The real feature of the after- noon’s performance was the stellar pitching of Simpson, who from the time he spiked the rubber till the end of the game, allowed not a hit. Be~ sides furnishing his team with air— tight hurling, be contributed two hits which were responsible for one of the runs which Armour collected. He had his book ball working in master- i'ul style, and with it be fed the Vis— itors twelve strikeouts, allowing only four men to reach first by virtue of passes. A better estimate of his toil can be obtained by noticing that; his teammates could muster only four assists, which resulted in putouts at first. Another sparkling bit of base— ball was uncorked by Robin, the dash— ing first baseman, when he speared a liner and tagged first for a double play, unassisted. After Umpire Glicl: pronounced the field in fit condition to play, the game was on. Donnelly opened up by yielding to Simpson’s slants and struck out. Martin paraded, and Wst'ole second. three balls and was thrown out at 5: first when Link dropped the third strike. Hennigan followed suit on three more balls. Armour got going early on Reichle’s hit in the first, but his ef— forts came to naught when he was caught of? second after Gent’s sac- rifice. Robin flied out to deep cen- ter to and the inning. Reichle Scores First Run Simpson laid a siege on the teach- ers and struck out the next three men that faced him. Armour did not fare much better in the second, but got two men on base. King duplicat- ed what he did in the second by fan- ning Bower, Donnelly, and Martin in order. . in the third, Link came through with a substantial single. Reichle tapped the first ball to Martin, who forced Link at second. Gent came through with a clout to right field but was thrown out by the right— fielder, Bower. This advanced Reichle to second who was now in a position (Continued on page 4, column 2) German Philosophers .4312 D1". Schergcr To Fellowship Dr, George L. Scherger, Professor of History and Political Science, has recently received the distinguished honor of being invited to a fellow membership in the German Philo~ sophical Society. Invitations to mem- bership in this Society are very rare— ly received by Americans, and then only upon special occasions. D1".

Dr. Scherger has been a pioneer in the field of popular philosophy, as well as in the history of civilization, and is in fact credited with being1r the originator of the term, “History of Civilization,” first using it in con» noction with the lectures he has been giving at the Institute for more than a SCOT?
