BASE BALL DOPE.
HE time of tbe year is fast approachin when baseball will call the f(ost bitten fans from their hibernations. In fact the local season has already started and enthusiasm is apparent on every side. Owing to the wet grounds practice has been confined to the gymnasium and every afternoon witnesses a squad of the ''old boys" working out. The size of the gym handicaps the men greatly, but in spite of this some good work is heing done in loosening up arms and with the bat. The majority ol last year's team are still in school, the only ones lost by graduation being ''Sard" Bate and L. W . ·warson. This is an encouraging feature o all those- who are in crested in the ucce s of baseball in Otterbein. Among those who played last year and are available as players for this year's team are Smith, Strahl, Kring, Funk, Flick, Hall and Sanders. Altho the e men are veterans at the game, they will have to work hard to make the team ju t as if they had never belonged to the team. This fact hould be a source of encouragement to any one wJ- o is thinking of trying for the team. o one, because of any previou record on the college team, will be given any more "show" than the new man who is faithfully training and practicing. Every one will have a fair chance to make the team and Captain Flick is de irious of having a large number of men trying for posi tions. For catcher's positfon, several experienced men are available. Harry Spitler is a likely candidate who bas had several years' exper ience as catcher on the crack Findlay high school. L. M. Kel ler is also trying for the same place and bas had valuable exper ience on an amateur team of the . C. R. of Dayton. Captain

College life there is plenty of good material consists of much more than for a stron(! outfield. mastery of its text books. While It is hoped that no one will get the curriculum is the nucleus the impression from the above upon which a college must build summary-that it will be no use to yet the studies ought not to be try for a _elace on the team. and ne\ er is ·t he- nly thing that ''The best man for the place" .vill co mands the interest and J be the rule and an quai c 1au1..e pvi will be given to all.

Score cards will never show just how large apart the "Whoop hip wbo" has pJayed in winning many a hotly contested ga~e, but this makes i.t none the less a mighty factor in every contest. Just now io the interval between the basket and baseball seasons the attention of our students is being focu ed upon the coming debate between Heidelberg and Otterbein. The students feel that Otterbein must win. The fact that Heidelberg has been able in the present school year to wrest two victories from us in other lines makes it impera tive that in the present <;:onte$t ve shall vin, and surely ff hard and earnest work ,1:an wiri, th.e membeI of the present team a c des rving of victory, but bi is not an affair of the team alone.

EDITORIAL. There is no place where har mony is n1ore to be desired than tn a college. Every student should seek to maintain the best of 'relations toward his fellows. This is one of the foundation stones for a true college sp irit. The spirit of the coll ege is ga uged by the spirit of the individuals who compose the general student body . The influ en ce i~ reflexive, each assis ting the other. \Vhere these unite we find that harmony is paramount, a state of affairs greatly to be desired. Unfortunately, however, the desired is not always attained. A subdued feeling of bitterness seems tu exist, at times very ap parent. This is easily exempli fied in the relations between the management of a college and the general student body. · The fac ulty, either collectively or indi vidually, are often made the target for unwarranted bitterness which often grows in to hatred. It therefore becomes a serio us problem, either from the sta nd point of the faculty o r that of the student body, to maintain h ar monious relations wh ich are so essential to the best inte rests o f both. Space will b e h>! re g ive n t o making pub lic a plan , wh ich has b een brought to t he not ice o f t he editor by a m e mb e r o f the fac ul ty, for in creas in g and p reserv in g a mica ble relation s bet ween t h e fa c ulty a nd student body of Otterbein.

Having thor oughly di scussed any matter which has arisen, the organization as a whole shall then express itself by vote or otherwise and the president shall communicate said expression to a representa tiv e of the faculty, who may or may not be present during the deliberations.
