Deaf Mutes Play aBetter Game in Sec
ond Clash.
SCORE 5=3
In the second game with the Deaf
Mutes from Austin last Wednesday,
our boys found victory slightly more
difficult to attaind than it was on the
preceding day. The final score was
5-3.
The pitchers for both teams were
working well. Seale rivaled Olson in
strike-outs. For two or three innings
the batting was in one, two, three or-
er for each team. Skeeler’s big out
was very effective. The surprise of
the day was in the opposing pitcher.
With gilt-edeged support he would
surely have pressed us more closely.
Thodberg made some nice catches in
left field. The infield was not working
perfectly, and registered seeral errors.
The visitors’ fielding was an improve
ment over the specimen offered in the
previous game, partly due to the fact
that their pitcher didn’t allow the
horsehide to pass from the bat to the
vicinity of their hands.
The game was not as interesting as
the score might indicate, for it was a
foregone conclusion that victory would
be ours.

THE CARNIVAL.
Preparations for the annual spring
carnival at Kyle Field are well under
way. and this year’s carnival prom
ises to be the crowning feature of
the four big days late in April, the
month of many events. The calendar
for April this year offers an unusual
ly large number of attractions, begin
ning with baseball game between Texas
University and A. & M. April 21 and
22, the first day of the interscholastic
track meet on April 23, the finals of
the meet on the afternoon of April 24,
Saturday, and the carnival, which
opens at the conclusion of these finals
and continues until midight.
The social attractions are as fol
lows: Wednesday night, April .21,
Sophomore dance; Thursday night,
Ross Volunteer hop; Friday night,
Senioir-Junior dance, and also ora-
| torical contest and debate between
I representatives of Texas high schools i
and academies; and Saturday after
noon and night, the carnival.
At a meeting held recently Ike Ash-
burn, publicity agent, was re-elected
president of the carnival; G. S. Sa-
per was elected secretary, and James
Sullivan, treasurer. To make all ar
rangements for the carnival the fol
lowing committees were appointed:
Tents and general arrangements. Con
Lucid, A. C. Love, Charles Davis;
tickets and general finance, James
Sullivan; spielers, V. Barracco, W. K.
Hanson; floor manager, E. E. Mc
Adams; tent row attractions, F. J.
Bechert, G. C. Palmer, F. J. Skeeler:
music, Ocie Green; lighting, W. K.
Davis and the Turpe brothers; cam
pus donations for booths, W. K.
Francis; donations for booths from
Bryan, N. D. Zuber, Guy Adriance,
Earle Graham, H. H. Gammill. These
committeemen were given the power
of drafting as many assistants as may
be needed to the end that the work
may not prove too heavy for any set
of men. Another meeting of these
committeemen will be held this week
some time, when plans for the carni
val will be discussed at still greater
length.
The carnival this season wall be on
a broader basis than heretofore as
the result of departmental shows that
will be offered in the tent row. The
electrical engineers and chemical en
gineers already have planned their
shows and are assembling the ap
paratus and equipment for attrac
tions, that not only will amuse, but
also will instruct, in a sense, and will
be representative of the work of the
departments. The agricultural stu
dents under the leadership of W. L.
Stangle and planning a fat stock show
that will be worth the money, and
the C. E.’s and M. E.’s are discussing
i plans for a tent each.
The carnival this year will amuse
and please and yet he who pays his
way into the shows will get his
money’s worth.
Another new feature that will be
given a trial this year will add ma
terially to the “carnival spirit.” At
the night session of the carnival all
those attending will be invited to ap
pear in masquerade. The young
women who are to come here for the
activities of the week should be in
vited to bring along a fancy costume
of some sort, and all cadets will have
the privilege of appearing in mas
querade. There Is but one limitation
set and that it is that no “rough
house” stuff shall be resorted to.
All in all, it looks like this year’s
carnival will set a high water mark
in the way of such events.
WAKE UP, FRESMMEN.
Freshmen, think of the chances
That pass you day by day,
To make some good advances
In class or work or play.
Then think of how to better
That class of old T8;
Let’s stand for right and honor—
We cannot be too clean.
Stand up for all our colors,
And they will stand for you;
We want to be the beacon
To lead other classes through.
Help up some struggling classmate,
To hold his honor steady,
For he may be near to help you
When you are troubled and unready.
