CADETS SHOW CLASS
Wentworth Was Second in the cOIum.
bia Track Meet.

Dld lIdCk mcGt.
The Wentworth track team dished
up a surprise at Columbia Saturday
by easily taking second place in the
Missouri nter-scholastic meet. Cen.
trail High school of St. Louis was
first. Wentworth had 9 entries
while Central had 81. Central won
81 points and Wentworth q. Yeat-
and Mckinley High schools of St.
Louis tied for third with IA points
each.
On a technicality Anderson vas
ruled out of the hammer throw and
given second place in the shot put
after winning both events. This
made a difference of Z points in
Wentworth's score. THESE would not
have given the soldiers the meet,
but would would have brought them
within two points of the winners.
Wyatt was the star of the meet,
winning the 100 yard dash in 10 fat
and the 22O in % 1-5. He established
new nter-scholastic records in both
events. Mellor duplicated his per-
Torrance OF last year and took the
44O in 81 is, setting up another rec
ord. He drew the pole, jumped
ahead at the gun and LED ali the way

in the shot put. WEIGH was second
in the pole vault, clearing the bar
at 10 feet, 3 inches and Hoge took
third honors in the broad jump
Anfenger drew a poor place to start
from in the mile. He ran a plucky
race, but could not overcome his
handicap and finished fourth.
The Wentworth relay team wal
easily the best in the race: but alsc
suffered from hard luck. There wer,

Miss Davis, Recital.

The first violin recital for grad
uation at Central college for more
than three years was that Monday
evening given by Miss Grace Bernice
Davis in Murren auditorium. So,
being in itself m~eritorious, it in
terested and pleased those who
braved the lnclement weather in
order to attend. The program was
well selected and well arranged.
There was sufficient heavy music Of
the classical type to display the
pupils comprehension and enough of
the light pieces to give variety to
the program and hold the interest of
the listeners.
Following was the program:
1. Sonata A mai ....... T.. Handel
Andante
Allegro
Adagio
Allegro moderate
2 Alteration .......,.. Borowski
3. Ninth Concerto ..,... de Beriot
Allegro maestoso
Adagio
Rondo
4. Elegie ....., Bazzini
8. (al Berceuse. ........ Grieg
(bl Mcclure Field
tcl Mazurka ...... .... .~Jacobsohn
On her first entrance Miss Davis
was greeted with a hearty round of
applause The Handel sonata was OF
the severely classical type, the most
formal number on the program.
From the very beginning Miss Davis
made an excellent impression by her
perfect composure, her technical
skill ana her musical conception.
Her attack was clean and her tones
clear. The four movements of the
sonata were played without a stol
and were exceedingly well handled.
The second number was of the 70
; mantle type. full of sweet tones an,
: beautiful phrases. It's sentimen
was well brought out by the per
former and it pleased the audienc.

Probably the most familiar mum
