Intramural Cage League Gets Off To Fast Start Delphian Society To Sponsor Annual Valentine’s Party On Saturday, Februray 12, the Delphian Literary Society will sponsor their second annual Val entine’s Dance, to be held in the college gymnasium from 8 to 12 p. m. An announcement has been made by the club that the gym will be arranged night club style and that the theme of the dance will be “I Love You Truly.” A King and Queen of Hearts will be selected and presented with a prize during the dance. Con testants will be nominated during the week before the dance at a cost of fifty cents per nomination and voting will be on a “penny a vote” basis. Bob Davis and his dance band will furnish the music for the oc casion and a noted magician will be on hand to perform during in termission.

Admission prices will be $1.25 for couples and stag men, and 50 cents for stag girls. Eliminate the Boo . . . (Continued from Page Seven) sounds horn for a substitution. Of ficials ignore horn but substitute comes on floor. Is this a foul? 11. Team A has ball and shoots for goal but misses as horn sounds for end of first quarter. Who gets baU at beginning of second quar ter? 12. Jump ball between A-1 and B-1 in front court. A-1 taps ball to A-2 who dribbles ball back across 10 send line. What should be done? 13. When ball is handed to play er inside free-throw circle, does he have to attempt the throw? ANSWERS; (1) 2; 2 none; (3) A; (4) B ball out of bounds; (5) A; (6) yes, unless special ruling has been made before start of game; (7) yes; (8) no; (9) noth ing, it is legal; (10) yes; (11) neither team, it is a jump ball; (12) nothing; (13) yes. I would suggest that every stu dent body be given this test. They may be told, semi-facetiously, that if they answer a dozen of the questions correctly, they will be given a license to boo any official who makes a mistake. If they miss more than three questions, they must promise nev er to stand up and comment on poor officiating. And if they miss five or six, they will be charged with study ing the rule before attending their next game and then slip in and sit very quietly—^because the ques tions represent only 13 out of the 500 situations that might arise during the course of a game. Grammatical An army captain who was long on experience but short on formal education was having difficulties with several college graduates in his company. They persisted in correcting his grammar, particu larly his occasional use of a dangling preposition. Finally, this notice appeared on the bulletin board over the captain’s signa ture: “There is a certain spirit of in subordination in this company up v/ith which I will not put.” Dirty Dog Campbell: I had a terrible dream last night. I dreamed I was dead and what do you sup pose woke me up? » Lyman; The heat, no doubt. Barracks “J” and “K” Lead Loop With Two Wins Each In Recent Meetings The ^en’s intramural basket ball league, consisting of teams from the six men’s dormitories, the married vets’ units, and the town boys, got off to a fast start during the week before examina tions with the boys from “J” and “K” winning their first two con tests and holding the lead. Barrack “K,” with Fred Elkins hitting the net for 25 points, pol ished off dorm “G,” last year’s tournament winner, in the first game. Dorm “J” defeated barrack “H” in a hard fought battle by the score of 39-38. Unit “D” beat the boys from unit “F” while the town team de feated the married vets in the oth er contest. This rounded out the first week of play. Last week, Unit “J” and dorm to take the lead while “H” and “K” won their respective games “G” triumphed over their oppo nents to go into a' four-way tie with unit “D” and the town team. Unit “F” and the Married Vets have failed to cop a game thus far and remain in the cellar with two losses each.
