C. State and Richmond THREE PITCHERS TAKEN Osterman and Radford Will Help Captain Folliard On Strenuous Invasion The Washington and Lee varsity baseball team, after winning its two opening games, left yesterday morn- ing on a five-game trip to Duke, North Carolina, North Carolina State, and the University of Rich- mond. —_The opening tussle was slat- ed forithis afternoon with the Blue ’ Devils, while another game between the two teams will ‘be played tomor- row. From Durham, the Generals will travel over to Raleigh to engage the Wolfpack of N. C. State on Friday, and will return to Chapel Hill on Saturday to conclude the invasion of the Tar Heel state by meeting the University'of North Carolina. The final battle of the road trip will take place on Monday afternoon against the University of Richmond. The fine showing of Osterman against Cornell on Monday rassures Coach Smith of another first class hurler to alternate with Captain Fol- liard during the strenuous road trip. It is also very probable that Rad- ford will get a chance to show his wares before the’ team returns to Lexington. The varsity outfield continues to be an unsettled p1'oblems.C_oach Smith has tried several different combina- tions both in practice and under fire, but is not yet satisfied that he has hit the best trio.

MOT WHITE FLANNELS WILL BE WORN IN COLLEGES Plain white flannels trousers will be preferred by college men_ this spring, according to gathered by Men’s Wear and the Daily News Record. The fashion ob- servers have been told by New Haven custom tailors who make clothes for a great number of university students throughout the East, and whose cus- tomers have appreciable style influ- ence, that the striped and 'block striped flannelswhich were’ liked by university men in previous seasons will be seen. this year.on only a small minority.“ According to‘ thesgeatailors, plain gray flannels, always popular, have this season yielded considerable ground to the solid white fabrics, and the number of the latter order- ed shows that thelwearing of odd flannel trousers will be a fashon- able practice among university men.

Masons Initiate Three New Men The Washington and Lee square of Square and Compass, intercol- legiate Masonic fraternity, initiated three men Thursday afternoon. L. W. James, a junior in the school of applied science and a member of Sigma Phi Epsilon social fraternity, Harold E. Slanker, a sophomore in the commerce school and a member of Alpha Chi Rho, and H. H. Switzer, a senior in the academic school and a member of Phi Delta Theta, were the initiat- es. A smoker was held at 8 o’clock at the Alpha Chi Rho house, the fea- ture of the evening being a paper read by Dr. Howe, of the chemistry department, entitled “Masonry and Kipling.” The date of the national found- ers’ day banquet has been set for May 8. __.:o__.__ WASHINGTON AND LEE BEATS CORNELL 3-2 (continued from page 1) former hurled 6 innings yielding five hits, while in the three frames that Froehlic twirled he gave up three, but these three were bunched and accounted for two runs. Coach Smith did further experi- menting with his outer works Mon- day. He started the game with Tuggle, Slanker, and Tips ‘doing the parading. In the fifth Tuggle gave way to Warthen. The infield was the same as started against Catholic Uni- versity and appeared to be working nicely except for a ripple or so. Spotts and Jones led the Generals willow Swingers with two hits each.

GIBSON LEAVES FOR ARDMORE AFTER 1 APRIL 15 SERVICE Dr. Churchill Jones Gibson, pastor of the Robert E. Lee Memorial church, will conduct his last service here on Sunday, April 15. He will be assisted by Bishop Thompson of the Episcopal diocese of Southern Vir- ginia, and will leave on the follow- ing day for his new parish at Ardmore, Pennsylvania. Ardmore, on the outskirts of Phila- delphia, is a progressive suburb as is shown by the fact that the con- gregation to be in Dr. Gibson’s charge is now building a new parish house at a cost of $100,000. Dr. Gibson will assume his new duties there on Sunday, April 22. ___()_j_ UNIVERSITY GETTING SPRING OVERHAULING Mr. P. M. Penick, University treasurer, reports that all spring im- provements on the university are now underway and will be finished before the general summer over- hauling and repairing is begun. Reid and Newcomb Halls are being painted, new water pipes have been laid to the dining hall, the campus is being beautified, and young trees planted in advantageous spots. The two big jobs in the improve- ment of the school AIS spring are the building of the ,femorial Bridge with its approachea, and the repair and extension of the campus roads. ———0 INITIATION OF 0. D. K. PLEDGES POSTPONED Initiation of new pledges to Omi- cron Delta Kappa, national honorary fraternity, has been postponed until some time soon after the East- er holidays, according to Dr. W. M. Brown, secretary. It had been expected to hold the ini.L...;.n tL;is__\*.';el;, but due to the inability to get’ a speaker, it was found necessary to have it at a lat- er date. It is thought that a speaker wile’ be obtained at once, and that his name will be announced next week.

There’s hardly a brand or a blend that I haven't tried out at some time or 3Lher. But speaking of smoking tobacco Lhat brings real enjoyment, and never changes, I want to say that there IS just one tobacco that gives me real enjoyment in my pipe—,Edgeworth. I have used Edgeworth Ready Rubbed and Plug Slice for over five years, in all climates and under all -onditions, and I find it always the same. It is always mellow and moist, ind its genuine flavor lasts. There is no bite or parch in Edgeworth, and the iuality, whether you buy it in small .)r large quantities, is always perfect. Thanks to the manufacturers for their wonderful product, and I hope that Edgeworth can always be obtain- able by the undersigned. Guy B.
