Second Varsity Game
Monday afternoon the Second Vars-
ity upheld its unbeaten record by gain-
“tng a 2-0 victory over Rosemont Vars-
ity. Although the game was rather
slow, there was a noticeable amount
of team work.
The forward line was better in its
passing than Varsity was last Satur-
day. During the first half, the ball
rarely got far inside» Rosemont’s de-
fensive circle. For some reason the
forwards seemed incapable of shooting,
With an opening before them,~ they
would gently tap the ball towards the
goalie’s feet and generally it was inter-
cepted by the fullbacks.
In the second half, with Smith at
center forward, the .line got a little
faster and two goals were the result.
Throughout the game the passing
from-wing to inner and back-was good,
especially that of Bronson and Long-
acre. Although Longacre did ‘several
pretty dodges, she then lost control of
the ball. If she had passed rather than
dodged, the result probably would have
been better. Because of the good play-
ing of the fullbacks, Jones had prac-
tically no work.’ Bishop played a
steady, reliable gag, and Baer was
constantly feeding the forward. line
with-hard; stire passes.
The chief trouble seemed to be weak
shooting and rather constant playing
offside. These difficulties will not be
hard to overcome, and next week will
.- undoubtedly see a better game.
On the whole Captain Collins ‘and
her team are to be: congratulated and
a hopeful season for them can be
aronndoked for

ward the end that she ceased to feed
her left wing. Rothermel, playing
against her former clubmates, u8ed the
‘knowledge of stick work which she had
gained from them to great advantage.
It may be said that she and Ullom
‘were about the only/members. of the
Varsity that showed any stick. work.
Although Longa¢re seemed rather
weak, she stayed in her position beau-
tifully, never interfering with the cen-
tre forward. /If she can keep on her
feet Miss Grant may be able to develop
one good/inner.
In thé second half Varsity, - rein-
forced by five Juniors fresh from the
Kren¢h oral, succeeded in playing even
with the Cricket Club, each side get-
tig one goal. The ball was more
often down: in the Philadelphia de-
/ fensive zone. When it came down to-
wards the Bryn Mawr goal, it was.in-
variably returned by McCully, who
was the obvious star of the game,
being everywhere at the same minute
The forward line was perhaps—a little
better but it still has a long way to go.
Sanborn, at left wing, and Remington,
at centre, both played a fair game,-and
several times got in some nice shots.
Moore, ‘although pretty slow, was gen-
erally in her position, thus’ making
passing a great deal easier. Right in-
ner was about the weakest position: on
the team. — Both Totten and Crane,
when playing it, had a tendency. to
drop. back -and take the halfback’s
balls and then could not get up into
position again to receive passes. Tot-
ten seemed to play rather better at
wing ‘but on the whole-cher game was
ho
messy. -
was ‘Cheston, centre forward, who
scored three of her side’s goals. The
greatest difference in the teams was
able to intercept: most all the passes.
As a whole the game: was free from
fouls. While the work of the backs
was encouraging, ‘the forward line’s in-
ability to capitalize its opportunities
was rather a disappointment. . Perhaps,
however, they will get some drill in
stickwork and passing from now on,
which will unify them dnd produce a
better result in later games.
It is to be hoped that in the future
spectators will come to the games. The
turnout on Saturday was pitiful. There
was a mere handful of people and very
few of them had the.ability to cheer. It
is small wonder that the hockey teams
of late have: had ‘so little success, With
practically no backing.

in his side, he struggles against the ever-
present-fear--oflosing his—job...He_ finds
the new generation growing up about
him, including his own children, a trifle
alien and incomprehensible, but enjoys
his home, and adores his music. Mr.
Smeeth liked to feel himself an essential
part of “his firm,” for there alone he
belonged, and could lose himself in his
beloved numbers.
To Miss Matfield, the typist, every-
thing is “Foul, my dear, simply foul.”
A capable, moderately well educated sec-
retary, she lives in..Burpenfield, a-~wom-
en’s hotel, and comes each morning to
the office by Tube. Her cool and lofty
manner she assumes to hide from her-
self as well as from the outside world
that it was.“the endless cheating of ‘life
itself that frightened her and stifled her.”
Turgis, the usual sallow, pasty-faced em-
ployee, goes to the movies solely in an-
ticipation of sitting near a lovely girl,
nerves himself to grasp a feminine hand,

find her thirty“and crosseyed.-_ His - is

All this dull,and quiet life-is suddenly
galvanized by the appearance of Mr.
Golspié, big man of business, who re-
stores the tottering firm to equilibrium,
‘and for a short interval brings color, ex-
citement, and new promise to the lives
of the staff, only to disappear leaving
their utter ruin in his wake.
Perhaps the elements of real tragedy
are here, yet one cannot feel it entirely ;

Social Economy Discussion
In a meeting of some of the social
economy classes Monday morning Mr.
‘Rennie Smith continued his discussion
of the Labor Party and the British
economic situation. In answer to a
request from Dr. Fairchild, Mr. Smith
described the supporters of the British
Labor Party. It is, he said, distinctly
not a class party. Most of the sufy-
porters are, of course, laborers, . but
some are drawn from each class in the
country, with the result that the labor
movement in Great Britain is unlike
the nmiore Marxian movement on the
Continent.

‘Smith’s..own--constituency he is sup-
ported by teachers and ministers, as
well as workers, and other members of
the communit including a growing
class of employers. One of the fore-.
most contributions the party has. made
to British government is its representa-
tion of every phase of the economic life
of the country. Not an‘ industrial

conservative group and the Independ-

ideas of co-operation with other na-
tions have now spread through the
whole party and become a paft ofall

conflicts between the left wing and the
majority of the party: It is normal,
however, for the back-benchers, con-
sidering the future, to conflict with the
