Sheffield ran off and left the
immortal Gallagher of Okla-
homa A. & M. in the 100 yard
dash and the 220 hurdles respet-
tivly. He had never before

a sore blow to himself and his
colleagues. Snipes shive,red his

TRINITY LOSES TWO GAMES

Second Game.
The second game was" a very
interesting contest from every
standpoint. Both sides "chang-
ed pitchers, which made things i
look like a pitcher's battle for |
awhile, or that is, until Ayres
got so far ahead of Edmondson
that the latter forgot he was in
the race.
The first score came in the
second half of the fifth 'inning.
With two men out, Sheffield
drew a pass to first and stole
second in a jiffy. Moody then
placed a twister in the unguard-
ed spot behind first base, which
brought Sheffield home.
Ayres kept the score keeper
busy marking strikeouts until
Southwestern came to bat in the
eight. Moody then made room
for himself on first base but not
being content with this proceed-
ed to appropriate second. Stone
followed with a bunt to the
pitcher, who in his eagerness
to catch Moody on second,
threw the ball through a big
loophole in second baseman,
while Moody patted himself on
the back and trotted down to
third. With a pretty bunt Dow-
len reached first scoring Moody.
In the ninth Trinity turned
tables. With no outs, the bases
were filled brimfull and the at-
mosphere along the sidelines
took on a bluish tint. Specta-
tors held their breath at the
impending danger. Could Ayres
pull out ? In previous innings
he had <;ut down three straights,
but could he now? How disas-
trous would be a mere single!
Men almost shivered at the
thought of a double. Trinity
felt the situation and her play-
ers were howling like the fiendish
incarnates of Hades. One strike
on the batter—two swings, and
he had not touched the ball.
But the third brought him an
easy grounder which Ayres met
half way, cutting off the score
by a quick throw. The crowd
then breathed easier. The next
batter sent a long fly to Sheffield
but the runner scored after the
ball had touched the fielder's
hands Third batter went down
with a short fly to Vaughan and
the game was saved.
Strikeouts, Ayres 15, Edmond-
son 7; hits Hamilton, 1, Webbl,
McCollum 1 Tucker 1, Moore 1,
McLain 1. Ayres 1, Moody 1;
stolen bases, Hamilton 2, Mc-
Lain 1, Sheffield 1, Moody 1.
S. U.—0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1—2

Cabinet Meetings
It is the purpose of the Y. W.
C. A. Cabinet to have an open
meeting on the fourth Wednes-
day in every month, at which
all committee members are
present, but as it was incon-
venient to do so the fourth
Wednesday in April it was post-
poned until IVTay 5. Monthly re-
ports from the several commit-
tees were read and afterward
the regular business of the cabi-
net was transacted. By having
open cabinet meetings, the mem-
bers of each committee learn
what the other committees are
doing, and thus take a £more
vital interest in ^the work as a
whole.
THE DEVOTIONAL MEETINGS.
During the year we have had
many very interesting topics for
our devotional meetings. We
i believe that is one reason our at-
tendance has increased instead
of decreasing as is usually the
case toward the close of the year.
; One of the most interesting
: subjects of this year was the
missionary topic May 2nd. It
was the problem of the foreigner
in Texas. The Advocate was a
great deal of help in preparing
for the program. Miss Monta
Morris made a most able leader.
She gave something of what is
'being done in Galveston. Mr.
Bartok was so kind to write us
a paper concerning the Bohemi-
an work in Texas. Then several
short discusisons of the Mexi-
can, Italian, and German work
followed. In the closing part
of the service we were shown
the opportunities that we Teaxs
girls have In the summer we
could use our time profitably by
organizing Bible and Mission
Study classes * at ^home among
these strangers. Since the for-
eigner is sent to us it is for us
to teach them of our Christ.
The following are some of the
topics we have had for our devo-
tional meetings:
"Kadesh—barnea," "Morn-
ing Watch," "Mountains of the
Bible"," "Special Easter Pro-
gram," "Vision of Isaiah," led
by Marguerite Stuart. The av-
erage attendance for April was
eighty-two.
MORE DOPE ABOUT THE SOU'-
WESTER.
r
Of late those have not paid
their just debts to the Annual
have perhaps heard a good deal
about that book, and they are
apt to hear a good deal more.
They writer has seen the proof
of the this years' Sou'wester,
and he does not hesitate to call
it the best that has been gotten
out by Southwestern University.
The staff has however made the
publication of such a book pos-
sible only by hard work and by
dependence upon every one of
the student body to pay what he
promised to pay, when he had
hi3 picture made, or joined a
class. Many of the bills have
not yet-been paid and it has
been rumored that the Annual
will not be placed on the market
until they are paid. When you
refuse to pay a Sou'wester bill
are you acting fair toward the
management of .that book, and
fair toward the other students
who do pay their bills?
Only a few more days now
and the book will be ready for
sale. You can not afford not to
have one. If you don't
pay up right now, the chances
are you won't get one. We
know that if you knew how
much it costs to print our An-
nual that you would make a
special effort to pay. For the
sake of your honor, S. U.'s glory,
and the success of future An-
nuals, do your part by this one.
Remember this is no charity
cause—only a matter of payment
of debts that are due and must
be collected.
