Course in
Cheer. Leading

Lafayette, Ind. Oct. IS tAP)-
Leather lungs and a capacity for
backhand somersaults are less es-
sential. in a college yell leader than
the spark of leadership which en-
ables him to mold the mob into g
loyal unit, Prof. Preston II. Scott
thus lectures to Purdue Unfversitys
classes in cheer leading.
Scott is tutoring the embryo rooter
kings of the Boilermaker school on
mob psychology. The course in
cheer leading was offered this year
for the first time in any western con-
ference university. Fifty students
are enrolled. It's aim Is to develop
type of college yelling which will in,
spirs Purdue athletic teams to climb

from the cellar positions IN which
thew have reposed too consistently
in almost every major sport. :,
"A cheer leader Of the right type"
Scott says. "wields q vast power for
good over campus opinion. Human
beings collectively become unable to
listen to reason, clinging eagerly to
mass opinion. This mass opinion
may be started into action by few
rowdiss, by a tumble on the football
field, by anything that can claim at
tention.
"Yet = cheer leader with the
crowds confidence can check Its
rowdyism with q word. subdue its
panic, and change grumbling into
cheers for the man who fumbled. No
other phase OF college life IL so
dominated by a single individual"
Men who can qualify as cheer
leaders, he says, will find in later
life that they have developed ability
for leadership in other fields.

slider the proper timing OF the

probably the hardest thing In
golf TO bring about. When
achieved, however, the rhythm
of the stroke is unmistakable.
1t is surprising how much Of
the job the cIubhead, when
properly introduced, does.
Il is not brute force that
makes the clubhead do it's work
properly, and that Is why many

Inaccurate positioning Of the
clubhead at the moment Of i'm

These troubles usually come
when you tighten up, FOR the

THREE QUALIF
IN NATIONAL
TOURNEY
Frost Leads Way With 154,

Not So Far Behind

GARDEN CITY, L. L.. Aug. g.
Buried in the mud somewhere
around this city are the fond hopes
OF three young Washington public
links golfers. They were John @.
shorey, William Cox and Samuel
j.. Parks, and none could find the
skill In his hands sufficient to land
4. berth in the match play or the
fourth annual national public links
tournament.
Little Eddie Frost. from the Rock
Creek Park course, showed all
washington the way with beauti.
mi score Of 154 for the eighteen
holes. A. l.. Houghton, East Poto-
mac Park champion, came next with
167. and William Al. MCGUIRE just
managed to squeeze into the charm.
ed circle with 1853. The highest
qualifying score to get In was 159.
Frost had number of one putt
greens to thank for his score. He
used his mashie niblick with killing
effect and usually he had only a
short putt for his par. Houghton
also had q. number Of those one
INIT green's, while MCGUIRE found
lis putter just 20 much bad luck.
All the three are In ne upper
bracket OF the pairings. and should
both Houghton and Frost win their
matches today, they will play each
other. Mcclure Is higher UP in
the bracket, but he will also be
compelled to meet a Washingtonian
before he gets to the finals, IL he
does.
Failure Of Cox and Shorey TO
make the grade was surpristng.
Neither player had anv too much
liking for the course. and the hest
either could do and did was around
80, which il entirely too much for
the class Of competition developed
here.

Carleton Players
Guido Selves in
Breezy Farce

Innumerable ludicrouS situations,
combined with snappy song and
dance numbers makes Some Other
Night, Dearie" as presented by the
Henry Carleton Players one more
huge success added to the talented
company's already long list. AS US
uaI. the Coliseum was packed Thurs
day night and the appreciative noise
made by the large audience almost
rocked the building. Some other
Night, Dearie" is a farce of the high
est order, and the players easily as
sumed each difficult role with the
same cleverness that has characterlz-
ed their past productions.
The ever enjoyable Miss Vivian
Mayo is at her best in the part OF
Mary Jane Penneywise, with her Inc
yitable "That'n Be Extry," and wniie
her list Of "extrys" mounted into the
skys she was in her glory. Rlchard
Lloyd, we'll there should be no neeo
to say, that he was good, for hes al
ways that, but in the part or SOLO.
mon Short, he has just the role tnat
we like to see him in, and In MS dltty
about the wise old fly that can't pc
fooled he eclipses previous eHorts.

the last name is not necessary was
her usual winsome self in the part OF
Milly Matche, and the audience re-
ceived with high favor the new mem
ber If the cast Miss Jean Arden who
takes the part of Mrs. leanor Matche

and when Miss Peggy appears IN her
hovish rig, with her boyish song, and
swagrer she is irresistible. Robert
Hicks is seen as Cuthbert Claxton
while Mr.. Henry Carleton completes
the cast as Blount Barker the quiet
and peaceful" constable. :,
The action of the piece Is centereo
about the matrimonial difficulties IN
to which the mother and daughter
Matche. and the father and son Clax-
on find themselves. AS the play pro-
crosses the muddle becomes worse,
and worse until in the third act the
climax is reached, and the muddle
becomes Strengthened out. This IS
accomplished. however. with the IN
Producing of some comedy scenes
that are unexcelled for originality or
Mot. and cleverness of execution. The
efforts Of the quartet to establish
their exact relationship Is one OF the
best hits in the show, while the AMI
mai" scene is another one that had
the audience in fearful mirth. Our
Our advice as to the best way to cure
the blues is to see "Some Other Night

is no hope.
