THE VIRGINIA MILITARY INSTITUTE, FRIDAY, APRIL 28. 1911 NO. 24 TO THE VICTORS, THE SPOILS Basket Ball Monograms Awarded The aecoad of the Easter hops on SaturflH.v night saw the presentation of thp basketball monograms for the aeaaor of 1911, by Colonel Patton. He in a short and apply worded ad-dresB tnld the interet'led audience of the harrlahips any V. M. I. athletic team plays under, and in particular the baakethall,-how every point gain-ed represent work of the hardest kind. The monograms lor the first year, consisting of a five inch V.M.

Straight monograms were awarded to Biedler. as manager, which is thi rustom and to Mecredy, as captain, for whom this is the third year, as a monogram man. The pnat season cannot be called thf mo^t Huccessful.in view of games won, hut. considering the material at hand when the season opened, Ihe men to whom monog»ams were award-ed madf rapid strides towards the bnst team the Institute has ever seen, and ppxt y a r promises even better things. Delinquent List V. M. 1. DEFEATS MARYLAND AGGIES 8 TO 7 Bryan Breaks Up Game in Tenth Inning with Home Run The following is a list of the men who have not paid thoir subscription to THE CADET. Tihs list, will be published every week until these are paid. FIRSR CLASS COIP Collier Dasliiell Porter Rifhard on • liuohrinund Smith, .1 Siiiith, M. Triiik li> Walker W h i ' f WiiHon, R. SECOND CLASS Brown, Brown, Eastham Gayle Gelnn- Grove Hustie H'j^vard .Jackson, S. Kane Long Moore. C, Ri^.M! Stev.Mi^on Teinpiel on Throckiiiorton West THIRD CLASS Ewing. 1). Hard away FOURTH CLASS Merry Graves Speaking of baseball gtmes we claim that there was one h^fn last Saturday. Not that kinri ttf game that haf you carried to the s k i t s with hope only to be let down rather abruptly. And it ended witti the hig score on the right and propfr side. Things started right when Jonep-ville Sewell, the first man, swatted one for three bases, and Clwrkson hit one so hard that the third ()a.«(>man Couldn't hold it, letting in Sewell. But oh, that third inning, it sure gave the V. M. L sympathizers a bump. Hits and errors let four of the Dutchmen turn the home corner. And the fourth inning ran it up one, but we s t a r t e d something our-selves. Ely, from Jone.3vilio, got a clean single and Dickens tiipled and scored on passed ball. Now to show that a hit is not necessary for a run here's what Heavy Owen did. He fanned out, but got to first when the catcher passed the ball. He was sac rificed to second and then got on his toes and stole third, and that isn't all, he just stole home. And the score was four and five the wrong way. The sixth inning finished up with the score five to seven and still the wrong way. In the seventh all thai happened was that Ely went in to pitch for Throck. Ely and Dickens repeated their stunt of a single, followed by a triple, in the eighth and wiien Red Moore knocked a clean singl** to cen-ter, scoring Owen and tying the score, things just busted. The ninth just took the breath out of everybody. The first man up was safe on an er-ror, and when he got around to third everybody stopped breathing. But by nipping flies things were brought around 0. K. The tenth came around and M. A. C. couldn't hit Ely. And it looked like we couldn't hit either. It was two out, the score was tied and Bry-an. Did he wait for hi.^ ba.ie? Not much. The M. A. C. coach was try-ing to gel Heavy to call the game to catch a train. While he had his bai-k turned Bryan pulled oft' his Dick Mer riwell stunt. He hit the ball; the ball hit the ground just about three inches inside of third base and sailed over the parapet. It hasn't been found yet. Who did i t ? Bry?n. The team is g e t t i n g right now in the batting line. They got just thir-teen hits and Duckitt pitched a no hit game against the University of Maryland not long r.go. Throck was not in his usual good form, but who can expect him to be good as gold all the time, when he pitches every game? You're all right. Throck. Ely pitched professional ball the four innings he worked. Nobody got a hit oir of him. SCORE BY INNINGS F i r s t Inning: Ritter out. Dickens to Owen. Furniss fingk'."! to right.

Owen f a n s , b u t safe on catcher's 1912 CLASS RING ADOPTED Of numerous designs offered the committee has selected the one sub-mitted by the Bailey, Banks and Bid-die company of Philadelphia. This firm supplied J:he ring J or the present first class and has also supplied rings' for the U. S. Military and Naval academies in recent years. The die has already been cast and two sam-ple rings have been submitted, one of the light finish, the other of the ' dark. These rings are very pretty, surpassing any ring ever selected be-fore by any class at the Institute. The design of the ring follows out the plan set by our predecessors in having on one shank the seal of Vir-ginia, surmounted by the American eagle, and is f u r t h e r ornamented by an oak wreath. The idea of having one shank common to all rings got-ten out by the different classes is a splendid one and we hope the classes to follow will carry it out. On the opposite shank appears the class crest with the numerals " 1 9 1 2" raised in the center of a heraldic shield under which appears the name " V i r g i n i a Military I n s t i t u t e " in re-lief letters on a ribbon scroll. In rear of the shield there are crossed cannon and swords with an army rifle' .passed ball. Bryan ffMirifipps passing through their junc tur e , wbicb to second.

The ring will be set with a buffed- " top amethyst faceted beneath to add' to the brilliancv of the alone, the back of the ring being I t f l open. Encircling this will be a band com-posed of bound reeds on which will be s t a r s in relief. The owners name, town and state will be engraved on the inner band. There will be two finishes to the ring, the light and the dark, the selection of which is l e f t to the individual. All orders havi been booked with the exception of thos^e who intend to get their rings next year. The rings, should reach here about the 10th of. May. which is the date set by the company for delivery. CoRliimeti on page 3 A noted Oxford professor says that the American Rhodes' scholars are not examples ol brilliancy and in-du& try. The five women's societies at Northwestern presented " A s You Like I t " a short time ago, and th«' eds of the University were excluded' f r om the performance. A college will be established at Fort Hare, Cape Providence, South Africa. We fear that the student body will be a sad combination in the land that knows not of the " J im Crow'' and like laws. An entire edition of the Harvard Lampoon was iuppressed by the fac-ulty a short time ago because of car-icatures of faculty members, show-ing thern in a sad plight. The few issues that were distributed are now quoted at $15 a piece; all of which goes to show that troublous clouds that hover around the funny editor have a silver lining. Not so with The Texan.
