Fans From Ottawa.

According to reports this morning,
n large delegation Of ottawa rootets
are planning on accompanying Smiths
team into the enemy territory TO VT
ness the encounter, and ii is a Ger
tainty that the usual host of LIP fans
will be on hand in an attempt to give
the 0ttawans the 'razz."
Feeling between the two schools
runs high due to the victory which
Fellows men won from the locals a
few weeks back at a game staged at
the local high school TomorrcW
night friendly relations between the
two schools will be put aside.
Plan Big Victory.
Smith and his men are planning on
? big victory over the La Sale tossers.
During the past week they have gone
through some stiff grilling and the
lads will hold their final drill before
the game tonight, when Coach Smith
issues his usual Friday afternoon cal
Advance tutoring will be given them
along the basket tossing line. while
Coach Smith will also devote consil
cradle OF his time to Goodman, center
on the team, who does Sill OF the
throwing from fouls. Goodman's In
ability to make the free throws in tn,
previous struggle with La Sale has
often since been mentioned as the
main reason why the red and white
team lost to Fellows gang In thar
game out of an even dozen chances
Goodman missed seven throws Had
he even made one more the outcome
of the game might have been differ
emit as La Sale only won by single
point, the final count being ii to Il n
their favor Goodman was way of
that night and missed the first fv2
chances
Today the high school mentor will
coach him in the art, as many fouls
will no doubt feature the game tom9r-
row.
Hasse, playing right forward for the
La Sale team, was the principal
scorer of the game and every point
made by him was via the free throw
method Hasse scored five free throws
out Of thirteen chances. La Sale only
scored three field goals during the
game. indicating that they are weak
along that line.
Should Smiths men work up thai
old Sighting spirit which they have
shown in recent games and knucRle
down to real business, the realization
of their ambition to win the contest
will be brought about in an easy man
ner Despite their defeat they dis,
PLAYED the fact that they were far su-
perior to the La Sale club and only
poor playing on their part will lose
the game for them tomorrow
To Use Same Lineups,
Both teams will probably use the
same lineups they did in the frs
clash For Ottawa Meckenstock and
Wiley will probably start as forwards.
Goodman will play center and Carey
and Antram will play the guard posi-
tiona However Smith viii have
plenty of substitutes on hands to en-
ter the fracas should they be called
upon. The lineups:

un.-h seem strange TO US today have
not changed from that very period
when they first made silk For in
stance, the needle OF the Chinese
compass points south, the guest of
honor is placed on the left OF the
host. and the Chinese women still
wear trousers.
The appearance of Chinese chill
dren, particularly in winter, is al
ways OF great interest 10 the trav-
eler. During the cold weather all
Chinese children look very fat-the
colder the day the fatter the child.
This comes from the peculiar Gus
tom employed by the Chinese to
keep warm.
Instead of changing the garments
OF children, as we do, from a light
fabric to a heavier one-from cot
ton TO wool-the Chinese mother
simply muluples her children's
clothing. She keeps adding layer
upon layer Of the same garments
which are worn in summer.
The child assumes an appearance
OF extraordinary fairness as the
weather grows colder. Some chill
dren, indeed, look like odd little
cOlored balls with twinkling eyes
just peeping out of every bit of
summer clothes they ever owned.
