FOUR TEAMS STILL f FIGHTING FOR CUP Inter-Frat League Games Are Varied in Results The right for the Inter-t'raternity baseball trophy has narrowed down to a race between four teams. The Kap- pa Alphas, by their easy victory over the Kappa Sigmas, have qualified for the third round, while the Phi Kappa Psis put the Phi Kappa Sigmas out of the running yesterday. The Alpha Tau Omega team is battling with the Sigma Phi Epsilon aggregation this afternoon for the right to stay in the semi—finals, while the Sigma Chis, by virtue of drawing a bye, will be in the race. Friday, the Sigma Chis will play the Phi Kappa Psis, while the Kappa Alphas are scheduled to meet the winner of the A. T. O.—S. P. E. setto. The winner of the semi—finals will set the date of the deciding clash. The Phi Kappa Sigmas won the bat- tle with the Sigma Nus bya comfort- able margin, 7 to 3. Clemmer was hit harder than Milner and received faultier backing. The hitting and fielding of Glass, together with the fieding of Ward, featured for the losers, while the twirling of Milner and Lopez’ home run brought a victory for the O. K. Es. Until Lopez drove out his home run, the game was a nip and tuck affair. I Phi Kappa !Sigma - - 7 Sigma Nu - — — 3 Milner and Fowlkes; Clemmer and Jackson.

What handicaps the managers of the in authorities football teams have experienced past years in securing desirable dates with leading colleges are to be rele- gated to the past. Manager McDougle has already given lgeed to the draft for 1916 by entering into correspon- dence concerning dates with several institutions. Though the desire of the Generals to engage in battle with one of the foremost Southern college elev- ens in the 1915 season the hope had to be abandoned because negotiations were entered into somewhat too late. By starting negotiations over a year prior to the first game, these obstacles will be removed from gaining the faV_ ored contests. By ascertaining what dates may be regarded as open in 1916, the foot- ball schedule drafter will be in a posi-_ it was tion to get a number of large games. Washington and Lee, by this policy may keep up the same pace as set by Two fea- tures are bound to come. The Gener- als are to have a big game in Lexing- ton and a struggle with one of the representative Southern colleges. These will be hailed with delight. the large eastern colleges. No Darktown Parade Ground OME traditions are rightly cher- ished by Washington and Lee.

It would be our suggestion that the spur be applied again in cases of the leisurely and weary-footed.

Our Sympathy Extended THE news of the death of the moth- er of Dr. J. W. H.

Jennings, who relieved Hastings in the fourth, held his oppo- nents withouta run during the re- maining sessions, while Fahey wav- ered in the twelfth and endowed the Generals with a 3 to 1 victory. The little southpaw was invincible in the 3 pinches. The opening round resulted in a run for the invaders. Young walked and stole second. Colville’s sacrifice sent him to third, while Smith’s passed ball enabled him to score. The game was deadlocked in the third when Croker singled, with one down, and abled Croker to ’ reach third, while him to register.

The two teams fought a nip and tuck battle, the Generals tieing the score in the seventh when Gallagher scored. Harrison’s heavy hitting featured, the right fielder ‘singling on his first three trips to the fplate.

Jen- nings was solved for hits by the ca- dets at timely stages, while the Gen— l erals did not retaliate strong enough on Neyland, who has not suffered a defeat this season. Twelve Generals went out on strikes. The cadets slugged Jennings for four hits in the opening round, which combined with three bobbles, gave the Army a four run lead. Young scored the first run with a homer in the third, but the cadets countered with two more in the same inning. Washing- ton and Lee fought pluckily to over- come the handicap andzscored two in the fourth and one in the seventh and eighth, but failed to surmount the big lead. Errors were quite numerous on both aggregations, as were hits. The speed of the cadets gave them four in- field hits against Jennings. Bailey and Harrison secured doubles off Ney- land. Bradley and Prichard were the only West Pointers to hit Jennings for extra bases. The,last game: W. and L. Young, cf. Colville, 3b. Gallagher, Bailey, 1b. Harrison, rf. Sweetland, c. Bagley, lf.

This motion was immediately second- ed, and a committee appointed to confer with a like committee from the other society. At the meeting of the two committees, however, the eligibil- ity rules could not be decided upon at once, but arrangements probably will be made in a few days for the game or series of games. 3. R. Collins opened the program for the evening by an oration, his sub- ject being “Ambition.” He was followed by Homer Powell, who spoke on “The Life of Samuel Houston.” The two declaimers of the evening were H. L. MacGregor and J. W. Blake, both having excellent subjects for their speeches. As the present war has practically cut off all intercourse between United States and Europe, a subject was dis- cussed in the debate. Resolved, “That there should be Reciprocity between South America and the United States.” D. S. Noble and R. C. Cole argued for the atlirmative against Samuel Wofsy and J. D. McCreadyi for the negative. The judges W. 0. Burton, P. D. Barns and G. B. Lamp- ton gave their decision two to one in favor of the affirmative. On next Saturday night election of olhcers for the first term of next year will be held. Graham—Lee Met ting Brief 1 l l I l Owing to the fact that the principal speakers and all of the debaters for the evening were absent, the Graham- Lee had a very short meeting on Sat- urday night. .1. C. Fisher delivered two short declamations, one in the German dia- lcet and the other in the Negro dia- lect, thus entertaining his auditors to the fullest extent. W. W. Sager spoke extemporane— ously on “The German Use of Subma- rines, ” explaining how Germany was Violating the principals of internation- al law by attacking neutral merchant- men. I The rest of the meeting was taken up in accepting and considering the challenge issued by the Washington in regard to a baseball game between the two societies. w. & L.

C. RIVERS E. S. SMITH AIthongh the Washington and Lee Orators Did Not Win the Medal They Brought the Next Contest to Lexington Washington and Lee will sponsor the annual contest of the Virginia State Intercollegiate Oratorical As- sociation next year. This conclusion was reached at the last contest, held in Salem at Roanoke College last Fri- I day. The representatives of the smaller institutions in competition with the larger received the award of the judges for oratory. J. C. Rivers represented Washing- ton and Lee in the contest, with a subject of “The Democratic Ideal in Peril.” The speaker proved a very fluent and convincing orator, possess- ing an excellent delivery. Despite his splendid delivery, his speech did not possess sufiicient intrinsic merit to earn the decision of the judges. Wil- liani and Mary’s representative re- ceived first honors, while Hampden- Sidney gained second place. The judges were D. E. McQuilkin, Judge Lucian Coxe and Rev J. L. ‘Sieber, of Roanoke, G. M. Rains, of ‘Roanoke College, and president of the association presided. Following the contest, a reception was given in the college commons in honor of the visit- ing orators. E. S. Smith was alternate to the contest but did not enter into it act- ively. C. P. Heavener has been elected president of the oratorical society for next year, with R. N.
