It has been brought to our attention that some one has been breaking into the candy and soda water stand at the athletic field and stealing the supplies. We feel that every student is interested in this matter; therefore, we take this opportunity to bring it to their attention. One College official has the following to say concerning these occurrences: “You doubtless know that the concessions at Kyle Field are awarded eadh year to worthy athletes. The candy and soda water concession was awarded to Darby and Neely, both worthy athletes and both Rave done much for our athletic teams. “Since the baseball season has opened these boys have put considerable supplies in their stand under the grandstand and we furnish them a lock to the room. On two occasions, one being last night (March 25) some thought less students have broken into this room and taken their supplies. They used an axe or some heavy instrument and broke down the door to gain en trance. The loss, while small, means considerable to these two worthy students who are not only working their way through College but are con tributing much to the success of our athletic teams. It is hard to realize that anyone would be so ungrateful of the service these boys are rendering the institution, that they would so far forget themselves as to steal the supplies of two men who are in a large measure depending on the sale of these sup plies to pay their way through college. It will be recalled that these two students have taken every precaution to protect their stock of goods. If the person or persons who took these supplies have any manhood at all left in them they will immediately reimburse these two worthy students the full amount covering everything stolen. No one but a thief of the lowest type would do a thing like that and it is certainly to be regretted that we have such a person in this community and the sooner he is apprehended and placed where all thieves should be the better the community will be.” We have just learned from one of the students who owned the supplies, that they have almost positive proof that it was not studens of this institu tion who stole the articles. Nevertheless, we are sure that the students should know about the above matter and should help the authorities in every way possible to prevent its reoccurance. We feel that it was thoughtlessness, together with a certain amount of boyish bravado, which caused this petty thievery and sincerely hope that the guilty parties will realize their mistakes before it is too late. ♦ ♦ * “Y” NOTES ♦ ♦ ♦ Cabinet Meets. At the regular meeting of the Cab inet plans were discussed by the President and others whereby educa tional advantages could be given the Mexican laborers on the campus. N a definite plans were outlined, although some excellent ideas were brought out by members of the group. Many of the Cabinet members pledged their support in helping with the com ing orchestral entertainment. * * * “Y" Workers Meeting. At the next .regular meeting men who have worked for the Asso ciation will be invited to attend. It is hoped that a large group will be present and help extend the Chris tian influence of the Association to every student. “Y" Purchases New Pianos. Realizing the need for high class music for the students, the Y officials and Cabinet with the cooperation of other representative students out lined a plan whereby the Association could make the purchase of two pianos, one to be used in the lobby and the other in the assembly hall. The lobby piano has the electric am- pico attachment and is of the finest quality. A great treasure is in store for the lovers of music. The piano allfor the assembly hall is of fine qual ity and promises to make a wonder ful improvement in the music fui’- nished at the shows and various en tertainments. It is hoped that the students will realize the value of these additions and cooperate in tak ing the best of care of them. THE ANSWER.
