queen's taste yesterday before the
largest crowd that has turned out to
a baseball gamo for some time. The
game was featureless executing for a
homo rim by Miller, who put the ball
through the machine shop window.
The small grounds were a severe hand

were with obstructions, and what bum

CAP GOES TODAY.
Famous Freshman Head Piece
Goes to the Lucky Man
This morning at 10 o'clock the fa
mous Freshman cap tho solo survivor
of his tribe, which alono escaped the
trial by llro and tho murderous in
clinations of tho upper classmen will
be raffled off at tho Big Rock east
of the library. There on the historic
spot where many an orator has done
his impromptu in premeditated and
malicious execlso of speech, the draw
ing for the cap will take place. The
premiums announced several days ago
as going with tho tickets have been
withdrawn, as Insufficient inquiry has
been made for them. However, it lias
been decided that tho man winning the
cap will take all those holding tickets
up to Rector's for refreshments. It
Is quite likely that the cap will be
passed around through the crowd for
Inspection, and then submitted .to the
committee of the Freshmen who will
O. K. It as to gonuineness. All are
free to come out and watch proceed
ings, and special arrangements have
been made to take -care of the crowd.
Tho placards which tho advertising
manager of t lie soon to appear Senior
I aw book have placed so prominently
before the public, have been removed
by those In charge ot tho dook as ioo
lurid and praising the book on terms
somewhat too extravagant.
The editors prefer to have the book
received by the students as their judg
ment says it meritB.
