But this served to increase rather than
to diminish the intensity of the game.
At precisely 11.24:the tension was at its
peak. At that moment no pass on either
_side could be effected, shins collided with
sinister sticks, and play was concentrated
in.the center of the field. A rapid de-
nouement ensued immediately with a
‘score by Tuttle and a dramatic rush and
bull’e eye by Townsend just as time was
being called. This brought the final score
to the grand total of 6-4.

the victors, ee .
Throughout the game most of the play-
ing was in our territory. Early in the
first half, Buchanan .scored ‘two goals
for the faculty. Crenshaw and Wells
then chalked up one apiece. The second
half started more promégsmgly for the
Hash, who for a time threatened the
opponent’s ‘goal, but again Buchanan got
the ball and was down the field for ‘an-
other point. *Then Miller subbing for
Collins, made the undergraduate’s single
score. Faculty’s final two points were
due to Buchanan.
Playirig on both sides was ‘sloppy. The
huddle system prevailed. Four or five
players; often all of one team, were usually
on the ball at once. The faculty players
in following the ball continually forgot
their positions. Right wing was once
seen playing left inside, while the for-
wards and half backs were hopelessly
confused, - Buchanan starred on the for-
ward line, and Fieser’s hard hitting
gained mich ground. Lewis played a
fine defensive game.
The undergraduates made some pretty
passes but lacked thé dare-devil spirit
which brought the faculty out ahead. The
game was chiefly remarkable for the
friendly informality which reached its
height when the faculty — got
cold and changed sides.
The line-up was:
Hash—A. Saunders, ’27; K. Collins,
29; E. Brodie, 27; M. Brown, ’29; B.
Coney, ’30; H. Parker, ’27; J. Huddeston,

SENIORS DEFEAT JUNIORS, -3-0
The Seniors continued their triumphal
march towards the championship by beat-
ing the Juniors, 3-0 on Monday. It was a
scrappy, hard-fought game not too well
played by either sida but the Senior
team was decisively the best. Both sides
lacked tearn-work and hit the ball wildly
without bothering to see if there was
anyone free to take a »pass. The ball
was kept too much in the centre and the
wings didn’t get a fair chance to “do their
stuff.”
Brodie and Winchester pulled off fine
individual runs down the field, both
culminating its goals. Seeley and Walker
were as excellent as usual, Miller seemed
rather incompetent to be playing on first
team. Why don’t the first team captains
try out more second team players? They
often look just as good if not better and
would inject some fresh life into the first
teams.
’28 got awfully muddled up in itself,

Forty
“At Forty” the housewife in some sections
of Europe wears a black bonnet to signify
the end of her youth. A ‘quaint custom—you
say—but it usually. signifies a fact. Heavy
tasks, indoors and out, have made her old—
at forty.
Of all the uses of electricity in America, the
most important are those which release the
woman from physical drudgery. Electricity -
carries water, clothes, cleans carpets,
cooks the family’s food—better and quicker
than could be done by hand.
A trip to town or an hour’s rest in the after-
noon pays a woman dividends in g ood health
“at forty years.” And what is youth but that?
