BEREA VARSITY VS.. UNIVERSITY
OF LOUISVILLE
Saturday. February 2ist

One Of the best basketball games
played on the Berea floor this sea-
son was witnessed by a large crowd
Of students and spectators from
town. The game was Of interest
from beginning TO end. From the
first sound Of the referees whistle,
the Berea boys started in by max
ing two baskets in about five min
utes' playing. This brought forth
the applause Of the great crowd.
and with the wonderful music Of
our town boosters and rooters, our
nerves were kept on edge.
The Berea ruutcrs showed more
spirit in this game than in any
other game which was played this
season on the local floor. Thanks
TO our town rOoters and sympa-
thizers, who stirred up our ag-
grcgation ana thus lifted the
spirits Of our boys 10 such an ex-
tent, that they were able TO win
their first game Of the season.
The Berea Varsity won by a
score Of 26 TO 49, and here again
we must acknowledge the won
derful playing Of Van Wrinkle
and Fields, who shot the baskets
for the Berea team. Van Wrinkle
shot seven field baskets and two
fouls and Fields shot five field
baskets. Clark was a great relief
TO our boys in that he was able 10
play the game with a large boil on
his ankle and showed a great deal
Of grit and good spirit in persisting
10 stay i'm the game as long as pos
sible. He was finally replaced by
Hill in the last ten minutes Of play
ing in the last half Of the game
Neil did excellent work as guard,
and it amused the spectators very
much TO notice his lightning-like
rapidity in covering his man al
every stage Of the game. Hill, the
other guard. was not in the game
long enough 20 get warmed up, lmt|
nevertheless, he showed some work
that was cOmmeniable. Stephen
son. who was center for the Berea
team, was able TO outjump the
center at almost every
stage Of the game. BY his agrees
'iveness in cooperating with Fields
and Van Wrinkle, these two boys
were able TO shoot a good number
If baskets.
Butler and Cartee who were for
wards for the visiting team, were
last on the floor and were able 10
shoot the baskets for their team.
But the spirit Of the spectators was
,chind the Beraa boys and it was
almost impossible TO lose.

AN APPRECIATION

The managing editor wishes to
commend the news items OF the
Vocational department this week.
That is the kind OF news that we
want from all departments. Miss
Baldwin, the English teacher in
that department has asked her class
TO write items and hand them TO
her. This is a most excellent idea.
Nothing is better practice in Eng
lish from several angles than just
this work. We know something
about how poorly many persons
write. This is splendid exercise in
punctuation, capitalization, and
spelling. Why not all English
teachers in Berea follow the plan
OF Miss Baldwin, Come on every
week, Vocational department.

the l7-year old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Calico, of Gainesville.
Lillian was student Of the Normal
department she had only been in
school about two weeks when she
was taken to the hospital with mea-
slcs which later developed into
pneumonia and caused her death.
Although she had been here a short
time she had made many friends
and every one had learned TO love
her.
Lillian was a devoted Christian
girl, and departed this life with a
bright look on her face. She will
he missed in her home, and in her
Church: for she was an active work
er in her Sunday-school. But we
are assured that our loss is her
gain.
Her life with us was short, but
now she will live the long life where
there is no death pain or tears.
She leaves father, mother,
brothers and sisters and a host Of
friends. The body was taken TO her
home near Gainesville, KY, for
burial.
As students and faculty we wish IN

COLLEGE AND NORMAL GAME

The basketball season always
starts with each one Of the five de-
pariments Of our institution being
represented by team. During the
season by a process OF elimination,
two teams Of the departments are
victorious. These two teams then
play a series Of three games in
which the team that has won two
out of the three becomes the cham
pi0n team OF The institution. The
members Of this winning team are
then entitled 10 wear the athletic
"B' of the college. The College
and the Normal teams were the vic
tors this year. !
The first game OF the series was
played by the College and Normal
teams Monday afternoon at 200
o'clock, February %. II was a
holly contested game with honors
almost even up TO the last few min
uies Of playing. II was a question
for some time which Of these teams
would really be victOrs. College
finally won by score OF 10 10 II.
The College team made the first
score and kept the lead in the first
half by a score Of 10 20 4. This,
however, did not discourage the
Normal boys who came back strong
in the second half. The players on
both sides showed pretty good
sportsmanship and the game was

