The Ernest Gamble Concert Company
What harmony is this? My good
friends, bark!
Marvellous sweet music!
The Tempest,
The best musical attraction of the
season occurred last Friday evening
at the High School Auditorium, when
the Ernest Gamble Concert Company
honored Glasgow with a concert.
This highly talented concert COM
pany consisted of three members: Mr..
Ernest Gamble, basso cantante; Miss
Verna Page, Violinist, and Miss Aline
Kuhn, pianist.
Each member of the company prov
ed to he a trained artist of exception
al ability. The large audience receiv-
ed a word of appreciation from Mr..
Gamble for their interested and quiet
attention.
The program consisted of a variety
and diversity of selections, all of
which were encored.
When Miss Page played the old, old
song "Annie Laurie, dear to every
persons heart, the appreciation of
the audience knew no bounds and she
was encored again and again.
"A Perfect Day." sung by Mr.. Gam
BILE with violin and piano accompanist,
seemed to please the audience i'm
mensely as it was also encored with
insisting applause.
This concert closes the High School
Lyceum Course and it is hoped that
the public is we'll satisfied as the re-
suit of a winter full of a variety of
treats and entertainments. The stu
dents and instructors have labored
earnestly to be able to have such a
splendid series of high class enter
tainments come to Glasgow.
Now that the season is over, it
might be of public interest to know
how the finances Jared. Mr.. Williams
books show total receipts for the sea-
son of $384.75 with expenses of
$381.20, leaving the Associated Stu
dents a balance Of cash on hand am
ounting to $3.45. Even this very mo-
dest profit would not be in evidence
were it not for the balance from last
year.
While no one would be a bit mad to
have more of the filthy lucre to worry
about, the object of the lecture course
is not commercial, as most are aware.
Plans are being laid for a six-num-
Der course next year. Contracts have
already been entered into with three
attractions, and the remaining three
are in process of negotiation. Plan
to buy a season ticket.

MI. Shambaugh and Mr.. johnson,
the ~janitor force of the north side
schools were overheard last week,
while out walking about the High
School grounds. Mr.. Shambaugh
saw the shot lying on the ground and
asked Mr.. Johnson how far the boys
had been putting it. On being shown
the distance, he said, els that all the
farther they can throw it? Why I
car put it twice that far" He went
down and picked up the shot, but look
ed rather doubtful when he felt the
weight of it, expecting it to be about
as heavy as a base ball. He tried his
hand at it, however, and put it half as
far as the poorest HEAVIER in the high
school. Then he turned away and
said, Lets quit this. That thing
doesn't take any skill. Let's pole
vault" Without doubt the janitors
will have a team in the track meet
Saturday that will be a strong con-
tender for honors. With Mr.. John
son in the dashes and hurdles, Mr..
Shambaugh in the weights and %iavelin
and Mr.. Baynham drafted from the
south sled for the jumps and pole
vault, the Sophs will have to go some
to repeat.

INDEPENDENTS LAND VICTORY FROM READING EASTERN
ShevIin Fourth Star
to Die Within Decade

New York, Dec. 31.-The passing of
Thomas Lee Shevlin adds another
name to the list of famous Yale foot
ball linemen who have died in recent
years when apparently on the thresh-
old of business career as promising
and brilliant as their gridiron record
just few years back.
Four great Yale scrimmagers who
won their "Y" in play since 1900 have
died within the past decade-F. Cor
don Brown, Stillman. James j. Hogan
and SheVlin-all leaving football rec
ords that few Sridiron stars since the
beginning of intercollegiate play have
equaled and none can surpass.
This quartet of giant linemen played
game after game without injury dur
ing the entire four years of their
undergraduate lives, making the
mythical All American eleven with ease
and regularity which left no doubt as
TO their football ability. Brown and
Mogan were selected for four consecu-
tive seasons at guard or tackle, while
Shevlin made an end position three
out of his four college years, and Still
man two seasons at tackle.
AS captain Of the Yale team of 1905
Shevlin left a record that few gridiron
leaders can equal His team played
eleven games, scoring 22I points to its
opponents 4. The list included Wes-
leyan, Syracuse, Springfield, Holy
Cross. Penn State. West Point, Column
bia, Brown. Princeton and Harvard.
The Tiger team was the only one to
score on Yale that season. the final
result being Yale 2S, Princeton 4,
while a week later Harvard was de-
feated to 0.

Our Wealth Invites
Attack, Critic Says
Special 10 the Telegraph

Paris, Dec. SO.-In the natural
course of the development of the
United States her increasing wealth
will render her yearly more liable to
attack on the Pacific coast, says the

THE United States is doing a big
business now" he writes This rapid
enrichment will be one of the most
powerful world factors after the war.
The American republic is no longer
an importer of foreign capital. To-
morrow she will be exporting gold.
Thus she will have greater wealth
to defend and her increased arma-
ments are a logical necessity. She
must become the dominant country
of the American continent. Such
growth will give disquietude to the
British Australasian colonies and to
Japan, whose navy is intact and who
may we'll become Jealous of American

Thus we see from afar the posi-
bility of a new drama. The long fore

statement concerning the death of
Tom Shevlin. famous athlete and coach
of Yale:
"A sportsman, a leader, a friend.
always at the front with a dominant
and success. Into life as into football,
he carried that personality and it al
ways stood him in good stead. He
never faltered, but went straight ahead
with vigor that was compelling and
vet with a sound judgment that
brought its reward. Yale will miss
him. football and sport will miss him,
but above all a host of friends will
feel deep sense of personal loss that
nothing can replace"
Frank Hinkey, head coach of the
Yale eleven. who developed Shevlin
into one of the greatest of Yale ends,
paid the following tribute to his for
mer pupil:
He was among the greatest play
ers. the best coaches and the finest
captains who ever handled the pig
skin for Yale. He had an almost in
human power of instilling the fight
ing, do-or-die spirit into his men. Tom
was one of the whitest, squarest men I
ever gnew. There were few in New
Haven who knew him as / did, and
feel his loss keenly."
