The freshman team is anxious for itf return game with the Cal- vin Reserves, and the forthcoming tilt promises to be packed with ac* tkm. Yesterday morning, the Hope Affirmative debating team, composed of Clark Pol- ing and Arthur Ter Keurst, met the Western State Teachers team before a crowd of 1,850 people in the Audi- torium of Central High School at Kalamazoo. Mr. Hooker and Mr. Faunce rep- resented Western State. In a double shift of opinion bal- lot ,the State team was given the decision, 28-24. The judges were the members of a class in public speech at Central High School. Both parties agreed that it was one of the best debates en- gaged in this season. * i Joseph Auslander lectured in Grand Rapids last week on "Poetry —Bread or Cake?" This compara- tively young poet is author of half a dozen volumes, but he is best known as co-author with Frank Ernest Hill of "The Winged Horse Anthology" and author of "Letters to Women." In his lecture, he proved himself equally at home with the poetical works of masters of a past day and those of the most modem laurel seekers. Browning's "Prospice" founds as much sympathy and understanding in his hands as his own intense verse. The poet, wishing to throw some light on his idea of the nature of poetry, cited Emily Dickinson's definition as a possible standard. That most original of New Eng- landers said that if a book "made her whole body so cold no fire could ever warm it, or if a book made her feel physically as if the top df her head were taken off, she knew this to be poetry." Auslander also mentioned a little girl at one of his lectures who said that, in comparison to prose being straight- lined, "lines of poetry wiggled and also bring about a.wiggling inside of the reader." After these pref- atory lights the poet launched into his own splendid verse. Early in Auslander's literary career he was taken under the wing of Amy Lowell. She convinced him that he could not do justice to sub- jects alien to his own experience. This insight has made .for a fresh- ness and strength that character- izes all of the poet's later vMffc.

Addison-—There was a momen-tary hush in the "Oggle" house when President Edgar De Graaf called the regular meeting of the Addisons to order. H^ appointed Martin Kloosterman chorister and Kenneth Hicks, pianist, to lead the group in singing songs, sad, pop-ular and gay. When silence could again be maintained, Mr. Ter Keurst led devotions.

The Lenten season was recog-nized in the well arranged review of Brown's book, "These Twelve" given by Archie Kawalk. The con-tents were such as to arouse lively discussion among the boys. Arthur Ter Keurst then gave an argu-mentative semi-political speech con-cerning the feasability of compul-sory unemployment insurance in the United States. Kenneth Hicks played the "Polish Dance" by Scharwinka and "At Morning" by Godard, on the piano. A short but intensive business meeting closed the evening's activities.

Emersonian—A short business meeting was held by the Emer-sonian Society Thursday evening. Before the meeting, several Emer-sonians went out in the country to see a fire.

John Van Den Belt has been ill during the past two weeks. Harry K. Smith has accepted a job with the famous, J. P. Morgan Com-' pany. He will begin his work a f te r graduation in the spring.

Fraternal—"We of the jury do! hereby pronounce the defendant Not Guilty because of insufficient evidence." With those words, the defendant, Gordon Alexander, ' on trial for the murder of Madame X, whose body was found buried in the sands of the beach, burst into tears and cried hysterically, say-ing he knew that the jury would acquit him.

Thursday, March 5, the Frater House was the scene of the trial of Gordon Alexander versus the State. Irving Decker was the State's Attorney and Dutch Pop-pink the Attorney for the Defense. The judge was the Hon. Justin yan Der Kolk, who carried on the trial in a most judicial fashion. The trial was remarkable and inter-

Alethea—Last Thursday the re-cently elected officers of Alethea entertained the res t of t he society a t a progressive dinner. The f ru i t cocktail was served in the society room in Van Raalte Hall. Helen Barre and Leonora Zonnebelt fur -nished the mental cocktail in the form of some side-splitting humor. Being thus warmed up, the Ale-theans sallied for th to visit An-netta McGilvra fo r the meat course. Here Vivian Veldman read a paper on "Tlfe History of Egypt ian Mu-

