P itcher and Right Field This is the representative team of the boarders. In former years it was linovvn as the Reserve team, but as the Day Scholars had ar representative nine this season, and the ' Varsity is no longer a hoarcler institution, the name 'iReserves was a misnomer and it'was therefore changed to Boarder Teamf' A Of last year' s nine, Brand, Blaum, Koch, Kempel and Lannig proved them4 selves fast enough for the 'Varsity and played on it, although in outside games the Boarders were allowed the use of Kempel, Lannig and also Schneider. Cthers of the '05-'06 line-uptwho are again with the Boarders are Averman and A. Bennis, who, at the meeting of the candidates, were elected manager and captain, respectively. I J 46

015132 Smoker . An event' of unusual interest a.nd most gratifying results was the smoker given under the auspices of the Senior Day Scholars at the College Villa for the benefit of the D. S. Athletic Association. Though Jupiter did not just dote on Villa Park the evening of June 5th, 1907, still a considerable number of gentlemen gathered with a large contingent of Day Scholars for the delightfully social meet. The committee of arrangements had transformed the spacious assembly hall into a gem of elegant decorations, and conjured up a menu whose very sight was sufficient to challenge desperate onslaughts. The Day Scholars? Juvenile Orchestra made a decidedly appreciated debut, whilst-progressive pedro, merry songs and informal speechmaking gave general zest to the happy occasion, which gave vent to its good will and friendly feelings by staking the D. S. A. A. with a handsome and liberal purse. In short, the unprecedented undertaking is deserving of all commendation, and will go far to link the Day Scholars closer to their Alma Mater. Accordingly the-assembly dis- solved itself with a mutual au revoir next year. s p ianarhzrs' Qltbletir Qlssnniatiun Fall Term. gggafh gf QBffiLg1'5 ,Spring Term. O. S. BTURPTTTY, S.

A SSISTANT BJANAGER OF PROPERTIES At the two meetings for the purpose of electing officers, the first held in September and the second in February, the above mentioned men were chosen. The accounts of the teams and leagues will be found elsewhere in this book, so the only thing 'of importance to come under this heading is the names of those who have been awarded the initial HO. They are as follows: For Basketball: Leo' Bennis, Jas. Mahoney, Jos. Helminiak, Prank Kem- pel, Jos. Blaum, Chas. McCabe, Ed. Esehrich. For Baseball: Jas. Mahoney, Ed. Eschrich, Leo Bennis, Andrew Ronan, Carl Brand, Andrew Brady, Merritt Persons, J os. Blanm, Henry Koch, Geo. Schneider, Jos. Helminiak, Geo. Lannig, Prank Kempel. In explanation o-f the rule regarding the wearing of the O, the following is quoted from the Lest W'e Forget of 1905-G: MA man, to earn his 'Of must play on the representative College ,team against outside teams in three full games, or 27 innings of baseball, or in three full or six half games of basket- ball, or in three full or six half games of hockey, during one scholastic year. 'lf a regular game be shortened for sufficient reason, but the candidate play the whole game, it shall be counted a full game. The Board of Officers deter- mines those eligible, but the final approval rests with the General Prefect. The award of 'O's for baseba.ll is to be made at the end of the spring season, and for basketball and hockey at the end of their respective seasons. The official CO7 is the 10-inch block, but any style 'Oi is forbidden to all but those fulfilling the specified conditions. This does not forbid anyone from wear- ing the CC' with another letter in a monogram, but they must be so interwoven as to form an inseparable designf 45
