The purpose of the trip was a basketball tournament. Participants were girls from Aleredith, AY. C., Duke, Carolina, and Saint Alary’s. Our forwards, composed of Lena Grantham, Helena Williams, and Anne Hirst, j)layed with Diike guards; and our guards, Fanny Lee Brooke, Frances Rylander, and A^- dette Bass, played with Aleredith for wards. Our forwards tied Duke for wards with 19 points each. In the run off Saint Alary’s was victorious. The guards had the next highest score, putting them third place in the whole conference and first place among guards. Ruth Aloore and Barnie AYliite j)layed with other teams. Aliss Senecal accompanied the players. After the games, the girls had lunch, saw a little of Chapel Hill, and caught the bus back home, tired but happy. tion a'nd Airs.

Club class doimr a Swinging. A unique feature of this routine is that it will be unaccom panied and the rhythm will be kept by group consciousness. The Thursday 9-10 physical edu cation class will give a tumbling ex hibition of forward rolls, dives and rolls, head-stands, flying angels and baekvaults. The Friday 12-1 physical educa tion class will close the program with a demonstration of pyramid build ing, using groups of fours and sevens and endimr with a large pyramid by the class. The program is open to the public and it is hoped that the faculty, par ents, and friends will attend. “Junior Aliss” will be presented in the auditorium Friday evening, Alarch 10. It will be the first pro- duction given by Aliss Davis and the Dramatic Club this year. I his clever thi’ee-act comedy of adolescence, written by Jerome Cho- dorov and Joseph Fields, is based on Sally Benson’s book. Junior Miss. Ihe play, set in an a])artment house “just off Central Park,” gives the audience a delightfully humorous glimpse of the home life of the Graves family. Judy Graves, the “junior miss,” will be played by Alarion Gaither; and hei’ lively friend, Fuffy Adams, by Lila Spil man. The parts of the charming but rather harassed Air. and Airs. Harry Graves will be taken by Alaria Gregory and Lucy AYoodruff. Ellen Senay is to portray the typi cal “older sister,” Lois. Alana Bur nett, who originally had that part, came down with mumps Thursday morning. Since then, Ellen Senay has been transferred from the role of the telegraph boy to that of the sister. Isabel Robinson took over Ellen’s first role. Caroline Talia ferro, J. B. Curtis, successful busi ness nian; Jeanne Eagles, his daugh ter Ellen; and Annette Fulton, as AYillis Reynolds, will help to com plicate the Graves’ family affairs. The prevailing comedy spirit will be heightened by the appearance of Jeannette Parker as Hilda, the maid; and of Judy’s and Lois’ ad- niii'crs played by Alary Pierce Johnson, Susan Caldwell, Rebecca Drane, Alargaret Alartin, Gwen Hughes, Alary Elizabeth Peirson, Jane Alorris, and Ann Anderson. Sue Parham and Isabel Robinson are to bo the elevator boy and tele gram boy, respectively. Ever since examinations, Aliss Davis has worked with her cast day and night in an effort to produce “Junior Miss” before its presenta tion hero by a Now York company. She will have succeeded by twenty- four hours. From all reports the play promises to be extremely enter taining.
