GOOD ONLY REGULAR
EXPECTED MISSING IN
HOLY CROSS GAME

The Colby squad is still in some
what crippled condition as Lowary
and Good are out. Coach McAuliffe
held practice this afternoon on Seav-
ern field with all the men out who
started the game last Saturday with
the exception of these two men.
Enholme was back in the lineup to-
day. This is the first time he has
been out this week.
The practice this afternoon was
the hardest given the squad this
week. 1t started with limbering up
exercises. then there was a short
time given to handling the ball.
Signal drill was the next in order. A
great deal of time was passed on this
because Coach McAuliffe wants them
to know them perfectly. Following
signal practice the varsity held
scrimmage with the second and third
who worked on the different Holy
Cross plays. Besides these plays
they tried forward passing in order
to strengthen the ends and backs in
their defence in case an over head
game is played. After this more
signal drill was had. The varsity
took the ball and the scrubs lined
up against them for their second
scrimmage. This was composed
mainly Of opening holes through
which the backs made many great
gains.
Coach McAuliffe is Of the opinion
that he will be able to start Lowery
at tackle again Saturday. His Shout
der is much improved. This leaves
only one man on the injured list. He
is doubtful If Good will be able to

After bountiful supper served on
Wednesday evening at the All Souls
Unitarian church yestry. Rev. Dill
worth Lupton of Cleveland, Ohio,
gave very enlightening address on
the subject, THE Message and Mis-
sion Of the Unitarian Church" There
was a large attendance of the church
members and the splendid address
was greatly appreciated by all. The
speaker was introduced by Chief
Justice Leslie C. Cornish, president
of the board of trustees of the church
Rev. Mr.. Lupton pointed out that
in tracing religion through history
from its origin two quite distinct
lines are seen. One is a religion Of
creed OF cereponial or a religion Of
outward ceremony. The other is a
religion, not of creed or ceremonial.
but Of a method of life. The latter
was what Jesus stood for-religion
as matter of life and mercy. Uni
tarianism is symboiical of something
vital in religious life.
That the foundation of our nation
is In our churches and our religion.
