A smiling sky and ideal weather on Thanksgiving is the only thing that cannot be made to order for the blessing of the cornerstone of the New St. Vi- tus church which will take plače on Thanksgiving day at 3 p. m. Everything else has been pre- pared and everything is in read- iness to make the day for whicli the parishioners have been vvaiting for a long time. Ali the plans for a fitting celebration have been made, so- cieties of the parish have been invited to be present in body, and school children are prepai- ing to take part in the celebra¬ tion with their elders for it is a celebration in which ali will partake. Rt. Rev. Joseph Schrembs, Bishop of Cleveland will preside personally at the blessing of the cornerstone and make the ad- dress that is customary on such an occassion. The blessing of the eorner stone will be preceeded by a par¬ ade through the streets of the parish and wind up at the grounds where the new church is being built at E. 61st and St. Clair avenue. About a month ago the first clod of earth has been turned and the work on Ine church has begun and has been going on very rapidly the štruc ture will be ready for the cor¬ nerstone vvhose blessing is al- wavs a major cereinony. A clear New Idea in Dance Will be At- tractive For the Forthcomin^ Party The Spartans are always on the lookout for something new in dances and they are doing their best to furnish the most entertainment that can be crowded into an evening. This time the name explains the idea of the great informality and good time in a real collegiatt. fashion. They will not strive to get the effect only by calling it a collegiate prom but there will be plenty of atmosphere created by the decorations of collegiate col- ors and pennants representing ali the different colleges in the United States. With such dec¬ orations and such an atmos¬ phere it is evident that the Spar¬ tans will do their utmost to sur- pass ali of their past events. The dance will take plače in the upper hali of the Slovene National Auditorium on St. Clair avenue with Revell and his .rev- ellers doing the mušic. The dance will take plače on Novem ¬ ber 30th .

FOR SlOH (M Soloist and Choruses Are Now Ready to Present American Premiere of Popular Opera TICKETS FOR OPERA GOING FAST Best Slovene Voices to Be Heard in Slovene Auditorium in Opera Next Sunday Fifteen years somewhat tim- idly but with a great deal of en- couragement from enthusiasts the leaders of the Band Bled have begun a work that looked somewhat experimentai in ali of its aspects. It was a shaky proposition to start out to cre- ate a sensation or even to make an impression that there is real need of a band among the Slo¬ venes. Nothing daunted the leaders felt sufficiently sure of themselves to warrant a trail and out they set to accomplish what some thought was ambi- tous and were sceptical. That however did not deter the lead¬ ers from their purpose and from the germination N of a little thought arose an organization that today is preparing for its 15th anniversary. Hard as the struggle was and at times very disappointing yet it was surmounted and the band the oldest Slovene band in America can be proud of some of the achievements that havt been made during the last fif¬ teen years. November 30th will mark the (Continued on page four) The final and eventful day vvill be at hand when the cur- tain rises on the third annual production of the Slovene opera “Gorenjski Slavček” by the members of the Zarja Singing Society next Sunday evening at the Slovene National Home on St. Clair aven Hard Work Culminates When the curtain rises the hopes and wishes of the mem¬ bers will have been fulfilled and their hard work revvarded foy the presentation of the best known and the most famous of Slovene operas. That vvill be the night for which the society has been preparing for during the last 8 months to make perfect and now after months and months of hard work even štren uous hard work they are ready to have the people, Slovene lov- ers of the opera to pass on their judgment of vvhether the work and effort has been satisfactory. As far as the members of the so- ciety themselves are concerned they are satisfied that the work has gone so well as |,t did in spite of the difficulties that they have had to encounter in the preparation. Exceilent Čast The work has been hard and, the results are as perfect as may be expected and usually with Zarja-the sky is the limit. They vvill not disappoint in this as they have not disappointed in the past. With some marvel- lous singing and acting on the part of the old-timers vvho are experienced and vvho have had parts in former operas there is little to doubt as far as success is concerned. Some of the fin- est parts have been taken by the old actor-singers. Mr. Belle vvill have the part of Franja the lover. Mr. Belle has an un- usually fine tenor voice and uses it effectively. Opposite Mr. Belle will be Mrs. Antoinette Simčič a -soprano who vvill take part of Minka or the Gorenjski Slavček (The nightingale). Mr. Frank Plut has the part of Chansonette the French singing maestro while Mrs. Mary Ivan- ush vvill play opposite him in the role of his wife. -Those are the principle titles and roles, less prominent but j ust as im¬ portant vvill be the parts of Mr. Vatro Grili, M: Joseph Birk, Jr. and others wr will take part in the opera.