Sibylline—The Sibylline Sorority held a meeting Thursday night a t seven o'clock. When they entered ttye room, they found a wonderful transformation had taken place. The floor had been painted and waxed, the rug, the curtains and draperies, the chair-backs, and even the walls had been cleaned until everything fairly shone. A charm-ing little table supplied the need for a .place on which to set the radio and a new gong was pre-sented to the society. Af te r a short business meeting^ the Sibs were taken by. the new girls to "The Little Freshman Theatre." After being properly seated, "Micide" Essenburg, impersonating Graham Mc Namee, reviewed the Pathe

Seven to one," the main feature of the evening's ' entertainment, was next presented. It was ably directed by Lois Ketel and the All Star cast was composed of Lotus Schaafsma, Edith De Young, Ruth Van Dyke, Alice Clark, Mildred Es-senburg, Estella Karsten, Ruth Winstrom and Frances Learned.

Af te r attending the theatre, we were taken to the Sibyl Cabaret to I "Nibble at the Sibyl." The new Sibyl chorus furnished the enter-tainment.

Annetta McGilvra entertained with two delightful vocal solos. But there was still another surprise in store. This time it was at Polly Hondelink's home, where the "demi-tasse" was served. Af ter late leave had been obtained from Mrs. Dur-fee, a play, "Romance in C" was presented by El |a Boschker, Ger-trude Van Zee, Lillian Smies, Helen

Barre and Leonora Zonnebelt. It was received with so much favor that a repeat performance was ne-cessary. After at tempting to in-terpret the College Song more cor-rectly, the Voorheesites made a dash for the dorm, feeling much the better as a result of the exercise and fun of the evening.

Delphi—Last Wednesday af ter -noon, Delphi pledges R. Mulder,

i L. Hollebrands, H. reion and M. i Den Herder were hostesses at the regular bi-weekly tea held in the society room.

The Delphi Literary Society held its regular weekly meeting Thurs-day evening. The program consist-ed of old fashions contrasted with those of modern times. The meet-ing opened with a song service led by Pledges J. Walvoord and H. Pelon. Devotions were in charge of Delphian Weidner. "Then and Now" by Pledge L. Hollebrands was in the form of a news report relating important events of past years as well as present. Pledge E. Boughter favored the society with a piano solo taken from one uf the old masters. Delphian Well-ing, in the personage of Et ta Kett, compared her present rules to

i former ones. Delphian L. Kieft, all dressed up to fit her part, sang some old fashioned melodies, a f te r

esting to the spectators in that it 1 which Pledges H. Pelon and A.

The trial brought out the slum-bering possibilities that lie in Slow Decker, the dashing young

prosecuting attorney. • • •

I hi Kappa Alpha—Fifteen min-utes of merry-making with songs put the Cosmopolitan Society in the right humor to enjoy their weekly meeting Thursday night. After the singing, Nick Burgraff gave a lecture on "Industrial In-surance." Immediately following this, Alton Alday treated the so-ciety with a large' box of home-made candy which was sent to him by some unknown lassie in New York state.' - • — - V

Harms Bloemer accompanied the college orator, Gerald Huenink, to Alma, where he won third place in an oratorical contest Friday night. Roger Vo^Jcuil announces the addi-tion of his "new" Chevrolet to the Voorhees taxicab service company.

The Cosmos basketball team un-derwent several stiff practice ses-sions during the last few weeks under the guidance of Capthin MLos" Van der Werf.

Jackson held up the modern age with some present day songs. Delphians R. Geerlings and E. Hyma brought the program to a fitting closc with fitting clothes in a style show.

The Delphi pledges are to have their formal initiation Wednesday afternoon.

• • » l)orian—Friday evening the Do-

rians were entertained by the new members of the society. The meet-ing was opened with devotions led by Hazel dick.

Next, the girls were taken back to their childhood days through the dramatization of the fa i ry tale, "Goldilocks and the Three Bears."

Sorosis—A Japanese garden scene, Japanese lanterns s t rung over the room, curios placed here and there, a heavy scent of incense in the air, and even beautiful Jap-anese girls—no wonder the Soros-ites thought, when they entered their society room Thursday night, that they had somehow missed their step, and landed right in the midst of Japan.

The Junior Sorosites, in their turn of class programs, chose a Japanese theme and carried it out most cleverly in every phase of the meeting, even to the scripture story Which was told by Lois De Pree, the chairman of the program.

