Over on Staten Island on Thursday, T. H. H. lost to Curtis in the first P. S. A. L. game. It was one of those of the "heart disease" order. The Harris men started out finely, playing good ball throughout the game until the last inning, when Dudensing tried to throw the ball into the ocean. Newton pitched fine ball and at no time could the Curtis boys touch him. "Doc" also got two clean hits. Up to the ninth inning, the game was ours. But in the last half the trouble started. Bailey, with one out, was given a base on balls. On Maloy's infield hit, Bailey went out at second. Then Ripley rolled one to Nagle, who threw the ball without stopping to think where it was going, with the consequence of a tie score and a man on third. Here Tappan got up and drove the ball to deep left, where Dudensing made a fine catch. Alas! he threw the ball about a mile over Diver's head, and the game was over. As a team, however, our work was consistent, and the boys have still a lot of "stick-to-it" left. The Inter-Class Swimming Meet has been approved, and final arrangements are being made. Entries can be filed with Rogers. There will be the following events: 2550 and 100-yard races, and a 200 foot race for a relay of four men. The committee is trying to obtain the use of the tank, so that there will be some chance for practice before the meet. On May 15 the Swimming team is going to Philadelphia to take part in the meet for the Championship of the Middle and Eastern States. Our boys are entered in every event except the plunge. A fine trophy is to be presented to the winning team. iest wishes for success go with the men.

MOSES, Proprietor, 1626 AMSTERDAM AVE., (Opposite the College) THE NEW YO LENOX AND A Weekly Journal COLLEGE OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK Vol. IV. T HE announcement that the Board of Trustees The sessions of the Night College will begin on October 4th, the prerequisite for admission being a High School education or its equivalent. Those who cannot present a High School or Regent's diploma, or the certificate of the College Entrance Examination Board will be obliged to pass the City College entrance examination. Next fall it is planned to offer only the courses of the Freshman year, but if a sufficient number of qualified students apply for an advanced course it will be offered upon the special approval of the Board of Trustees. The number of students for the first year has been limited to two hundred and fifty, and no course will be given unless there are at least twenty accepted applicants. The evening courses will be patterned exactly after those given in the day sessions each study being allotted the same number of hours per week, covering the same ground and followed by like examinations. The courses will, however, continue every night of the week except Sunday for thirty-two weeks, and no student will be permitted to take more than nine credit hours of work per week. Arrangements have been made with the Public Libraries on 135th and 145th Streets to keep upon their shelves a complete supply of the reference books needed. Besides the regular courses aiming at the baccalaureate degree, a number of electives are offered to those interested in special subjects. Applicants for ad 1 mission will assemble in Townsend Harris Hall at 8 P. M. on May 25th, or on September 14th. Entrance examinations will be held during the week of September 20th. Joint Debate. On account of the crowding of events on the collegiate calendar the date for this year's Joint Debate between Clis and Phreno has been set for a much later date than is usual. The debaters will meet in a friendly battle on June 21 in Townsend Harris Hall. Clionia's team consists of Messrs. Applebaum, Kramer and Shatteles with Urdang as alternate. Phrenocosnia's champions are Messrs. Schmalhausen, Pollock and Weiser; Zinner being the alternate. The question is "Resolved, that we favor the open shop in the United States." In charge of the arrangements is a committee consisting of Messrs. Kaltman, Mayer and Langert. The twentieth anniversary reunion of Class of '89 was held at the Plaza Hotel on the evening of May 7th. In point of attendance and enthusiasm, the banquet of '89 must be classed among the most successful of the many class dinners held recently. Of the fifty men of this class who graduated, forty attended the reunion; of the remainder, three are dead, and the others found it impossible to be present on account of illness or residence far from the city. Professor Horne presided, and he read a pamphlet in which he had recorded the history of each man since 1889. The Class decided to present a memorial to the College, and a considerable fund ws gathered for this purpose. The success of the College's Extension Courses to teachers has been so marked, that the Board of Education has decided to extend the benefit of some of our lecture courses to the teachers and general public in Brooklyn. Professor Horne has accepted Dr. Leipziger's invitation for next year, and he will deliver his series of excellent lectures on "The Novel" in the Brooklyn Public Library. Dr. Guthrie's course on "American History" will probably be also offered. To-day at 1 P. M. The Faculty and Student Body will assemble in the Great Hall where exercises will be held in celebration of Arbitration Day. The Hon. Joseph H. Choate will address the meeting. During the last two weeks, the saloon question has been an inexhaustable topic of conversation among our many public-spirited Juniors not because of any altruistic desire to correct intemperance evils, it must be confessed, but rather on account of the more practical necessity of preparing for the Public Speaking Department examination debate on that subject. The lecture delivered in Room 315 last Friday afternoon was thus very popular, for Mr. F. H. Whittin, Secretary of the Committee of Fourteen, spoke there in explanation of the recommendations of the Committee with regard to the Sunday opening of saloons. This was the first lecture on political questions conducted by the Civic Club. A Bright Demonstration. Last Friday afternoon a number of interested students attended the demonstration given by representatives of the Aluminum Cooking Utensil Co. held in Room 128. The desirable features of aluminum ware were clearly set forth and many valuable pointers given in the art of salesmanship. It is expected that an even larger number will attend the demonstration Friday. Professor Horne spoke at the closing exercises of the Harlem Evening High School on May 12th, introducing the Night College to the graduates.
