Russiun BoIIet In

styles of any ballet company in the
history of the art, the Ballet Thea.
ire offers ballet in this vital Rus.
sian form, at the same time restor-
ing the pre-Russian classics like
"Giselle" and adding the robust new
works of young American choreo-
graphers, composers, and designers
The highest development of ballet
is to be found only in permanent
company, playing the year round,
as does the Ballet Theatre Especial
ly in this highly collaborated art,
artists working in close cooperation
over a long period Of time, under
a single directing hand, produce in
flnitely more satisfactory results
than groups hastily assembled for a
few sporadic performances; exact
ly as group of symphony musicians
working together week in and week
out under a single conductorial baton
can be depended upon to give more
highly sensitized performance than
those who are only occasionally to
play together under conductors how
ever talented.
The enormous Russian Ballet re-
pertoire as presented by Ballet
Theatre under impresario Hurok's
guidance derives its inspiration from
many sources: the classical tradition
Of the Italian school, as in "Swar
Lake., Princess Aurora; trans
formed into lyric poetry as in Les
Sylphides' and "Giselle";; from the
full fount of Russian folklore as ir
"Petrouchka", THE Firebird", and
Fair at Sorochinsk; from contem.
porary America, BILLY the Kid"

Holmes County Basketball
Tournament


Tournament
The Holmes County Basketball
Tournament held at the Tchula
School Gym all day Friday, Febru-
ary %, was an enjoyable occasion
and a great success. All the games
were close, hard fought battles, with
good playing by all, and superb
playing by some. Coach Bob Patter.
son of Durant, recently returned
veteran, by his excellent refereeine
did much to make the Tournamen,
a success. The sportsmanship dis
played by all participants was truly
remarkable.
The Tchula girls winning a close
and exciting game with Coxburg
girls were crowned County Cham
pions. Every basket meant a vital
point in the last quarter with the
score tied. The Tchula girls sustain
ed such terrific barrage winning by
score OF IL to Is.
This is the final appearance Of
two seasoned senior players, Evelyn
Kazar and Polly Heard, forwards on
local court. The Lexington boys over
came stubborn defence put up by
the Goodman aggregation to win
through to victory.
The outstanding players of the
girls teams were Browning West,
forward; Buck and Carnathan, Tchu-
la forwards; Gwin and Shields,
Tchula guards; Henson and Hocutt,
Coxburg forwards; while Farmer at
forward and Jackson at guard did
outstanding duty for the Lexington
girls. Kazar, Hearn Taylor and Wor-
rell of the Tchula team deserve hon.

Hope OF O Relief

Governor Cherry's quick action on
the petition from residents of the
Winter Park Gardens area for flood
relief encourages hope that conditions
which should have been corrected long
ago will not be further neglected.
In a letter to the Highway Com
mission, Mr.. Cherry i~nstructs J. A.
Bridger, highway commissioner, to go
over the ground with his chief engineer
and determine where the responsibility
rests. If it is jointly borne by the state
and the county, Mr.. Bridger is instruct
ed to confer with the Board of County
Commissioners.
The inference is that wherever the
responsibility rests, the state highway
commission will be expected to see that
necessary remedial measures are taken.
There is an impression widely held
that the backing up of waters in the
area is due to failure to install neces-
sary drainage bitches or culverts when
the Wrightsville highway was built.
If Mr.. Bridger finds this to be the fact,
it will become the state commissions
duty to correct the fault. If the flood
ing is not due to this cause, it will still
be the commissions obligation to see
that the county takes whatever steps
are needed.
One thing is certain. The residents
of the area are entitled to relief. The
fact that a two-mile square area is
inundated in every heavy rain is con-
trary to all rules of community health
and comfort

Day By Day
THE BREAK-THROUGH
BY WILLIAM T.. ELLIS


Amidst the turmoil and confusion
of these times, a great company
of faith-filled souls are looking for
a breakthrough of new understand
ing and life. They think that God
is readying the world for a new
demonstration of Himself and His
beneficent will. Overshadowing
all of our days confusion, broods
the omnipotent Spirit of God.
Worldwide understanding and
good will, justice, liberty and
brotherhood, are on the way. The
very bigness of our present prob
lens is turning mems thoughts
from pettiness and pride and per-
sonal profit to the eternal stand
ards revealed in the Bible. If we
really want to have the new world
of which so many millions dream,
it can come only by an acceptance
of the laws of the Eternal.
The great break-through, wherein
the Lord will have His way, is
surely coming. 1t may be in mass
form, but it will be routed through
Individual hearts. That means YOU
and me.
How long, o Lord, how long?"
AS those who wait for the morn
ing we look for a new manifesto
lion OF Thyself In human hearts.
Amen.

new job the dynamic energy which he
displayed as mayor of New York, he
seems also to have retained some of the
less winning qualities of temperament
which also marked his long term in
office.
For instance, he recently warned a.
congressman, during a broadcast. that
this legislator and his colleagues must
appropriate 100000 1000 to UNRRA
"graciously." He threatened to quit IF
there is any haggling, any bitterness,
any controversy or bad taste over this
appropriations"
Surely if there is any lack of con-
gressional graciousness over this an
preparation, it will not be directed at
Mr.. LaGuardia personally. And even
more surely, Mr.. LaGuardia's rather
petty offer to resign if the tones of con-
gressional debate did not please him
will neither brighten Congress nor solve
any difficulties that may be encounter
ed in the UNRRA matter.
Mr.. LaGuardia cannot overestimate
the Importance of the tremendous and
Hateful job which he has tackled, and
which he has seemed to do SO well ur
to now. He can vastly overestimate his
personal Importance in that job.

1t is obvious that an overwhelm-
ing number of subjects create Won
derment within me. So many, in
fact, I feel very futile about the
whole business.
But there's one subject that, on
its face, seems to be so simple that
a tWo-year-old could fathom. But
I can't. Make your own concur
sions there.
I'm really not trying to tantalize
you by withholding for this long
the subject from you, but 1 just
got to mulling over it and wonder
ing why l couldn't understand it.
In a conversation with a special
friend of mine who has been con-
demned to two weeks longer in
the hospital than he expected to
stay, we brought up the subject
that might naturally come under
the heading of I-Don't-Believe-A-
Now, why is it if l say Il like
you" you, or maybe somebody
else, will think just the opposite?
Or if I say 81 hate you" you will
think the very opposite?
In the course of a days work I
naturally must bat out an item
or SO herein. In most cases the
things I write, usually trivial, l
mean. Whether you believe it or
not, some times it requires a good
deal of rambling around and a
good deal of sweat, in these days,
to get UP and set down these items.
Which reminds me that an Eng
fish professor who once tried to
make me like Or lui-4p poetry said
this: Poetry is one-tenth inspira-
ton and nine-tenths perspira-
tio1."
Therefore, what's the sense of
me sitting down here and talking
in double-talk to you?
1t is just one of my human
frailties to want to be liked. Some
times I sit down here and bat out
a number directed at a particular
group for the sole purpose of try
in, to get that group to like me,
or like something l like.
But I have found-just yester-