IS Man is a peculiar animal. Pie is human and he social. Because he is human he has many characteristics which distinguish him from ali other beings. Reason and the capacity of doing what he wants to do make him a human being. That is the reason why he is differ- ent. But there is enough instinct left in him that he pre- fers to be a social animal. That is he likes to be in groups or at least in such a position that when he chooses to come in contact with others he can readily do so. The eapacity for thinking coupled with the instinct to be in a C rowd is responsible for ali the various forms of govern- ment and group projeets that have spelled the history of the World. The evolution of human progress is one in which the beings which we call human have banded themselves to gether and have through united force and work made certain conditions come to pass. The greatest force, of course, is reason with ali of its capacity of thinking out a process or at least imagming that a certain set of con¬ ditions will make for easier living or for greater united coordination of ali the members of the group. Essential- ly we have not progressed very far ahead in the organi¬ zation as it was long ages ago. The only difference is numbers. In the beginning the original government or the set which has governed was the first family with its head in the parents. Later the various families grouped and became a giioup of families with a recognized head. That is the foundation of society. Today organiz- ed society has grown very large and the tendency today is to break the large into smaller units so that people of si¬ milar interests or of same extraction band together to dc each other common.good. Modern organizations are an evidence of this. We have organizations for ali the different things as there are objects. Self-preservation and continuity of the stock are pi^obably the greatest instincts that men possess. It is these instincts that have been the reason for ali the va¬ rious undertakings that are recorded in hi'story. After the individual cares are taken čare of thoughts go to those about them and similar interests cause organizations tc be formed that have comon purpose. That is the history of our own Fraternal organizations and why they were formed. Fraternal organizations rest on the idea that In union there is mutual cooperation and the resultant mutual strength which is not found in individuals. Long ago the Slovenes have felt for their interests it is necessary to establish organizations which will take čare of them wher they are sick or to support or aid those left behind when lhey die. Simplicity and sacrifice on the part of the pio neers have made the organizations of vvhich the Slovenes have perfect right of being proud. Si’mplicity and a dis- tribution of effort down to the last members of the orga- nization have made them efficient to the utmost. It has made them reliable and low costing. Comparative statistics have shown that the Slovene organizations are among the lowest precapita rate organizations The reason for that is that there is perfect self government in ali the small units know as lodges It would be much higher priced if there was not a system by which mem¬ bers themselves could do the work of proffesional work. The insertion of laws that members must visit the sick has resulted in a lowering of benefit rates that would be impossible if such a thing were not done. Besides prov- ing that the lodge members are very human in visiting the sick it lowers the cost of keeping and giving sick be¬ nefit. which is a characteristic of Slovene organizations. Privileges always have corresponding duties which must be accepted for harmonious work. The various lodges have therefore the corresponding responsibility of doing the best thing for the whole organization. They should see to it that the individual organizations are as efficient as it is possible to make them, The officers should be elected with selection so that the best in any lodge really shows the representative of the lodge. The basis of selection should be representation rather than good looks or some accidental quality which may be a fine ornamentation but as a sterling quality they are nil. It too often happens that many members when they are proposed for election shirk the work that is connected with the office pleading that they have no time or that they are not fit. If one really wants to find time there will be time and if fitness is not lack it is time to become fit. It is pleasing to know that several lodges have made the positions at the head of their respective organizations so important that there is real electioneering for the po¬ sitions. But they are exceptions rather than the rule. Ir the great majority of cases the positions are pushed off and off until someone who is not really fit to occupy the places that are given them. And when such a thing happens ali those who have refused or feared that thej would be proposed start the grand “raspberry” chorus. It is easy to criticize but it is much harder to work. Umty and cooperation will do many things that are deemed impossible or e ven improbable. This subject is discussed today with the hope that since at this time of Ih e year the elections will take plače the various lodges irrespective of which m other organization they belong will be fair enough to seek their own welfare by good representation in. the offices and a general adoption of 8 oolicy of hard work for the organization and for the wel- fare of the Slovene in which the lodges must cooperate. test and when she seeks her own clestiny, the father is de- prived of both wife and daugh- ter. * * “Books, their plače in a Dem- ocracy” by R.

