Callahan scored 8 points and Freeman six while Crombie made four and Marsh three. Bob Snyder was taken out of the game for having four personals. Gregg was the outstanding star for the Winter Park team. He scored 16 points for the team, ringing seven baskets and making two foul goals. Warren at center made one basket and Peal at guard shot two foul goals. The Winter Park team was prone to travel considerable and was guilty of kicking at the referee's decisions when he attempted to call the violation. , Stetson presented an inpenetrable defense before the onslaught of the "Y." The results of the floor work which McQuillan has been teaching bis men this year was noticeable. In every branch of the work the Stetson lads played around the Y. M. C. A. boys. The pass, work of the Stetson team was one of the beautiful features of the game. Every one of the Stetson players seemed determined to put the welfare of the team ahead of individual Irtory, which determination was carried out with great success. Lineups Stetson Bernard Forward.

Judging from ap pearanees, it seems to the writer that there were four members of the faculty ancl about 14 students at the game, Wasn't that a wonderful turnout for a varsity game which was supposed to be played by what is considered one of the b,est teams this school has had for years?

Due to the many other duties of Frances Mahoney, she has resigned fairy-tale ending. Like life, again, conditions at the final curtain are logically built on Avhat has gone before and not every difficulty has been removed. This leaves no sense of depression. On the contrary it is pleasant to know that the characters are to go on living, not merely existing in a fog of perpetual and unclouded happiness. The cast was exceptionally well balanced for an amateur production. On the whole the voices wore better than the pantomime. In particular there was some stiffness of action where the intention was to indicate at the place immediately joined in a number of interesting games whit'll consumed nearly two hours after which refreshments were served by Mrs. Englehart, assisted by several of the girls.
