The Nome nugget., 1929-05-18

The comedy drama A Fortunate Calamity" by Charles E. Pendry and produced under the direction of Miss Helen Erik. played by the Nome High school students in the A. B. Hall last Saturday evening. was without doubt a brilliant suc- cess.
 The hall was filled with an ap- preciative audience and the play received with applause interspers- ed with laughter. Miss Erik is to be complimented for the develop .nent of the histronic talent ex- hibited as we'll as for the con ducting of the play.
 The singing by the Nome High school Glee Club, combined with the music of the orchestra, filled the hall with harmony before the play began, giving the audience a taste of the pleasure before them. and it is possible that hollywood olay have the fortune of having a new movie star whose birthplace was Nome.
 Wilfrid Nelly in his vocal solo received an enthuastic encore, and in his character Rastus Johnson created considerable merriment throughout the audience.
 The piano solos by Miss Baldwin and Miss Walsh were loudly ap- plauded by a music loving aud fence, and the chara cters thruor. are all entitled to the highesr encomiums.

Head Coach James Pixlee
and his assistants plan to
get down to the serious busi-
ness Of whipping a starting
George Washington U. eleven
into shape Monday. Begin
ming Monday, too, the scene
of future G.. w. practice ses-
sions shifts from Central Sta
dium to Potomac Park.
While some 25 to 80 men have
been going through drills for the
past two weeks on the Central field,
Pixlee has been so busy with details
of his duties as athletic director
that the main work OF conditioning
the athletes was left in the capable
hands of Leonard Walsh, Jean
Sexton and Babe" Connaughton,
his assistants. The candidates are
in fair physical shape on the whole,
for they have had no rough work
at all. However. the business Of
selecting the eleven men who will
make up the first.string team will
be left undone until several scrfm-
images are held next week.
Coach Pixlee intends getting out
the majority of freshmen players
Monday, too, and they and the var
sity will drill together. In this
fashion Pixlee believes he will be
laying the foundation for next years
teamN by inculeating his system into
both squads simultaneously. Pixlee
AYERS that he expects little success,
as success goes in the general mean
ing of the term. in wins and losses
from his varsity, but does hope to
lay the groundwork for 1880.
Walsh, COnnaughtOn and Sex
ton have spent the main pOr-
tiOn Of the preliminary prac-
tice sessions acquainting the
men with fundamentals, for the
squad Is green. just a few
simple plays have been handed
out and the players have been
shifted about indiscriminately i'm
an effort to find the most suit
able and capable talent for the
respective positions.
Maryland, Georgetown, Catholic
o., American y. and Gallaudet
squads are putting IN serious Icks
and their coaches? are driving them
along at fast pace. The three
former teams go into action a week
from tomorrow but the latter do
not open their season until Oct. 5.
Out at Maryland, Coach Byrd is
far from satisfied with the progress
Of his men. In recent workouts,
there has been a noticeable tendency
to gum up plays by the failure of
one or two players to get into the
play properly and, from now on,
Byrd plans pointing them for
smoothness and efficiency in this
department. Long signal drills and
one or two scrimmages next week
will bring about the desired results,
he believes.
The catholic U. outlook is i'm
proving with every workout and
Coach McAuliffe hopes to give
Boston College a tough afternoon
Of it when the Cardinals make their
appearance in Boston. George
Menke, a strong guard, has taken
it easily the last couple of days,
due to a wrenched shoulder. but
will be ready to get back into scrim-
mage Monday.
