after a poor season last year.
Catholic University gave the dope
a rude twist by holding Fordha m
University TO a I0-to-0 score. when
the advance dope was that the New
Workers would make a cake walk
OF the entertainment. Gotham
papers were impressed with "the
powerful Washington team. Ford
ham made one touchdown and
field goal. but beyond that
could do no scoring. The slippery
field may have had some bearing on
the result, but the fact stands out
that Phil Robb has developed a
much better team than was ex-
pected at this, stage OF the season.
Gallaudet's opening game with
Franklin and Marshall at Lancas-
ter resulted in a l4-to-O defeat,
which is not at all discouraginE
when it is considered that the Ken
dali Green team had only one week
Of practice before the battle. Coach
Hughes men played a stubborn
game with flashes of offensive
strength and may cause trouble for
the rest of their opponents.
Curly Byrd's Marylanders jour
neyed to Syracuse with the knowl-
edge that they would meet a heavier
and more powerful team. keyed up
with the idea of avenging lasr
years defeat That Meehan's men
would win was 20 be expected. but

reason to be pleased with the re-

Is happy in the fact that one OF his
chief backfield problems appears to
be solved. Bill Kenyon's transfer
from end to fdllback was an emer-
gency measure as a result of the
injury of "Pauly" Byrne, former
Gonzaga' star. The veteran flank
man did such damaging line pluns-
ing that he will probably remain
in the backfeId for the remainder
of the season.
Kenyon is not a heavyweight AZ

 It made her feel a great deal bet ter to hear him say it. No matter how much she might wish for long CT time to prepare. the opening nle ht came before she realized it. She stood in her dressing room with the maid hooking up her gown for the first act and Gossman pacing tiger ishly, as was his fashion when nerv- ous.
 Through a peep hole in the curtain the house could be seen rapidly fill ing with choice audience. There was buzz of curiosity and anticipa ton. People had all read so much about the famous actress that they were anxious to see her.

 Jimmy, no matter what happens, would like to feel that you--are with me-" she murmured.
 It seemed a strange thing for the great Figlan to say, with tears in her eyes--but she did say 1t, and Jimmy's emotion overcame him.
 Am I with you?" he gasped. Well. If anything should happen to you l wouldn't want to live, that's all. You are the sweetest, the most wonder ful woman"
 His love shone from his eyes. Pau line felt herself going straight into his arms. That would never do. She must win out first, and she could never do that if she became un- nerved.

 "Overture!" they heard the boy cry.

 A curious something welled up In Dicks heart He did not care for Eve-his heart was all with Mary Drew-but Mary had no use for such an organ as a heart.
 And this girl seemed to care for him. She was looking at him with her whole soul in her eyes.
