All Hands Are Sorry
Al Hoya Cage Tilt

Lote RoIly Falling, 6. U.
Is Resigned to Waiting
Until Next Season

It must be "be kind to basket ball
players" week at Georgetown. Stu
dents are asked kindly to refrain
from hissing or heaving old shoes
and pebbles at them In public, re-
mindful that but for a merciful fate
they, too. might have been addicted
to the game.
The Hoyas dropped another one
hast night at Riverdale, bowling to
De Paul, 34-29, but there were no
harsh words in the dressing room
when firing ceased. TOO bad-real
sad, but wait'u next year" was the
patter's pattern as the little coterie
Of players, coaches, graduate man
ayers, newspapermen and hangers
on mulled over the Hoyas' straitened
circumstances.
Everybody Is Sad.
"It's tough on the boys" whis-
pered one, but I feel sorry for Rip
Coach Elmer Ripley; he's such a
good guy-and a swell coach. too.

that's the way-get a guy who'll get
them anything they want and they
can't steal q game for him. Too

II feel sorry for Buddy O'Grady, {"
says another. Smart kid like that
playing his legs of for nothing. Too
bad he won't be around next year
when this freshman team comes up."
"It's hard on the boys" says
Schwagel. "They simply haven't
been able to get going and it's eating
out their hearts"
De Paul Had Staying Power.
How about them suffering

promptly getting the buns exitP
De Paul led by 1913 margin at
the half and had the staying power
necessary to ward of Georgetown
late drive that brought the Hoyas
within three points of tying the
score. Bob Wozny, whose II points
topped the scoring, seemed to be
around whenever the Demons needed
a bucket, whereas Georgetown had
miserable fortune on the hoop
missing innumerable lay-ups as well
as pot shots.

Sugar-Thrif+
Rules Given
ByU.S.D.A.

Saving sugar, and getting the ut
most out of the sugar allowance IS
the objective these days OF every
homemaker.
The u. S. department OF agrlcul-
ture has listed some general rules,
through its bureau of home eco
Monies. which illustrates the best
and most satisfactory use OF sugar
substitutes.
Sugar-thrift rules to remember
are:
Serve cooked fruits hot to enjoy
their fullest flavor and sweetness.
Save syrup from canned fruits to
sweeten other fruit, PUDDING sauces,
or drink. A pinch of salt increases
the sWeetening power Of sugar IN
cooked food. Be sure all sugar IS
completely dissolved to get its fun
sweetness.
The following table gives the
SWeetening power OF dlf1ertAt
syrups, of honey, and CT maple
sugar, as compared with refined
white sugar:
Sweetness equal to one cup OF re
fined white sugar-Maple sugar, l
cup; maple syrup, | cup; honey, l
cup; sorghum syrup, y cups cane
syrup. Il cups; corn syrup, : cups.
Best rules to follow in shifting
recipes frcm refined white sugar to
other sWeetenerS are:
Cakes and Cookies: Honey-Re-
place sugar with honey, cup for
cup, but use one-half the quantity
of other liquid called for. That is,
if the original recipe called for l
cup sugar and / cup milk, use
cup honey and z cup milk. Other
ingredients remain the same.
Corn. cane or maple Syrups; Re
place sugar with syrup, measure for
measure and reduce liquid only one
third Cookies made with corn and
cane syrup are not as sweet as sugar
cookies.
Sorghum syrup: Follow the same
rule as with the other syrups but
reduce the baking powder called for
in the original recipe Use Il tea
spoon of soda for every cup of sor-
ghum. This quantity of soda and
sorghum has leavening power equal
to teaspoons CT baking powder
Breads and mullins: These call
for little sWeetening anyway so
there's no problem in shifting from
sugar to syrup, or to whatever
sweetener is available Replace one
with any other in exactly the
quantity called fer by the original
recipe.
Jams. Jellies, Preserves: Use
honey in place of half the sugar
called for in the original recipe and
increase the cooking time a little to
allow for the extra liquid to evap-
crate. Or place up to one-fourth
the sugar with corn syrup.
Canning fruit; The best way to
get around the sugar situation is
to can fruit without any sweetea-
ing and add sweetening just before
serving.

UP FROM GRAVE

At this point I'll have to go
back and explain more. One of
Marchs great great grandfathers
had been responsible for the burn
ing of a witch and the planting Of
an oak tree on her grave. Thus
conventionally imprisoned, the lady
had fretted for a couple of CEN
turtles until released by a luck" bolt
Of lightning. Now she was out for
vengeance on the descendant of
her prosecutor and her plan is to
break up the wedding and beWitch
March into falling in love with her
so that she can break his heart
into suitably small pieces. The pic
ture is titled Il Married a Witch,
and is adapted from The Pas
sionate Witch" which mostly was
written by the late Thorne Smith.
So at the beginning of this Sc
quence, Witch Veronica Lake and
her perpetually pie-eyed sorcerer-
