Hilltoppers Have But Little
Trouble Taking Game
From George Washing
ton by 34-to-l8 Count.
Flavin Away Off.
By JACK HAAS.

Befofc one of the largest crowds
Zen at a basketball contest this
season, Georgetown University
set back George Washington Uni
versity to the tune OF "a to IS.
The game was played in the spa
cious gym" at the Y. NJ. c. A,
which is the home court Of the
Hatchetites. The running track,
which is the seating space for
spectators, was filled to overflow
ing with supporters of both quints,
the fair sex being in the majority.
Game Is slow.
The game was not well played by
either quint. as it was dreadfully
slow, especially during the first ses-
sIon- 1t became a little faster in the
second period. but instead of working
the ball up for a close shot, everyone
in the game tried to drop them in
from distance. and as only six field
seals were registered in the latter
half, the long ones were invariably
ITnissed.
Bfffi bang, boom, The gong sounded
and the game was off. George Wash
tngton started off like winners, Gil
man scoring two field goals, one long
one. and one when he got loose from
Georgetown's guard from directly un-
DER the basket. He Set another point
from the fifteen-foot mark before
Freddy Fees started to drop them in
from the same spot. tossing in five
one pointers in quick succession.
Then OConnen batted one in on a fol-
low-up. and from then out the Hill
toppers were never headed.
Lonschak Makes First.
Lonschak received a pass from
Flayin in the center of the floor, and
seeing no one to pass it to. took a
long chance and through the hoop
she Topped. Gilman then shot his
third and last field goal in the first
period. after which the Hilltoppers
dropped them in from all angles.
the half ending in their favor, %
to IL.
The second half started off with
a rush and both teams rushed the
ball down the floor only to be
stopped about twenty feet from the
goal, where a chance was taken on
a long one In this session George
Washington had any number of
chances and they were easy ones di-
rectly under the basket but they
failed to make them count. the
game ending 81 to IS, in favor of
Georgetown
FInvin Away on.
Flavin, who has been playing such
"a great game on the offense for
Georgetown. appeared to be way off
as he could not register his usual
long ones. and only annexed one
double pointer during the entire
contest. Fees. he OF the eagle eye,
showed that he is in a class by
himself when it comes to dropping
them in from the foul mark, as
out of thirteen tries, he landed ten
of them.
Every time George Washington
brought the ball up the floor it was
feed to Gilman, upon whom the
Hatchetites depended to drop them
in. This little fellow is a splendid
basketball player. but he has too
much of a load to carry. He was
here. there. and everywhere on the
court. Daily and Boteler put up a
great game on the defense.

No merrier medium for laughter has ever been created than the famous comic opera, 'Ruddigore." Its wit comes across the footlights in never-ending flashes. its tunes sparkle merriiy in so- los and choruses and its satire is keen and sustained throughout the merry length of two long acts. It expresses the genius of Gilbert and Sullivan at the top not of their arts. and its the Boston op- era Company's greatest triumph with a record New York run behind IL
 In "Ruddigore" the famous Gilbert has written a libretto and lyrics which are a continuous burlesque of melodrznla.
