PAGE FOUR THE S A L E M I T E' Saturday, December 7, 1929. Basketball practice for 1929- 1930 began Tuesday afternoon In the Hut. A good number of girls went out for the scrimmage, but not half the number of girls that is expeetcd to come out later. Last year basketball was voted the most popular sport on the campus. It has been started a little later this year than usual, but this is no rea son for the sport’s being less popular Because everybody is greatly inter ested in basketball, and because after the class teams, of si^ girls each, have been chosen the majority of other girls lose interest, the Athletic Association has a new plan. Miss “At” and the Association wai interest every girl at Salem in sport, to do this the following divis ions of the sport have been made: Inter-sorority basketball. Intra-mur al, boskttball, and Inter-class bas ketball. Every girl at Salem ought to and will have a personal interest in one of these divisions, if no! Therefore every girl at Salem will come out to practice the school’s fa vorite sport—BASKETBALL!

Brilliant, witty and eccentric, 1 raeli valued, above all, success- man far removed from the petty jealousies and bigotry of his time. His contemporaries, including his most powerful enemy, Gladstone, were forced to acknowledge the wis dom and power of this man who dreamed of a great British Empire. However, he remained always a man of simple tastes, unspoiled by the flattery that crowned his late success. To the last he was a man who loved life with the unfailing intensity that characterized everything he ever did George Arliss, actor of the legiti mate stage, for whom the play “Dis raeli” was originally written, has the title role of the Prime Minister.
