Threatened Rain Causes Initiation to Be Postponed
ceremony for Freshman to Be Held in Stadium as Previously Planned
The freecomb initiation which was to have been held last evening has been postponed until next Thursday evening, Oct. 11, at 7:30. The program will be the same as planned for last night. All the speakers scheduled for last night can be present next Thursday.
The ceremony was postponed last night because authorities in charge feared that the threatening weather would keep away nearly half those who had been present, and probably have been impossible for several of the speakers to attend because of the damp and inclement weather. Those responsible for the success of the initiation felt that from every postponement of the event was wise.
Late yesterday afternoon it was found that many persons interested in the ceremony were of the opinion that the Auditorium was not an appropriate place for the ceremony. Consequently the idea of holding the initiation there was abandoned. The ceremony will be held in the Stadium on Saturday evening and in an event of bad weather it will again be reopened.

box as relay twister for Alexander
Hancock during his inswing, but was charged
to the former.
Mikell got his spitball post most of the Yankees innings for the rest of the season, but he did not time it, however. Pigras had shaken off his earlier hurriedness and had located the plate, which meant that St. Louis roaming was over.