CONCEIT Eyx: Libri We have often heard of the saying, “The sluggard is wiser his own conceit than seven m Conducted by the St. Clair Branch Public Library. Jeffery FarnoTs new novel “Over the Hills’ is the story of a nameless red-haired bonds boy who became involved in the Ja- cobite uprising under the assum- ed role of Lord Bellcastonbor- ough. The intrigues of the vvar- ring interests caused his marri¬ age to the beautiful Barbara Ma cGregor, through this relatio* 1 ship he discovers his father, who is Sir Hector Keith. Farnol is a> past master in dealing with scenes of historical romance and adventure and his latest book will prove to be as intriguing as any he has written in the past. “The Hawk of the Desert” by A. M. Treynor, is an adventure story of the desert. When Al- len Darwin unaccountably van- ishes from one of the walled cities of the desert vvhere men were sold as slaves his brothei gathers together a band of out- laws and roams the desert in search of him. The book has a -slight love interest running through it but presents an im¬ probable story vvhere one is held in suspense at the narrovv es- capes of the leading characters. “Philippa” ’ by Anne Dougle Sedwick, author of “The little French Girl” is a dramatic and well written story that teliš of: a conflict of human will and temperment. Love, marriage and divorce are followed by a contest betvveen the daughter of a first marriage and the sec- ond wife for first plače in a man’s affections. The very cool headed daughter wins the con- men that can render a reason. If there is anything wrong vvith a man’s physical body, he wcrks to make it right. The man too thin eats abundantly, consults his doctor, studies methods of increasing weight. The man too fat roasts him- self patiently in a Turkish bath, exercises, denies himself food that he craves. The hollow-chested, round- backed man practices “setting up” exercises, goes to a gym- nasium, puts himself in the hands of a thick-necked athlete vvilling to guarantee fesults. We see our bodies in the mir- ror; and must recognize their defects. We do not see our brains, our more or less deformed habits of thought, and above ali, we do not see the conceit that exag- gerates and magnifies us to our- selves. There is, unfortunately, -no mental gymnasium, with learn- ed phychologists to reduce uur bulk of conceit, or stimulating enthusiasts to increase our sup- plies of energy and vvill power. Millions in this world need a mental gymnasium, and there is none. Take a lion who has a thorn in his foot, he is glad to come limping to a man who cai. draw out the thorn. That lion is wise enough to shovv grati- tude by špar ing and serving that man when they meet later, in the arena the lion is expected to kili and eat the man. That lion, vviser than some men, knew that with a thorn in his foot, he couldn’t amount to much as a lion. He couldn’t run, jump or defend himself prop- erly. Conceit in the mind is worse for a man than a dozen thorns in each of a liori s four feet. Conceit makes mental crip- ples of us. We cannot at the same time think hovv great we are and realize as vre need to realize how little we are. Many a man stands on the earth, back of him, his ovvn con¬ ceit, like a brilliant light, casts his shadovv, gigantic, ovenvhel- ming over the sky. The poor goose looks at the shadovv, notes its vast dimen- sions, reaching from earth to heaven, and says in simple in- nocence, “ I had no idea that I was so important.” What a surprise for that man if he could turn around, blow out the light of his own con¬ ceit and see the shadovv disap- pear. “To knovv ourselves for vvhat we are, and knovving, try to make ourselves better ' is the Wise Course.” This is not printed for chil- dren or for the very young men and vvomen. In them, conceit often is a sort of a start in life, that acts like one giving a slight push to a youngšter learning to skate or ride a bicycle. It sets the youngster going. Conceit is natural in children, and con- tinues vvithout evil effects in early youth, mixed vvith doubts and misgivings. It is out of plače in men. With them the first vvisdom should be as the old saying, ‘Knovvledge of them¬ selves.’ We are ali ready to admit that the rest of the vvorld is conceited, “out of step.” Fevv of us admit or can real¬ ize that conceit is in us. Behind is the bright light. Before is the great shadovv. And it looks real. The lion is grateful to the man that pulled out the thorn, although pulling it out vvaš painful. A foolish man, if you intei fere vvith his conceit, or try to remove it from his mind by truth telling, resents your good friendly candor. Try it on the favorite conceit of some friend, as a philosphic experiment. He won’t like it. Millions of us sit, as it vvere, in the cave of our conceit, mis- taking for reality the shadovv that the light of self-esteem throvvs before us. Conceit often starts in flat- tery. Children too often start life on a false basis, because of the flattery of parents or other relatives. When a human being has be¬ come used to deceiving himself, to take away his conceit is a bitter blovv. one m ten vvill listen naf¬ to any opinion that is tlet % ovvn opinion.

