While the Entente Allies are Nib

North Sea to Switzerland, but are
making little or no serious attempts
to break through or 10 bring about n
eliminating struggle, the Teutonic
powers have taken another step in the
exploitation of the east.
The German advance through Mol
davia and Bessarabia has been unop-
posed. With Odessa safely in their
hands, the Teutons win have access
to vast stores of wheat which can be
transported overland or by sea to
points where it can be readily sped
into Aus. ria and Germany.
But the capture of Odessa will
mean something more-an advance
over the route to Persia and Afghan
stan and possibly india, which is to
be followed now that the British have
'evered the famous Berlin and Bag
dad route to the east.

found impression upon the assembly.
The American sector in Lorraine,
which now is definitely located east

BASKET BALL GAME.

On last Friday the fast Marietta
Team met the Washington Seminary
five in one of the most exciting games
Of the season, when the Marietta
Girls downed the Seminary Girls to
the tune of IL to A. From the first
toss up until the final whistle the
Seminary Girls fought like tigers but
the Marietta girls were invincible,
and allowed the visitors to shoot only
one field goal.
For the home team it seemed that
no one player starred for the whole
team played excellent ball, the guard
ing of Galley and Williams was un-
usually fine, while Gober and Boat
ner did the work of registering
points. For the visiting team Miss
Kearn did the best playing, and she
certainly gave Galley hard fight.
On Friday of this week the Mari
eta Girls meet the strong Fulton
Team of Atlanta and it is expected
that the EUR will fly, as this game
will decide, in measure, which will
be the 1918 champion. Marietta is
expected to carry off the honor.
The lineup last Friday in the Sem
mary game was as follows: For
wards: Lula Kemp and Audery Boat
ner; Guards: Muriel Williams and
Katherine Galley; Canter: Alice Co
Der.
The game was refereed by Lieu
tenant Andrews; Time: three IL min
ute periods; Goals. from field, Co.
Der 8; Boatner, 2; fouls, l.
Coach Guthrie deserves quite bit
of praise for this strong team, as he
seems to be about the only fellow
who can really make team; and
his work with the boys and girls is
greatly appreciated.