The first scene from "San Fan Laud" was a solo from a charming Japanese maiden, Elizabeth Arendshorst. "Willow Whispers," the story of a Japanese plate, was told by Elizabeth Winter. The third scene, Japanese Love Songs, showed a coquetish maiden and a lad flirting, but never able to reach each other because she was just a picture on a fan, and he was on a box of tea. Springtime in Japan must be very romantic according to Vera Van Duren, a Japanese maiden, and Iva Klerk, a Yankee sailor. Edith Drescher as the Jap-anese policeman added the final touch of humor to this scene. A Japanese dance was portrayed by Ruth Van Dyke and Marie Kleis. As a climax to the program, glor-ified rice and "opium" was served, and heartily enjoyed by all the girls.

MHOW TO PLAY BRIDGE BY C O N T R A C T *

1. The game of contract is played with two decks of cards. In one deck the comer of the six of diamonds is bent. As a result, every time a hand is dealt, Mrs. West says: "Ah-ha! Look who has the six of diamonds."

2. The game is played by five players. Pour si t t ing a t each side of a square table covered with cir-cular stains, and the remaining player, who is not allowed to touch the cards, going from comer to comer , raising his eyebrows and grunting. Prom time to time he may be requested to crack some ice or empty an ash tray. This doesn't count fo r either side.

3. The table shall be set up so tha t the light will be satisfactory to, a t least one of the players. The wire of the bridge lamps shall be so arranged tha t anyone rising from his chair will fall flat on his face.

4. Before commencing to play, a Mr. Brown will show the other players how to tear a deck of cards in half .

6. Af te r everyone is seated, four of the players shall cut for partners (to see who shall fight with who). A f t e r the cut is completed, all four players will arise and sit in differ-ent chairs. Af t e r they a r e reseated, one of the players will get up for a cushion, another will go for a score pad, a third will hunt for a pencil, and the fourth will s tar t a game of

* 1

solitaire. 6. The four players will now

venture opinions as to who cut the highest card. The player with the loudest voice wins and deals.

7. Af ter each player (except the rover) has received thirteen cards:

a. The player a t the left of the dealer says, "who did this"

b. The player opposite the deal-er says, "Are you playing the club convention?"

c. The player a t the right of the dealer says, "Who dealt this lousy mess?"

d. The dealer discovers that he has only twelve cards and calls "Misdeal!"

8. Af ter ^ new deal has beeiii completed, a window may be closed by one of the players if (a) the window is open; or, the window may be opened if (b) the window is closed; or if two players disagree on' whether the window shall re-main opened or closed, it may be (c) opened- and closed if it is al-ready closed, or (d) it may be closed and opened, if it is already open.

9. A player is said to be "vul-i nerable" if he pays any attention to I the explanation of how the dummy would have played the hand if she'd gotten the bid. If the dummy says, "That reminds me of a hand I held a t Fanny Farmer 's last Tueday," she's a double dummy.

a. The score pad is hidden un-der a pillow.

b. The player a t the lef t of the scorer scowls a t his partner and says, "Are we playing fo r money or matches?"

c. The player opposite the scor-er hunts fo r the score pad, and find-ing it, erases the last figures and puts higher ones in their place

d. The player a t the right of the scorer asks fo r a separate sheet of paper and pencil, so she can keep a separate score all by herself.

11. The dummy is not allowed to touch the cards, but may tell the other players about her t r ip to the West Indies during the play.

12. Drinks should be served a f t e r the third rubber. Following which a derby hat is brought in and placed seven feet f rom a couch. The player gett ing most cards in the hat is accused of having played the game before, and the fifth man and the three players go home.

"IF AND AN"

Everyone knows how the jolly pastime of "Ups-a-Daisy" was in-vented. How Tom O'Hara bounced a tot on his knee while Tim O'Hara looked up names of flowers . . . . How a f t e r bouncing the baby 32,612 times, they found tha t Daisy was the flower he most enjoyed being bounced to. The O'Haras are fam-ous, but only now have we learned the name of the baby. Next Thurs-day will be observed as Tommy Phipps Day, throughout the nurse-ries of the land.