Sliort of Slo- vene Literature Bij F. T. SUHADOLNIK Very coincidentally Jurcic’s grand father related just the kinej of tales which Levstik recommended. These gave him the idea for his most popular novel “Jurij Kozjak, slovenski janičar” a historical novel vvhich was vvritten in Walter Scott’s style. The storv was published in 1864 by the Mohorjeva Družba. “Liv- ely action placed into the age of terror of the Turkish Wars, clearly outlined characters and famous places known to every inhabitant especially the castle of Ko¬ zjak, the ever important monastry of Stiska, the famous pilgrimage at Krka and the Church of thfe Blessed Virgin at Muljava are part of a novel vvritten vvith a realistic pen. The aged Hinek, pastor at Stiska, preached only of the novel Jurij Kozjak for three Sundays so that the people came from far and wide to listen to the discourses”. (Levec) Celistin he published the first volume of “Slovenska Vila” and in the collection of stories under that gen¬ eral title some of the similar stories that the Glasnik published appeared. The collection contained “Jurij Kobila, a novel of the times of the Lutheran reform- ation” and “Tvvo Friends”_ While the Glasnik publish¬ ed during the same year the novel “Tihotapec” (The Smuggler). For the Mohorjeva Družba publication “Večernice” he reedited the famous “Memoirs of an old Slovene” dealing vvith the times of Napoleon’s war vvith the Russians. At the end of his studies at the St. Aloysius Aca- demy, Jurčič left schdol and devoted ali of his time to vvriting. Janežič sent him enough money for his vvorks that he was able to live on the income of his pen. Though he lived he lived poorly. He hoped that this method of living vvould get him through the Uni- versity at Vienna. In the fall of 1865 he. left for Vienna and entered the course in philosophy vvith a speciali- zation in Classical Philology. At the same time vvith Jurij Kozjak, Jurčič vvrote stories for other Slovene nevvspapers. The Slovenski Glasnik published “Domen” a historical novel and “Jesensko noč med Slovenskimi polharji”. As a senior n school and in connection vvith Fr. Mannom and Fr. His Vienna years vvere the height of his literary industri. In the Glasnik and Večernice in 1866 he vvrote some historical novels, and thus attemped as the first Slovene novelist to write real Slovene novels. Thought of Walter Scott and the recommendations of Levstik in his Deseti Brat vvere the inspiration for his ovvn story of “Deseti Brat.” Memories of the castle and the lords in their castles came vividly in mind vvhen he revievved the times vvhen he taught the baron’s daughter at Kravjak at Muljava. Jurčič created his characters after the style of Scott and made them real Slovene characters. His characters stand alone in their creation — Levstik’s may be held as forecoming to Jurcic’s ovvn. The grotesque humor made the vvork popular immediateiy. In the follovving year he began the novel “Cvet in Sad” (Blossoms and Fruit) and as something lighter he aisa vvrote “Kozlovska sodba na Višnji gori.” The new novel vvas similar to Deseti Brat. The plot is sim¬ ilar and the subplot is similar and based on life of the more educated inter-vvoven vvith scenes from the peasant life. The later by its contrast and its humor becomes more interesting than the main plot and the main narrative. The vvork vvas finished and began to appear in the “Cvet” vvhen Levstik sent Jurčič a criti- cism of the “Deseti Brat.” The criticism contained ali the points of merit and points vvhich vvere vveak and could be strengthened. The main criticism vvas that the love story vvas unrealistic and Impossible and that the peasant scenes vvere too biased, pictured too much vvith an eye on grotesqueness and humor rather than real life. On the basis of the criticism Jurčič resolved that the new novel contained the same -faults and that the unpublished part vvould be revvritten but the vvork did not go as smoothly as he anticipated and vvas then forced to abandon it temporarily. Rather than vvork too hard on revvriting he decided that he vvould vvrite a story concerning peasants and their life in a realistic manner true to life itself. As a consequence he began the “Sosedov sin” (Neighbor’s Son). Ali the other vvork vvas tabled and the work on latest novel vvas done vvith the conscientious regard for ali of the criticisms vvhich he had received. As a result the Sosedov Sin is BETTSV Močilnik P. Kovi Mandel G. Kovi Škufca Sajovec Perdan T0TALS 4RCAD1 A. Kuhe R. Cetin t Sodja Jenko Pekol I0TALS ^ 9.

