A game of football was played Saturday morning by two rival teams of Betas. The winning of one team was due to ourselves at quarter, Shiras and Ray Fletcher as halfs, and Ingalls as left guard. And although we were out-numbered nine to seven, we found no difficulty in making a number of touch-downs on the opposing side and completely shutting them out. Spellman, Withington and Watson did good work, but their wind was short owing to the excessive use of "larup."
A game of football was played by the rival boarding clubs "Catagory Gulch" and the "German Club" Saturday morning. The German Club was defeated 14 to o. The Germans gave their signals in Dutch, while "The Cats" used the names of their table properties as slogans, the "corn, beef and cabbage" cris cross being very effective in going around the end, while "larup and cookies" was interpreted between center and guard. The signals were composed by Hassig and Morrison, and were very effective. The Gulch Club are ready to uphold the belt at any time.
T. N. E. Initiation and Cookeyshine.

After the initiation the members sat down to a very elaborate spread, served by Weideman, and listened to songs, anecdotes and stories, and some excellent toasts. Mr. Mitchell was toast master, and everybody enjoyed hearing "The Phi Gams" by an active member, "The Sigma Chis" by W. Snow, "The Phi Psis" by Wynn, and we enjoyed hearing ourself in "The Betas."
