Washington & Lee Comes To-monow The Washington ajid Lee batlcet ball suad will arrive in the city tomor row noon, coming from Asheville, and be ready to do their best'to take two games of basket ball from the local 'Y. M. C. A. quintet. One of the games will be played tomorrow night and the other games will be played Saturday night. Both games should be two of the fastest ftnd most ex citing games that have been played on the local floor for a long while. Last year Washington and L6e sue ceeded in winning the first game by the score of 30 to 22, and their left guard, whose name is Glasgow did great deal in helping the victory go to Washington and Lee. That same in dividual is with the team this season, and he is playing the same kind of ball. Glasgow’s side partner will be either Craig or McDonald. Both of these men are on the Glasgow type In all probability the other three play ers will be Bear, center; Moore and Hannie, forwards. Last night the local team in two 15 minute halves, defeated a strong team of old Y. M. C. A. men, by the score of 56 to 14. If the form is shown tomorrow night, that was displayed last night, Washingtcm and Lee will certainly have to play basket ball. The admission to the Washington and Lee games will be 36c. This is due to the fact that It is taking the largest guarantee that has ever been paid any team to bring the 'Virginians here. Washington and Lee is playing Asheville Y. M. C. A. ahd the admis sion to these games at Ashevllel is 50C. ■^Mr. Thomas Wilkes, of Norfolk la^a guei^t of hit uncle. Dr B. J. With erspoon.

The winsomeness of Miss Lillian Howard catches the audience from the first, and coming fresh from expert tutor ship in her art, coupled with the; fact that she is in love with it,^- makes her toe dancing act something above^ the ordinary and ^to be appreciated by’ refined minds. The telephone act of the pair is also a unique novelty. Lesley How ard deserves mention for his excel lent character sketch, well done, as his voice is clear and carries with a,n exceptionally sweet, strong tone. They give a good clean, artistic ^how that will appeal the best. The Casino has matinee and night performances, practically open from 4 to 10.30 p. m. [ The moving pictures are unexcelled in clearness as the machine is focus ed by an expert and is without the usual dimness or flighty motion usu ally seen in moving pictures.
