Sports RamklSng
Well, well, it seems that the
sports rambler actually was right
in the prediction of the basket
ball. The sophomores have abso
lutely no “face-saving” to do. Con-
gradulations. Sophs. Thanks.
Just in ease you didn’t go down to
the last two games, perhaps you’d
like to know that the freshmen beat
the juniors 11-32. The juniors must
, have taken heart or received some
[ new spirit during the last half of
the game for at the half the score
, was 3-16. Even though, the frosh
had too great a lead
! In the sophomore-senior game the
.score was 8-6 in favor of the sophs
I at the half The game, as indicat-
; ed by the score, was almost balanced.
' It remained that way until the end
, of the third quarter -when the Sophs
j let loose and the seniors w’ere un-
I able to ])revent the final score 24-
il.l.
I Caroline Hill and Ann McGee
i seemed mightly thrilled and right-
, ly so, when as the only two new
I members of the varsity, they re-
'ceircd their silver basket balls at
1 the half of the frosh-junior game.
I Now we bow’ to jmy tribute to
■ he losers. The juniors may have
been losers in score, but they had
some of the finish passing and
footwork. If Stovall could cash
in on her long shots and Byrd
could do the same on short ones,
the juniors would have been a
mighty formidible team to work
with. Still we have to pay a tri
bute . . .
But don’t lets’ get so taken up
with basket ball that we forget the
oncoming Athletic events of the
near future. First (and ^nly,
really) are the games which will
make up the badminton tournament.
This should begin about the end of
next week. There is the usual sheet
of paper posted outside the Day-
Student Center for you to sign on;
but why don’t YU make an un
usual turnout and sign iip in large
numbers and soon.
There may be a ping-pong tourn
ament soon ^ too according to your
interest.
So—until I see you at the gym
so long.

—OPERfi—
(Continv.od From Page One)
lish text by Ezra Rachlin, the con-
ductor.
The Opera group is conducted by
Sylvan Levin, who has led the Phil
adelphians across the country on
tlieir tour of over 75 cities. It was
he who conceived the idea of a
young, spirited company of Ameri
can artists which would bring grand
opera back to life in this country.
He pondered the idea through the
10 years he served as assistant to
Leopold Stokowski. Then he met
David Ilocker, a bank clerk, and
the result of this combination was
the Philadelphia Opera Company.
In December, 1939, the company
made its debut, and a year later
hsKl created quite a stir in music
circles. All the operas presented
by the Philadelphia Opera Company
are in English. This is so that the
American people may enjoy opera
as it was intended to be enjoyed.
There are no stars in the com
pany. A girl who may be singing'
the title role in CARMEN may have
a subordinate role in DIE FDED-
ERMAUS and understudy the lead
ing role in a third work. Staging
and costumes keep the spirit of
the time in which the opera story
takes place, but they have been
streamlined to suit modern tastes.
The Philadelphia Opera Company
is developing native art and talent.
This American Opera company is
a group holding its own as an
American institution and in com
pany with cultural offerings of
Cosmopolitan character, such as the
Civic Music Association.

the hard-working masterminds by
a score of 40-11. ,
The attendance at the games hsR

four games of the season. However,
rain prevented the last two turn
