TEAM SUPPORT.
Our baseball team this season is
not as strong as it was last year.
Many of the fellows played company
ball last year while others are getting â– 
their first taste of college ball. Of
course these fellows will find college
baseball different from the other kinds
and will probably become discouraged
if everything does not start off right
from the first. Then’s the time for
the men on the bleachers to open up
with redoubled vigor. They can cheer
the team on to victory in the very
face of defeat. Systematic rooting is
one of the most important factors to
be reckoned with a victory.
Follow the old football yell leaders:
show the members of the team that
you have confidence in them.
There is another way in which ev
ery man can support the team and
that is by buying a season ticket. A
large crowd at a ball game helps the
players immensely. No man wants to
make a poor showing before his fel
low classmates. He will put his best
foot forward and do the best work
he is capable of putting out. Aside
from the direct help to the players the
finances of the team will be strength
ened if every man buys a ticket for
all the games. The price $2.00 for
ten games is as reasonable as one
could desire and each fellow should
have a ticket even though he may
have to check up in other lines and
go without somethings he would like
to have. *
Buy a season ticket, go to the
games and—ROOT.
“Other papers all remind us
We can make our own sublime,
If our fellow school-mates send us
Contributions all the time.
Here a little, there a little,
Story, club note, song or jest,
If you want a slick school paper,
Each of you must do your best.” >s

Rev. Ahrenbecjh Addresses Associa
tion— Elefetinfi. of Officers.
Mr. Ahrenbech made quite a spirit
ed address to a large number of cad
ets in the chapel Sunday nigbt|.. He
spoke of office-seekers in the national
governments and of the office-seekers
in the divine kingdom. James and
John asked Jesus Christ for the high
est position at His disposal but now
a-days the office in the divine king
dom must, as a rule go begging. He
made mention of what we owe
Christ as our savior, and that we
ought, by serving Him in some way,
to try to repay Him in a small meas
ure for what he has done for us. He
spoke of the character of Christ—t^t »•
He was not a dejected, sorrowing, de- 1
spairing, but always a hopeful ener
getic, loving personality,’even amidst
the bitterest strife and trials.
After the address the officers for
the ensuing year were elected. Those
elected were: Weinert, president;
Symes, vice-president; Ward, Secre
tary-treasurer; Cunningham, chair
man of Bible Study committee; Sigel,
chairman of Religious Meetings com
mittee; Brannin, chairman of Member
ship committee; Miller, R. F., chair
man of Reception committee; Mun
son, H. W., chairman of Finance com
mittee.

I Remember Us For Your I
BARRINTON HALL.
On Saturday evening, March 21, a
company composed of young people
of Bryan presented Barrington Hall
to a very appreciative audience. The
same company had played at Bryan
and at Navasota but at neither place
did they receive a warmer reception
than they did here. The applause
was very generous and after the play
was over nothing but words of praise
and satisfaction was heard on every
side. Much credit is due the members
of the party for the excellent work
they did in spite of the limited stage
accommodations. Mr. M. S. Black
burn, who got up the play and
coached the members is to be con
gratulated on the success of his un
dertaking.
Between acts Mrs. Webb Howell
and Mrs. W. C. Davis of Bryan each
rendered several beautiful vocal se
lections. The Imperial Brass Quar
tette and the College band also en
tertained the audience between cur
tains. The proceeds of the entertain
ment outside of expenses went to the
Long Horn.
