PAGE THREE ^Nonpareils Win Opening Society ns Basketball Encounter 3d The Clios were defeated by the oitJonpariels in a nip and tuck affair ewy the score of 18 to 16. This was the lidirst girl’s game of the year, and was fdhe best that has been played for the 1 last two years. ill The Nons started out in the lead. JTet at no time in the game did they amaintain over a six point lead. As •et was the first game of the year, ituhere was a quite a bit of roughness irevalant. This could have been due lowever, to the closeness of the . fame. T The Clios, though never ahead, It inaugurated the inter-society series for the year. The Phis and Eus will hook up Saturday afternoon. The Nons took the first clash in a nip and tuck encounter that leaves the fol lowing games largely to conjecture.

I picked Alabama to win the iuthern Conference. She didn’t, but uidn’t miss any more than the back 's of many another team. Only a w picked the Green Wave and it is '®e opinion of many that although ®*e had a great team she played only bfew strong teams.

Cl ♦ •igrom the point of sheer thrills idee is no game like basketball, it n.! speed, skill, endurance, every- ?, and ever increasing crowds are Coach Roberts’ Basketeers came through with a thrilling finish in the game with Wofford at Spartanburg, Monday night. Press reports from Spartanburg said that “a game little Mars Hill College basketball team came to hand out a close lacing to the scrap ping Wofford College Terriers, to the tune of 33 to 31, in one of the closest and most surprising hardwood battles ever enacted in these parts.” Booked beforehand as the under dogs by a wide margin, the Mars Hill team unleashed a driving attack which, it is said, completely swept the Wofford Terriers from their feet in the closing moments of play. The Wofford quintet, carefree and confident, quit the court at the half period, leading by the score of 17 to 12. But Coach Oren E. Roberts gave his men a neat talking to between the halves, for they came back on the court at the start of the second half with determination breaking out all over them. The boys from the Hill put up a fine defensive performance in the entire second half and held off many goalward charges by the Pal metto aggregation. During the last ten minutes of the affray the score was tied five differ ent time and the big crowd was on its feet urging its team (Wofford) on to victory. But the game lads from the Hill kept doggedly on. With but a few seconds of time remaining, the vast throng again came to its feet and watched the ending score, a perfect field goal by Reese. Before the ball could be returned to center and a tip-off made, the timer’s whistle sounded to give Wofford its first set back in seven starts. To pick out any satellite from the Mars Hill team would be to ignore the good work of the team as a whole. All fought valiantly. Jordan was the scoring ace, with 19 points. Reese was most active, also, securing 10 for the Hilltoppers. Albritton was there every minute at guard, and others of the team, while not con tributing so largely . to tne scoring, put up an offensive and defensive fight that baffled the opponents. The Wofford team also was game to the finish, and when they saw the game slipping from them they re doubled their efforts, but by that time the Mars Hill lads had gained the upper hand and it was too late.

It seems that they have started their annual circuits in the colleges and universities. We notice that at Carolina, a big he-man of three concise feet entered the fresh man class there to study journalism. Whether this is a prophecy of the downfall of shows or the increase in campus variety, we must say that even the small part of the world wants to be educated. * * * The Asheville Junior College re cently ran their first issue of their “newsie” off the press.

When girls at Lenior Rhyne Col lege were deprived of their social privileges for breaking rules, the gal lant young men of the college came to the rescue with a lengthy demons tration of protest. They banded to gether and marched to the girl’s dor mitory, there displaying a series of yells and noisy objections to the so cial ban. The demonstration took place inside of the home itself, and therefore created quite a bit of un usual interest. 4c 4c 4c Who said the days of yore were gone when ye valiant knight comes to ye rescue of ye gracious ladies who have been subject to the vices and cruelty of ye awful tyrant? 4c 4c 4: It’s the same old story in all of them, good or bad, big or little— “Patronize Our Advertisers.” 4c 4c 4c We wish to acknowledge the re ceipt of the following exchanges: The Tecco Echo—E.

Falk, 30- year-old professor of bacteriology at the University of Chicago, according to The Pathfinder. Six years of re search, declared Dr. Falk, was re quired to make the discovery which brings the “hopeful prospect that an antitoxin for the dreaded disease will now be possible.” The American Medical Association immediately chal lenged Dr. Falk’s announcement. “With little if any apparent warrant,” its organ, the Medical Journal, states, “it is again announced for at least the tenth time in five years that the causative organism of influenza has been discovered and it is hoped to prepare a vaccine. There is thus far little or no evidence in scientific med ical literature, or even in spoken ad dresses, to indicate that Dr. Falk and his associates have progressed any further toward the solution of this problem than have workers in other parts of the world, now or in the past.” Meanwhile a statement was published in London to the effect that Dr. David Thompson and his brother had isolated the influenza germ three years ago. /CSV A NEW LINDY PLANE Quality, Value by Fashion Park KUPPENHEIMER FROM From $35.00 up The MAN I 1 TINGLE’S CAFE For many years a favorite of m Mars Hill Boys.

It is a low-wing mono plane of the open cockpit type, and is driven by a 425-horsepower air cooled Wasp motor and is inclosed in cowling such as the advisory commit tee for aeronautics suggests. The plane has a top speed of 190 miles an hour and, it is said, the longest cruising range of any plane in private use. Its color scheme is distinctive and was selected by Colonel Lind bergh. and his wife. Quick Service LOW PRICES.

A moving picture showing a sun set on the moon was one of the chief features of the annual exhibit at the Carnegie Institution of Washington. The earth rotates on its axis once each day, thereby causing the sun ap parently to sweep across the sky, ris ing in the morning and setting in the evening. Similarly the moon rotates on its axis, but more slowly, once in 27 1-3 days; consequently on it the sun sets in more leisurely manner than on the earth. The film, taken with a moving picture camera using the 100-inch reflector at Mt. Wilson as the lens, shows the effect produced by the sunset on the moon over an area about the size of New Jersey. The actual time covered by the film is five and a half hours; the changes observed during that period are shown in one and a half minutes.