Credit for inventing that fine old phrase, "Quicker than you can say Jack Robinson" has always gone to Jack Robinson of London. Last June, however, Robinson admitted tha t he had stolen the idea from an Eskimo, the original wording being, "Quicker than you can say liijiwik liiijiblong. To make amends, a special Arctic expedition has been sent to the north. They ferreted out Mr. liiijiblong and bestowed on him the world's appreciation.

How many of us, while enjoying the sport of laughing up our sleeve, ever gave a thought to Tinchcape Gillingsworthy, the man who made

it possible? Before Gillingsworthy invented sleeve-laughing, hundreds of necks were broken annually by people t ry ing to laugh down their shirtbacks or into the cuffs of their pants. The new Gillingsworthy memorial a t Canajoharie will show graphically jus t how much we owe to this emancipator's genius.

"ODDS AND ENDS"

She — I'm afra id my jewels will have to go, if you don't get a job soon.

He — Cheer up, dear! It 's always darkest before the pawn.

She breezed into a hardware store, met the affable clerk and chirped:

"How much are mouse t raps?" "Three for a dime, lady." "How much for two?" "Why not take three?" "Because I've only seen two

mice."

"How do you always manage to have such good beef?"

"I select a good butcher and then stand by him."

"You mean you give him all your t rade?"

"Nd, I mean I stand by him while he's cutting the meat."

Friend — "Did the poet take it hard when Alice rejected him?"

Editor's Daughter — "Hard ! I hear the poor fellow threw himself into the waste-basket."

Freshmen Lose Close Fight to

Alma Team LEAD VISITING FROSH UNTIL

LAST MINUTE OF PLAY

The stage was all set last Friday night for a preliminary game be-tween the Frosh and the Fraternal Society, but thirty minutes before the game the Alma Frosh arrived and so, as an act of courtesy the Frosh played the Alma men.

Coach Schouten started a new combination and since this caught Alma off their feet the frosh gath-ered a lead of 12-5 at the end of the first quarter. Alma did a little basket shooting herself during the quarter and at the half the score stood 15-12 still in favor of the Frosh.

The second half had not pro-ceeded two minutes before the score was knotted at fifteen all. From this point on both teams played classy basketball and both teams fought stubbornly. At the end of the third quarter the score was still tie, this time at twenty all, and at the blowing of the final whistle the score stood 30-32 in favor of the visitors.

The scoring was well divided among all the fellows of both teams. An Alma fellow said a f te r the game that this was the best game they had played all season. Those who witnessed the contest will surely say that our Frosh played a game that no college would be ashamed of.

Fraters Defeat Emersonians to Make Triple Tie

EMERSONIANS, KNICKS AND FRATERS HAVE EACH /

ONE LOSS

Next Few Weeks Will Sec Close Fight for Championship

John Vanden Belt has been ill for over a week with an attack of the flu.

The Fra te rs and the Emerson-ians played an exciting game on Monday evening, March second. That game was the first that the Emersonians have lost this season. As a result, Emersonian no longer leads the inter-society league.

The Fra ters started the game off with a lively attack which gave them a six point lead. George Van Peursem was going strong and took more than his share of the points. Thus encouraged, the Fraters were invincible. Neither the regulars nor the substitutes of the Emersonian team could stop them. Grin Ens-field, who is usually lucky with long shots, lost his eye. Captain Juist and the coach, Ver Strate, tried every possible combination, but without success. They didn't coop-erate as they did in previous games. Ensfteld and Cupery went out on fouls in the second which only added to their troubles. The Fra-ters took advantage of the situa-tion and piled up a fine lead. The final score was 25-14, in favor of the Fraters .

The remaining games will cer-tainly be of interest because of the close run for the championship. There is now a triple tie among the Emersonians, Knickerbockers, and the Fraters . The tie will be played off in several hotly contested games during the next few weeks.

that he would be a candidate for Mayor in opposition to William Hale Thompson. It seems to me it would be more fun to be coroner in Chicago. — One meets so many interesting people.

"Cap'n, suh," he announced, "mah shoes am too big fo' me."

"You'll have to make the best of it," answered the captain. "Plenty of men have shoes that don't quite fit."

"Don't quite f i t ! " ejaculated In-digo. "If you says 'tenshun, cap'n. Ah comes to 'tenshun.. D« n if yo' says to right about face, Ah right about faces, but mah shoes stay at ' tenshun. Don't quite fit? Huh!"
