w THE BATTALION Trinity Defeated In Both Games (Continued from page 1.) the new girls’ dormitory at the uni versity. We may raise our heads and think that we have something swell in Milner and Legett halls, hut it is nothing compared to Drane Hall at Trinity. Everything is of the Best. The girls of that place should surely feel themselves honored at having heen presented with such a nice build ing: Miss Clark, dean of the ladies, and a sister of “Fish” Clark of A. & M., showed the boys all through the hall. Every hospitality imaginable was afforded the A. & M. boys and they could not help but feel that they were really wanted at the dormitory. As they were inspecting the girls’ rooms they would occasionally have the honor of being introduced to some of the nice, friendly and beautiful girls w T ho help to make up the student body at Trinity University. When the boys reached the hall they found “Dutch” Hohn already there and act ing as an advance guard. He must have undoubtedly seen the building al ready, because he did not join the bunch as they made their tour. It was hard to get him away from the hall, and if it had not been for his fear of being shot at he would no doubt have stayed there the rest of the day. But there are excuses for everything and “Dutch” had one. You can not blame a boy for wanting to hang around when he is in company with as nice a girl as Caesar was that time. The boys next went to chapel, where they were loudly applauded as they entered. The night after the game the old A. & M. men of Waxahachie gave the team a banquet. This was done under the management of Jack Kidd, an old member of the college team. The boys ate to their heart’s content and had to leave without being able to "clean up.” On Monday night the Young Men’s Social Club gave a dance in honor of the boys. It was at this dance that the boys began to realize the hospital ity of which the Waxahachie girls were capable. They made every boy have a good time whether he wanted to or not. The members of the A. & M. Col lege baseball team are very grateful for the hospitality extended them by the sociable little city of Waxahachie and by the friendly student body of Trinity University. Even on the diamond was this strong spirit of fair treatment very evident. The umpire of both games, Mr. Wicker, was fair in every decision. Never before has the A. & M. club met with such fair and unquestionable decisions. FIRST GAME. A. & M.— AB. R. H. PO. A. E.
