George A. Post, president of the Rail- way Business Men's Association, have accented invitations to speak. There may be one more speaker, but not more than one more. So many Cor- nell men have gone into the railroad business that there will be a special table for them. Those not holding- annual passes may, however, be seat- ed at special tables also if they will inform the committee whether their inclinations lean toward Football, , Crew, Track, Sibley,' C.

Cash will be accept- ed that evening and seats provided for those who fail to get their applica- tions in, but it is urgently requested that applications reach the commit- tee by February 18. There will be good music, with singing led by the Glee Club table. Some original songs have been written for the occasion. Dinner tickets are five dollars each, and seats in the boxes, to which ladies may be invited, one dollar each.

ATHLETICS. Hockey. Cornell's hockey team virtually won the championship when it defeated the Columbia seven in the St. Nich- olas rink, New York City, last Friday evening, by a score of 4 to 0. Cor- nell still heads the league with a clean score and there are two more games to play—the Harvard-Yale and Dartmouth-Cornell contests, both of which will take place next Saturday, the one in New York and the other in Boston. Even if Dartmouth de- feats Cornell and Harvard beats Yale (which would give Cornell and Har- vard the same percentage), Cornell would be virtually champion, having already defeated Harvard. Columbia's team was on the de- fensive most of the game and Wash- burn, at goal, made some good stops. In the first half Vincent shot two goals and Magner one, and Magner scored Cornell's fourth tally early in the second half. LIBRARY TOWER FROM THE EAST.
