Interest has developed in the posi-
bility of meeting between Won Elm

met in the championship and may not
this time. First they need to qualify
and then they face the danger of being
put out by some other early round

recent Walker Cup foursomes.
On present form, Jones and Won Elm
are strong favorites to reach the final
round just as they Gid in 1924 and

Eliminating basket ball from the ele-
mentary school schedule does not mean
that girls of the seventh and eighth
grade class will lack opportunity to play
the game on the Fairgrounds, Miss
Parker points out. 1t will simply give
more time to the development of the

abounding in humorous situations and
with an interesting love theme woven
through it. Beery takes the part of
a dud detective and Hatton plays dual
roles; those Of a wise-cracking news
paper reporter and Of savage gang
leader. The stars do not clown or
wear ludicrous costumes in this pic
