Basketball Team Wins
‘Double Victory Again
Unblemished Record Retained
by Good Team-work and
Accurate Shooting
COLLIER AND BOYD STAR
~ (Specially contributed ‘by E. Jackson)
Last Saturday saw both basketball
teams again victorious as they played
their fifth games of the season. With
only three more games to go, we
hope they will keep up their good
playing.
Playing the Buccaneers’ first team,
Varsity showed the cleanesé and fast-
est game of the year, winning 59-32.
Collier and Boyd worked well to-
gether, getting in under the basket
without too many little passes. Boyd
was consistently good, putting in
nearly every try she made. ~She
seems this year to be able to shoot
from practically anywhere and is
therefore a hard person to guard. Al-
though Collier did not seem to get
shooting until the second half, her
passes during the first two ‘periods
were so well placed that Boyd was
able to convert them all to scores.
Goming-back-to-fornr in the last part
of the game, Collier ran up 20 points
while Boyd was making 15, and thus
they pulled Varsity far into the lead.
Longacre and Remington, ‘in. the
‘center, were kept very busy, and both
played.a good game. They do not
seem to’ have as much teamwork as
the others. Longacre has a tendency
to bounce the ball, even when Rem-
ington is free, and, as she quite often}
walks with the ball, it would seem a
good idea for her to pass more. Aside
from this, her playing Saturday was
very good. Remington, given quite
a bit of opposition by Paxson, was
able to outplay her and kept feeding
good passes to the:forwards. So far
this year her deep passes to Collier
under the basket have been working
quite well, and if they continue to do
so ‘the team will be assured of quite
a few goals in every game.
McCully was missing this week, but
her place was ably filled by Bowditch,
who has become much faster this
year, and it is now almost impossible |,
to get the ball past her, especially
on drop passes. Moore showed her
usual. good game. —
The Buccaneers were represented
by three of the All-American hockey
team. Townsend and Cadbury, at
forwards, made quite a few pretty
shots. Once Miss Townsend got her
eye in, she dropped in several from
the farthest corners. Schoff and Pax-
son, in the center, found the Long-
~ acre- Remington opposition rather
strenuous, but they kept them mov-
ing. Both Strebeigh and Church
played nice games at guard.
We hope the team will not let down,
but will wind up the season with a
clean slate. The next three games
should be extremely good, and any-
one who should chance to. see them
will find them worth it. ‘So far the
audiences have been just substitutes.
It seems. time that the rest of the
college turned out.

observing that“! is almost like a
vowel. Next came the spjrited Morn
of Agincourt speech, from ‘Henry
V,” and, hardest of all to recite, the
slow, sad piece on sleep from “Henry
IV.” Two scenes from “Hamlet’’—
“Now I-am alone” and the closet |
scene—were examples of very subtle |
characterization brought out by Mr.
King’s finely shaded diction without
any illusion of setting. The last two}
were Shylock’s speeches on his “3000 |
ducats” and “Revenge” from “The|
Merchant of Venice.” These, besides |
being studies of character, were ex-|
amples of tradition again, for Shy-
lock does not leave as much.room for
one’s. own interpretation. as..Hamlet=
Shylock, the old actors knew, is cast
in the Machiavellian heroic mold and
cag never be made into a dear, mis-
understood old gentleman.
. Mr. King’s clear dtetet his con-
vincing acting ability, Mis sense of
music, his understanding of character
and of the importance of blank verse
construction. gave us, besides the pure
pleasure of hearing Shakespeare
spoken, an understanding of the inter-
dependence of Shakespeare’s verse
and his subject.

LUXURIES!
FTEN a serious strain on the pa-
rental pocket-book—not only
while.college is in session but during
the summer. Here's an idea. It’s liter-
ally true this year that you can live in
Europe for less than you can at home.
Plenty of pensions or snug little inns in
fascinating spots in Europe will putyou
with three meals a day for $40 or
$50 a month. With the present rate of
exchange, your American dollar does
wonders. Whynotspendthesummer or
part ofitabroadand actually spend less
than if you wereat home? Anexcellent
opportunitytobrushupon yourFrench
—or your English history, or what not.
Getting over and back is not hard.
Just about $200 in Tourist Class via
White Star and Red Star Lines—on
some of the world’s finest ships. We'll
guarantee you a jolly time. Seems to
us that the summer in Europe might
be the means of a pleasant reduction
of the family budget and a glorious
time for you in the bargain.
If you agree—why not try the family
out on it. If you want more informa-
tion, write us for‘6ur Tousist Booklet
