Mrs. 7. Charming Moore. president
of the club, asked the guests to re-

mitteeman from New York and eXecu-

to deliver his address.
Hines Immediately launched into an
attack on GOV. Smith, and declared
the latter's presidential aspirations
were the motivating force behind his
desire to secure the defeat of the
pending four-yeaT-term-forg governors
amendment, as well as his stand on
water power development, taxation
ard other State issues.
Hilles said there was no reason for
the talk about a third term" for

'There is no more danger Of Calvin
Coolidge becoming a monarchist than
there is of his becoming chatterboX,"
Hilles declared.
Mrs. McCormicks address had to do
with the organizing Of woman voters
along partisan lines. Organization of
woman voters through clubs, in which
they will receive the necessary politi-
cal training, she said. seemed the most
expedient way of educating them in

ing player is two jumps ahead, and
those playing against him don't know
just how to organize their opposition.
His own teammates, on the other
hand, soon become aware OF his ca
pacity for leadership and watch his
moves closely. They anticipate his
strategy. The example helps them
to speed up their thinking accord
inely.
Just how does such thinking fit
into basket bali? In this way, the
boy with eyes wide open does not
have to think about receiving and
passing a ball. When that is going
on his thoughts are two passes ahead
and his mind automatically telegraphs
his limbs to carry him to that place.
In the meantime, his thinking facul-
ties again are scheming to get free so
that he might receive pass or to
dash in and break up a toss between
opponents.
Thus it is easily seen that the boy
with an active mind, always alert, il
primarily responsible for success in
teamwork.

BALL
BY SOL METER.

Whatever the offense, whether short
pass or long pass or the effective COM
bination mixed with the dribble, the
main thing to stress Ia that it should
be so balanced as to shift instantly
into a strong defensive position
should the opponents intercept the
ball.
Coach Saalwaechter's Cornell quin-
tet, champions of the Midwest Collegi.
ate Conference, and strong contender
this season, proved this conclusively
last year Cornell won II of its Il
conference tests. The reason was her
well balanced offense, one that be-
came a defense in the twinkling of an
eye when the ball was lost. This
was true in her title game with Carrie
ton, team that led Ill the end of
the first half, but was defeated 33
to 2s.
Cornell made the mistake of driving
in four men on offense. AS Garlic
tons guards were strong. they often
secured the ball, relaying it by long
passes TO their two forwards, who laid
back with but one Cornell man cover
ing them. This fault was corrected
between halves and Cornell then
ran wild.

pacity house of $500 spectators to-
night saw Cleveland beat Washington
for the second straight time in an
American Basket Ball League game.
The score was 26 to "a. Cleveland
now leads the league by two and one
half games.
Placing on exhibit the most impreg.
nable defense ever formed on local
court, Cleveland limited Washington
to a single field goal in the first half
and but two during the entire game.
Many fouls were called against Cleve'
land, however, giving Washington a
fine chance to keep in the game.
Saunders of Washington missed six
free tries, but sent IL through the
hoop.
Cleveland grabbed an early lead,
being ahead, Is to 9, at half time, but
the constant calling of fouls gave
Washington the opportunity to close
the margin.
With three minutes left to play and
Cleveland holding a 4-point lead, Ken.
nedy grabbed the ball and shot
pretty goal from the side lines. Cleve.
land then took the ball and retained
it until the end OF the game.
