"The four-minute mile," said
Matty Geis, "Is not impossible."
And Mr. Geis should know all
about four-minute miles and any
track matters that might come
up, for the small, fast-talking
man has been track coach at
Princeton for 25 years. And in
those 25 years he has turned

YALE NETTERS
HERE TOMORROW
Old Eli Sends
Strong Team
Invading right on top of old man
rain, the Yale tennis team will ini
tiate a series of four matches in one
week here tomorrow afternoon at 3
o'clock with the Tar Heel netmen.
It is unfortunate that the men of
Eli come to the Hill after the short
rainy spell of the week-end, for Caro
lina will oppose the visitors with but
two victories under its belt, over Wil
liams last week, and nothing more
not even practice.
And So . . .
usually, this iact wouknrt mean
a great deal to a Kenf ield tennis out
fit, but Yale is on its way here with
one oi its strongest teams in many
years and that spells trouble.
As a preliminary to the Ivy league
competition, the New Haven court
men will remain here through Friday,
with a meet scheduled every day ex
cept Thursday when the Tar Heel net-
men face Cornell.
Stephens and Co.
With Howie Stephens , and Norman
Dalrymple in front, the Yale squad
boasts an experienced and highly-
polished set of players.
The defending Southern Conference
and state titlists will have only four
veterans back in the fold, Captain
Eddie Fuller, the Roods, Carl and
Bill, and Johnny Foreman.

Malone Unbeaten
In Foils Matches
With Men's Club
By Jerky Stoft
The sophomore, prodigies of Coach
Ed Coffin of the undefeated North
Carolina fencing team wiped the dust
off their slates last night at 7:29
and prepared to mark one up on the
oss side, but, determined and well-
prepared, the Tar Heel swordsmen
easily swept over the visiting foil and
epee men to whip the Charlotte
Fencer's club, 11-6.
David Malone, fencing in the num
ber three foils berth, set the pace in
that weapon and setting he really did,
for he allowed the visiting Mecklen
burg business men who faced him on
the strips in his three bouts but five
points, walking off with all wins.
Bloom
After Captain Bloom dropped the
initial contest 5-4 to the opposing
Captain Bartlett, the Blue and White
squad ran through seven of the re
maining eight foil events and chalked
up a 7-2 count with the foil.
The skillful epee work of the Ales
kovsky, Kaplan, and Freudenheim
trio continued its prominent role and
took three of the four bouts. After
over eight minutes of consecutive

The Carolina Dames will meet
Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock in
the Graduate Women's dormitory.
Wives of students are cordially invited.
Princeton's track team of 28 ath
letes, two coaches, and one trainer
moved in on Chapel Hill yesterday
morning to prepare for its meet with
the Tar Heels on Fetzer field Wed
nesday. The Tigers left Princeton
with 29 athletes, two coaches and one
trainer, but one of the athletes slept
through Durham and, when last heard
of, was riding through North Caro
lina headed for the coast.
The slumberer, Otto Benjamin Joy
ful, known around the Orange and
Black camp as just "O. B. Joyful,"
is a hurdler. Coach Matty Geis of
the Princetons is confident Joyful
will find his way to Chapel Hill by
Wednesday, and if not then, to Dur
ham, at the very least, by Saturday,
when the Tigers meet Duke.
Tiger Record
Wednesday's meet will be the first
outdoor venture of the year for Geis
and his Nassaus. They've been run
ning all winter in various indoor
meets, with startling and satisfying
results, according to Geis. His team
finished fourth in the IC4A meet, the
only big indoor team meet, and indi
vidual satellites on the squad cap
tured enough individual honors to
keep the name of Princeton near the
top of the track heap.

Handball Doubles
For Today At 2
Rain Postpones Semi-Finals;
Singles Tourney Monday
Again rain interfered with campus
handball activity yesterday afternoon
and necessitated another postpone
ment of the doubles tournament until
today at 2 o'clock.
At that time, the long-scheduled,
semi-final match between the Haupt-man-Schehr
and Hurwitz-Shapiro
teams will come off. Immediately fol
lowing, at 2:00, the finals will be -played
and the campus champions will
be crowned.
It is again urged that all interest
ed in competing in the singles tourna
ment beginning on Tuesday come out
to the courts at 5 o'clock today. All'
announcements pertaining to all
spring handball events will be made'
then.
"Madame Bovary," a French talk
ing picture, based on Flaubert's sen
sational novel, will be shown twice at
the Playmaker theater this eve
ning beginning at 9 o'clock. There
will be an admission charge of fifteen
cents. v
"Madame Bovary," often called the
finest novel of the Nineteenth Cen
tury, was greeted with a storm of
protest when it first appeared in
1857, and its author was arrested and
tried for writing an immoral work.
However, modern criticism recog
nizes the merit of the novel as an
artistic psychological study of the
fall of a woman who seeks in vain
the romance which is lacking in her
mediocre surroundings. The present
film version, in which Valentine
Teyssier of the Comedie Francaise
plays the title role, follows faithfully
the original story and, being filmed
in Normandy, is notable for its au
thentic atmosphere of provincial