This is a feature of the Public Athletic league’s first annual carnival and marks the initial appearance of Miss Walsh since she gamet further laurels in her recent trip through Europe. The local star will give a five-yard handicap to ali entries. Besides Miss Walsh, the league will present exhibitions in 22 sports ranging from arch- ery to vvrestling. Over 500 par- ticipants will compete in the gi- gantic panorama which will cov- er the entire auditqj.'ium floor. The carnival will start with an olvmpic parade. Ali conteštants and participants will be arrang- ed in fours and marched down the main aisle of the auditorium up and across the stage, where an ensemble is to be formed and a patriotic opening staged. The officers of the Public Athletic League, sponsors of the carnival, are Fred Blaisdell,, pres iderit; John H. Gourley, ex ecu.tive vice-president; Martin Morrison, secretary; and Will- iam Friedman, treasurer. 66 WE 99 ) CONGRATULATE ANTHONY LESKOVEC S. N. P. J. TEAMS 0RGANIZ1NG Accept Steve Trebec’s Challange AIMS AND OBJECTS OF THE PUBLIC ATHLETIC LEAGUE It was only a week ago Steve Trebeč, manager of the Progres- sives basketball club issued a challenge to local S. N. P. J. clubs and at once two clubs the Loyalites and the Comrades re- sponded. Frank Kuhel manager of the Loyalites suggests that the Pra- gressives, Comrades, Loyalites and Strugglers organize a local S. N. P; J. league. These clubs’ to play two rounds at the end of which a suitable opponent can be picked to represent Cleveland in the hopes of bringing the Na¬ tional S. N. P. J. title to oui city. We think the plan of Kuhel and Trebeč is a very good one and should not go by withom consideration. It is only by starting and acting promptly that such conditions as turned up last year will be averted. Why not appoint a temporary chairman and committee. Get the facts from the National Board such as entry fee; last dates to enter tournaments, etc. Personally we feel that there are a sufficient number of teams who are ready to p’ay but — are waiting for some one to start the bali aTolling. Ed Zgonc, Chugwater — Enjoy your drive out in the country this afternoon ? Dashpot — Yes, the bill- boards are turning to red and yellow ? U H Esmeralda — Dear, did you ever love another girl? Johannes — Why, Esmehal- da— Esmehalda — Oh, don’t say it, Johannes. Lie to me and keep me happy! ST. ANN’S GIRLS, NOTICE! Zamec and Vic Zupančič. Four of the above mentioned have also played sandlot bali. Zupan¬ čič, Schofield and Fischer per- formed for the Liberty Caps w hile Ed Zaletel played with the Mlinar Sweets who annexe the class “D” title. About two girls are needed to fiil in space on the Basket-ball team for St. Ann’s Lodge No. 4 S. D. Z. Any girl belonging to this lodge (and she must belong to it) and knowing how to play the game should report at the St. Clair Bath House on Wednes- clay at 8 P. M. McFall, the factory foreman, was asked by the manager whether the new man he had hired was making progress. . “Progress!” exploded the foreman. “Why, I’ve taught him everything I know and he is stili an ignorant fool.” During the past four years the executive heads of Cleve¬ land^ amateur šport groups have often discussed the neces- sity of some day gathering ali of the leaders togther and form- ing .a general body for mutual helpfulness and stimulation of the amateur šport programme. In the spring of 1930, these leaders gathered together and formed such an organization to be known as the Public Athle¬ tic League of Clevland with the following aims and objects: 1. The stimulation of 'ama¬ teur šport. 2. The perpetuation of ama¬ teur šport ideals. 3. The development of a greater programme of participa- tion in amateur šport. 4. The creation of new and greater features in the amateur sports program. 5. The mutual support of the programme by the allied šport bodies. 6. Development of a greater interest by ali in added and bet¬ ter facilities for the amateur šport program. 7. Development of closer re- lationships between local šport units. 8. The affiliation of Cleve¬ land sports-, with national organ- izations, .. - T .... 9. The Creation of a n active representative council to inter¬ est itself in the progress of ali local sports. 10. To assist in the coopera- tion of ali sports with the muni- cipal government. 11. To build a stronger publi- city programme bringing the aims and activities of each group before the general puhlic. 12. To create a greater num¬ ber of permanent trophies for developing traditional competi- tions. The organization representing the following puhlic athletic ac¬ tivities are eligible for represen. tation: 1. Archery; 2. Baseball; 3. Basketball; 4. Casting; 5. Crick- et; 6. Football; 7.

