Every boy feels the need Of such a
robe as this one. 1t is not alone a
bath robe, it can be made to serve a
double purpose and worn during the
hours of study or when reading is to be
enjoyed in the seclusion Of his own
room. 1t is comfortable robe and a
becoming robe and also it is very
simple robe and easy to make. There
are a variety of materials used for
garments of the sort just now and that
variety makes the pattern especially
interesting. Here, blue terry cloth is
trimmed with bands of white linen to
make smart effect buts there are
great many fannels, both cotton and
WOOL that are suitable and which are
woven in a variety of attractive
designs especially we'll suited to this
use while blankets can be cut up to
make good effects. Often the blankets
give very beautiful borders and very
beautiful colors. Among the new
materials being used for the purpose is
cotton eponge. 1t is attractive in
color trimmed with white and it is
quite sufficiently simple and severe to
be masculine. 1t is not as heavy as
the terry cloth, yet it gives something
of the same effect. If the robe is to
be used largely for lounging, velveteen
is good for cold weather wear and
velveteen could be lined with some
thin material, or corduroy could be

Harper Shifts Basketball Line
up for the Purdue
Game.

Appearance Of "Chet' Grant in a
basketball uniform yesterday after
noon resulted in new shift being
made in the lineup OF the Notre
Dame varsity by Coach Harper.
Capt. Joe McKenna. VINO played
at guard last season and who has
been holding down his old position
in the practice work this year, was
moved up to Fitzpatrick's forward
position and Grant went in at Nc
Kenna's guard.
Whether the new com bination
will be permanent, Coach Harper
prise fans were il to- remain SO. Nc
kenna is a good basket shot and,
for this reason. Harper thinks the
speedy captain will be a good man
at forward. Grant is naturally d
guard and plays 70 his best advan-
tage at that position. McDermOtt,
at the other forward position, APP
pears to have his job cinched, at
least for the time being, even though
ne is only a sophomore. The east
erner showed considerable class in
-tIlUlIldSeS dNd4tlS- the IL Sly last
season and his work to date this
year has been excellent. Dick
Daley, captain of the 1855 team,
is constantly improving at the cen
ter position despite the fact that
the job is new to him and it looks
as though he viii he a fixture there.
Tom King at the other guard is a
certainty
Just how the team viii line up at
the start Of the Purdue game Friday
night. Coach Harper has not an
nounced, but il appears likely that
capt McKenna and McDermott viii

and King and Grant at guards.

BOARD TO PICK ELEVEN
Selection one Day May be Left to a
Few Experts.

Many Of our best little sporting
experts believe the time is coming
when the picking of all-American
football teams will be left largely
with a few men. whose judgment in
the selection of all-American talent
viii be eminently fair and whose
word will be universally considered
final
There are generally a few foot
ball stars who stand out above the
rank and file i'm "a seasons time. but
aside from these men the selection
of the rest is largely matter of
taking a chance on the part of the
ones who select teams. Because of
the annual custom the writer chose
all-American teams this year. and
We believe that the selections made
were fair To the players named. Yet
in all probability a team almost
equally as strong could have been
chosen.