FORD'S GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

The distinguished actor Geoage Arliss
in new play.by Booth Harrington. A
drama of real Americanism
"POLDEKIN"
The week of March 18th, at Fo!d s
will be eventful in the appearance of the
distinguished actor George Ariiss "A
Poldkin new play of the day.
The play one of deep interest, of a
vital subject of the times, is the creation
of one of the foremost writer's o. the de-
cade-Booth Harrington, and will be
ably presented by George Arliss in Polde-
kin to whom the American stage owes
many successes.
In Poldekin, Harrington shows real
Americanism, and points out the fallacy
of misguided radicals who strive to de-
stroy it.
The play is in four acts, the first be-
ing in Russia, the others America.
Poldekin, the hero, is more intellectual
than any of the others of the secret
group to which he belongs in Russia.
Mr.. Arliss in the title role is ideally
artistic and convincing, at first he wal
lows in his revolutionary emotions, until
his acute reasoning powers come to his
rescue and he realizes that red revolu
ton is not the best thing for civilization
Poldekin discovers that the working
class in America pray to God veneratf
the traditions of Washington and LING
oln, own Liberty bonds and vote for thu
candidates of the great political parties
Then he renounces Bolshevism.
The play whilst dramatic in the ex
IRENE, is full of up to date question
dealt with in mastery touch of Tarking
ton and brought out by the wonderful
art of Mr.. Arliss.

Changes At 7. H. S.

During the past several weeks and up
to the present, numerous things have
occurred at our High School building,
which has caused more or less trouble,
annoyance, regrets, pleasures, etc.
To begin with, the Janitor, Mr.. Chas.
Knott. after serving for period of five
years, resigned his position. To fill his
place, MIR. Edgar Fogle was secured
About the time the change of Janitorship
was made a new lot Of coal was received
and according to Mr.. Knott it was en-
tirely different from that which he ai
been using. Formerly three furnaces kept
the building warm, but then five failed
to produce the required heat. Trouble
to keep the rooms warm has since been
frequent, the latest being Monday OF
this week when most of the pupils were
sent home.
Next came the resignation of Miss M.
Kathryn Robb who accepted positionin
the Girls High School in Frederick. Her
leaving caused regrets among the faculty
and Students. To fill this vacant posi-
ton, the services OF Rev. Chas. u. Snail
er were secured, and he entered the fac.
ulty March LIST.
During the past week Mr.. L. ID. Craw-
ford contracted severe cold which 30
affected his throat that he ''lost his
voice" and was unable to be at school
for some days.
Miss Linnie McGuigan. teacher of the
Primary school contracted severe cold,
lagrippe possibly Flu, and has been off
duty since March 4th. Her condition
has improved.
Many children have severe colds, and
are kept at home. all of which tends to
disturb the regular routine work de-
manded from teachers and pupils.

The Sick And Injured.

Carolyn, oldest daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Luther Rouzer of this place, who
was injured about six weeks ago while
coasting, is reported to be in critical
condition in Baltimore hospital. The
broken one in her leg failed to knit
properly and an operation was necessary.
Mrs. J. VIM. Payne has been ill with
grippe the past week.
Miss Helen Root and Miss Dorothy
Beachley, High School students, are un-
der care of their physicians due to colds
and sore throat.
Rev. Rob't Huebener formerly of this
place, now of Dundurn, Canada is re
covering from an attack of Flu.

WHY Colds Are Dangerous.

You are often told 10 beware of a
cold," but why? We will tell you. Every
cold weakens the lungs, lowers the vital
ity and paves the way for the more seri-
oGs diseases. People who contract pneu-
monia first take cold. TIE longer cold
hangs on, the greater the danger. espe-
cially from the germ diseases, as a cold
prepares the system for the reception
and development of the germs of con-
sumption. diphtheria, scarlet fever, and
whooping cough. The quicker you get
rid of your cold. the less the danger of
contracting one of these diseases. Cham
berlain Cough Remed3 has great rep
utation as a cure for colds and can be
depended upon. 1t is pleasant to take.

Raise MARRIAGE License,

Senator Wolfe's bill increasing the
cost of marriage licenses from 81 to 81
passed the Senate without debate or op-
position. At the time the cost was re-
duced to 81 the argument advanced was
that it was the duty of the State to
make marrying popular. The explana-
ton now offered is that as every other
luxury and necessity is more expensive
and the people are making more money,
there is no reason why marriages should
not keep UP with the financial procession,