LESKOVEC REGISTERS NEW HIGH MARK BY TOPPLING 277 Spartans, G. W.’s Tied For First Plače M. KRALL SMACKS 255; MILAVEC 233 When Johnny Milavec crash- ed a 269 game last week it was believed by many that his mark would not be ovehtaken But along comes Tony Leskovec, sandlot baseball pitcher, and es- tablishes a new record for high single' game by buffeting the pins for the glorious score of 277. It was the best perform- ance yet staged this year at the St. Clair Eddy parlors. Very likely Tony will receive the Kib- ler suit or overcoat. Although anything can happen between now and the thirtieth of this month. With such bowlers as Wolgemuth, Wysopal, Pekol, Kotnik, Lausche, Yerse, Kro¬ mar, Krall, Fifolt and Udovič pegging away it wouldn’t sur- prise us in the least to find one of the boys outdoing even Les¬ kovec^ high mark. Tony found little difficulty in locating the pocket, missing it but once in the whole game. His other hits were perfect. He began by making five straight strikes, spared in the sixth and then followed with five more successive strikes. He picked of eig-ht pins on his last effort. His buddies Yer.se and Udovič rolled 568 and 554 respectively as their team the Slovenian Young Men’s Club took three from the Pioneers. H U The grudge battle between the Comrades and the Spartans vvas won by the later who roll- cd the highest series of the aft¬ ernoon, garnering 2735 pins. The Comrades however, did manage to win one game when they roll- ej 911 to 888. Johnny Milavec thumped the sticks for 593. This incfuded a 233 seto. Wysopal 561, Charley Wolgemuth 554 and Urban 536 helped in defeat- ing the S. N. P. J. Cre\v. B. Alich rolled best for the Com¬ rades dropping the pegs for 555 series. Adolph Tekautz again returned to the -Comrade lineup felled 550. Frank Fifolt 531 and R. Tifrk 518. H It The Clairwoods rolled some niče scores to walk away with two games from the Sokols. The gymnasts won the first seto by just three pins. Joe Kogoy rolled 193 for the S. D. Z. out- fit. He then gave way to Mihel¬ čič who picked of 212 and 174. Stepic brothers hit well over 500. The Sokols too had a pair of brothers who crashed the ma- ples with success. Tom and Fr. Jereb are the duo referred to. Th former registered 556 the latter 541. • OREL - PIONEER FEATURE SUNDAYS’ PROGRAM Comrades May Upset Boosters It is not very often that two last plače clubs come in for any share of glory. Nor is it very often that two such teams are billed as features on a program that calls for seven games. How- ever, when the Orels and Pio¬ neers get set to stage their tor- rid contests the eyes of many will be turned toward the score sheet on alleys 5 and 6. The Pio- ners have won only three games this year while their adversor- ies are averaging an even zero- minus, for games won. Never- theless the Orels can be booked upon to come through with their first win—maybe two. It is really hard to pick the winner. That’ what makes it ali the more interesting.

Kushlan and Oraz- em toppled the pins for counts of 536 and 526 ir ir The Orels have’ lost fifteen straight games this season. Another good match is the one hetvveen tvvo dark horses of the league, the Comrades and the Collinvvood Boosters (re- spects to Collinvvood Dry Clean¬ ing Co.) The S. Y. M. C. out- fit in playing against the Utop¬ ians will very likely displace w ^ 3 them for third plače. The So¬ kols vvill hook up vvith the Loy- lites. The latter club has lost tvvo of its best bovvlers. Captain A. Germack is finding it hard to replace them. Unless he turns up vvith a couple aces the gymnasts should take over the S. N. P. J. aggregation. The Geo. Washingtons should ride over the Beftsy Ross quin- tet much like their namesake at Valley Forge. The Spartans vvho are perching on top vvith the G.
