will speak in the Inter Society Debate next Friday evening. Three men from the Kent Club and three from the Varsity will be contestants for the honor of representing Stetson.

The game with the Cuban Reds will probably be the last in this j year's schedule. Two games were to have been played with Kee- watin at St. Augustine, but our team will be more or less broken up after the end of the Winter Term and the Coach says that it is doubtful whether any more games will be played. o It is absurd to fancy that all blondes are natural-born love pirates; some of them are not even natural-born blondes.
