D. secured the second touch down as a result of the next play. During the balance of the half the ball was in M. A. C.'s possess;on and she ha i carried it to N. D.'s 3 yd. line when time was called. In spite of the fact that N. D. se cured two touchdowns in this half, M. A. C. played the better ball and gained more ground than did her opponents. T he points won were the results of mistakes at critical times. N. D. was held for downs time after time, and M. A. C. was within striking distance of their goal In the second half line four times. N. D.'s weight began to tell and they secured three more touchdowns, two of them in the last ten minutes of play. Most of their gains were made by Beacom, their 250 pound captain, by steady pounding and short gains. Up to the ten minutes M. A. C. gained as much ground as her opponents. N.

TUESDAY, OCT. JO, 1905. ON A C C O U NT of the amount of matter which came to the R E C O RD last week, it was not possi ble to publish the names and ad dresses of the '05 class as promised. We publish the same this week and shall be grateful to any who will fur nish addresses omitted or correct errors made in those given. THE N O T I CE concerning the M. A. C. Chorus was not in tentionally omitted last week as we did not know of the same until nearly the entire proof had been read. This is certainly an import ant phase of our work and worthy of the consideration of all w ho can possibly join. By becoming a mem ber of the class you not only a:d in the work of the chorus, but receive the benefit of a good training in vo cal music. T he credits are also to be thought of. SE V E R AL of our n ew sub scribers have called our atten tion to the fact that they have not received T HE R E C O RD the past two weeks. In all cases where names were given us we have found that the same had been placed on our mailing list and there is no reason why the paper should not have been received. It is no doubt due to the reprinting of the mailing list which is necessary after a number of new names have been added. We be lieve no trouble of this kind will occur from this time on, but should there be, those w ho fail to receive f ie paper will pleese report to Miss Earle, office, in the Secretary's where a paper may be had, and the case looked after.
