Law School Baseball Trip.
The Easter Trip of the Law School
Baseball Nine is considered by its pro-
moters most satisfactory. Five games
were played, the Law School winning
three. The men were everywhere re-
ceived with marked hospitality, and at
several ‘places entertainments were
given in their honor.
The team left New. Haven on Thurs-
day, April 7, playing its first game with
the Harvard University Nine at Wash-
ington, D. C., on Friday afternoon.
The Law School team won by a score
of 11 to 7. Friday morning was spent
in visiting the Capitol and other places
of interest about the city. The second
game was played on Saturday with
Fredericksburg College, at Fredericks-
burg, Va., resulting in favor of the lat-
ter by a score of 10 to 0. On Saturday
evening the men were tendered a re-
ception in the College Hall, following
a concert given in their honor by the
College musical organizations. The
team remained in Fredericksburg over
Sunday. :
On Monday.a game was played with
the St. John’s College Nine at Annapo-
lis, Md., which was won by the Law

work, and the game was won without
afierror, bya: score of fo to 3. The

Clerical Members of the Cor-
poration.
[New Haven Correspondence N. Y. Evening Post,]
The death of the Rev. Dr. George
Bushnell of New Haven, at the ad-
vanced age of seventy nine years, creates
among the life members of the Yale
Corporation a vacancy to be filled pre-
sumptively at the next meeting. Dr.
Bushnell was graduated in the Class of
Forty-Two, four years later was or-
dained, after study in the Yale Divinity
School, and served as pastor of Con-
gregational churches at . Worcester,
Mass., Waterbury, Conn., and Beloit,
Wis. He lived in this city from 1884
up to his death. He was a brother of
Horace Bushnell of Hartford, famous
as a preacher and as a pioneer in what
has since been called the “new theol-
ogy” of Congregationalism. Dr. Bush-
nell was elected to the Yale Corporation
ten years ago, when almost seventy
years old, and his place will be filled
by vote of the life members only, all
Connecticut clergymen, the elective six-
year members having no vote. The
clerical life members are now nine in
number. They are, with dates of elec-
tion to the Corporation, the Rev.
Joseph H. Twichell of Hartford, 1874,
the oldest member of the Corporation
in tenure of office; the Rev. Joseph W.
Backus of Farmington, 1875; the Rev.
Charles Ray Palmer of New Haven,
1880; the Rev. Joseph Anderson, of
Waterbury, 1884; the Rev. James W.
Cooper of New Britain, 1885; the Rev.
Burdett Hart of New Haven, 1885; the
Rev. Theodore T. Munger of New Ha-
ven, 1887; the Rev. George L. Walker
of Hartford, 1887, and the Rev. Edwin
P.. Parker, Hartford, 1895. The list is
of interest as showing to those even
moderately familiar with the names the
large admixture of clergymen of the
liberal Congregational type—a fact
which bears upon the rossibility here-
after of electing to the Presidency of
Yale a man who is not a clergyman.
For the same reason the choice of Dr.
Bushnell’s successor will be watched
with considerable interest.

Fence’ Orator Elected.
Jesse Dwight Dana of Brookline,
Mass., was unanimously chosen Sopho-
more Fence Orator, Monday evening.
Mr. Dana was the Fence Orator in
Freshman year.
A lively Fence rush followed the
meeting and threats are heard of the
Faculty’s abolition of the Sophomore
Fence.
MILITARY DRILLS AT YALE,

During the absence of Captain Arthur
Murray, it has been decided to con-
tinue the weekly drill of the Senior
companies under the direction of the
officers appointed by him. In additon
to the regular members of the Academic
Company, all Seniors and men from
other classes of the Academical De-
partment who are interested in drilling
have been requested to report at the
armory every Monday afternoon at 4.30.
If enough men report it is proposed to
form a battalion.
The call for new men was made in
response to the increased interest from
the present national crisis. About one
hundred men reported at the armory
last Monday. The following is the list

demic Company:

Saturday’s Demonstration.
While the Sophomores at the Fence
on Saturday night were singing Amer-
ica, a few Seniors began marching up
and down in front of Durfee. An un-
usual crowd was out for the first
Spring-like night of the year, and
nearly all had been singing national
hymns. The few marchers attracted
more of their own class, and of other
classes to their ranks, and before any-
one could have told why they were do-
ing it, the whole company was moving.
Aiter a call at White and Pierson the
column had increased to from four to.
five hundred students.
The first stop was on the steps of
Osborn, where national hymns were
sung. Then the column, commanded by
Captain-General Roger Winthrop, ’608,
with J. I. Lockman, °08, as standard
bearer, marched to the Green, where an
immense circle was formed around the

flag pole, and there was much dancing.
A drum corps of two drums furnished
inspiration. Then the line went up
Chapel to York, and came back to Col-
lege. President Dwight was cheered
in passing and the column moved on
to Trumbull street. A speech was
wanted from Professor Phelps, but
he was away.. A similar demand was
served on Professor Hadley, but he had
a dinner party and prayed to be ex-

Our point is that the Knox is
the best hat that American

is, it is perfect. | American

thoroughness, and a taste that
ever studies the possibilities of
graceful head-gear, combine to
sustain and develop a national
reputation of the highest order.
