The Stetson University Basket- kj team met the strong Trinity College team at Durham, North Carolina, and in the fastest and best game of the long series, the Stetson five is playing, took the game from Trinity by the score 0f 43 to 37. Trinity has one of the best teams in the entire South and this defeat administered by the hands of Stetson was a bitter pill. For twelve consecutive games Trinity had "cleaned up," but the Waterloo came when the Stetson banner ran into Durham. Manager Smith of the Trinity team is high in his praise of Stetson. The following telegram was sent by him personally as an example of the high regard he holds the Stetson boys in. "Trinity, after defeating the best teams in the State and winning twelve consecutive games, lost to the fast Stetson team. The game was a sensation." o A. & M. COLLEGE KNOCKOUT CHARLOTTE Y. M. C. A.

Asheville High School encountered the Stetson team during their wanderings thru the Caro- linas and were the receivers for a score of 23 to 17 in favor of the Stetson Team.

Char- The Stetson girl's basketball team took a slow game from the feminine five of Summerlin Institute, Bartow, when the teams met on the Stetson floor last Saturday night. The score, tho 16 to. 5, does not fairly represent what the Stetson outfit can do when they are playing in their regular form, for their work clearly showed the effect of their recent lack of practice. However, the home club had little difficulty in cleaning up the Bartow aggregation, which was allowed few chances at the basket. Miss Ailine Peyton, who took Miss Elliott's place on the Varsity, was. the star of the game, scoring four field goals and several free throws. Miss Clyatt, of Bartow, played the best game for the visitors, scoring their entire five points. The fastest playing of the evening took place in the center of the floor, where Catherine Haynes and Evelyn Turnquist both played fine basketball.

Clyatt Although the Stetson Literary Society has only the program to report for last week's meeting it was a good program and those who missed hearing it should profit by their loss and never miss another literary meeting. The current news of the hour was presented by Gordon North- rup and was followed by a reading by Evelyn Webster. The judges decided in regard to the debate, that the cotton gin has proved more beneficial than the printing press. George Keppel and Kathrine Lesher convinced them of this although Keith Heine and Ada Stallings very ably defended the question. After the report by the Junior Critic, Dion Goodwin, the meeting adjourned. o KENT LAW CLUB. "Bring a Friend." Good Fellowship Spirit Reigns.
