Representatives of all but one of the
fraternities met last night at the Sig
ma Alpha Epsilan house and drew up
.a'schedulo of dates by -which the Inter-
tratornlty baseball loaguc games will
be played. Instead of scheduling each
fraternity for a game with every other
fraternity the committee decided to di
vide the ten represented In two groups.
O street was chosen as a convenient
line of demarcation and the schedule
was eo arranged that the fraternities
residing north of O are to play each
other and those on the south side
have a similar arrangement. The win
ners of the two divisions will then
play for the lnter-fraternlty champion
ship. ThiB arrangement Is by far the
most feasible, the old way of each
team meeting every other usually hav
ing resulted In a number of games nev
er being played and teamB disbanding
because of lack of tlmG. A shorter
schedule" completed will add greater In
terest to these gameB. The first game
will be played Saturday between the
Delta U and Sig. Alph teams. Presi
dent Williams, of the league, will toss
the first ball over the plate In the open
lug game. McLaughlin, of Kappa Slg

Costumes Pictured.
Prof. C. E. Perslngcr gave n very
Interesting historical lecture at Con
vocation yesterday on "Three Centur
ies of American Costumes." fittingly
Illustrated by lantern slides. In a few
picliminary pictures Prof. Persinger
showed the development of the English
cobtumea of both men and women In
the fourteenth century, at the period
or the American Colonization and In
the time of Gladstone. Ho then por
trayed tho American costumes at the
periods of tho Virginia and Puritan
Colonization In the beginning of tho
17th century showing the styles of
dress of tho men, In civil and military
life, and women.
The first radical change In cos
tumes came at the end of the 17th cen
tury when the fantastic wig was in
troduced Trom Europe. This headgear
some gae way to national hair ex
tremely powdered.
Types of wigs worn on various occa
sions were pictured. It is said tjhnt the
men spent more time in dressing their
wigs than women, which judged from
today's feminine conventionalities
seems hard to believe.
Anothei distinct change of dress was
Introduced in the Revolutionary pe
riod when the large triangular liat
came into fashion and very gay col
ore predominated.
Again the French Revolution creat
e.l a decided change in dress, the tight
knee britches giving way to long ti ous
els. This new style affected the demo
cratic west, abrui.tly but the aristo
cratic east long clung to the old fashions.
The last radical change in methods
of dress was made between 1840 and
fifty when the styles assumed forms
similar to modern times. At that time
the "Prince Albert" coat was Invented
and the high silk hat was universally
worn. With the ladles the return of
the huge hoop skirt added fascination
to their figures.
