day evening.
Martinsburg High School and Shep-
herd College girls will engage in their
tsecsnd game of basketball for the sea-
son at 6.l5 on Friday evening.
The two basketball games in the col
lege gymnasium will probably be the
most interesting of the season, not
because of any safe predictions that
may be made concerning them, how
ever. The Blue Ridge players are
really Of college class, and no matter
how the contest goes the spectators
may be assured Of something worth
witnessing, while the Martinsburg and
college girls are both brilliant tossers

disappointing in only one thing-his
programs always seem short, yet the
clock proves that they are rather long.

tnat II is her intention to spend the

she returns.
Coasting parties. have been enjoyed

ing the past week. So far all have
escaped injury with the exception OF
Mrs. Mary Scanlon, who is forced TO

Miss Gertrude Muldoon and Miss
Fannie Trump. both OF the class OF
1918. are listed among the charter
members OF Delta Gamma, a national
sorority which will soon establish a
chapter at West Virginia University.
II. L. Snyder, Jr., Thomas Reed and
Chas. P. Harper, Shepherd College
graduates now in w. v. u, are on
the membership list OF the University
Press Club, which organization takes
the blame for perpetrating The Anal
thema on an unsuspecting public. To
qualify for the Press Club one must
have served as editor or manager OF
a high school or college paper, and
The Picket and Cohongoroota gave our
three boys the honor OF membership.

the end OF the first half II was 10 to
g.. Miss Viewer and Miss Crosse, cap
tains OF the tuo teams, scored most OF
the points, though every girl on the
floor played magnihcenfly. Misses
Ruth Clipp, Josephine Clipp, Anna
Keim, Mary Michael and Gladys
Feaeans were the girls led by Miss
Grose. Shepherd College doesn't wish
to furnish an alibi, but suggests that
possibly more points may be scored
by our team II their forwards do not
wholly abandon the overhead shot.
The 1922 rules allow two points for
field goal from an underhand shot
but only one for an overhead shot.
The rule is intended to give no undue
advantage to tai forward. but un-
less she is fifty per cent efficient with
the underhand shot II would seem that
the old style OF play should prove more
acceptable.
