Yes, the Elephants and Midrats are all set to clash in the annual class fight of the year next Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. in the new Audi toulon.
Faculty men, making up the personnel of each team have practiced long and hard during the past week in preparation for the fight which ailment they have been evaluating in the basketball battle just before the Christmas vocation.
Suits Checked Out
Special equipment was checked on yesterday morning for the member's security, but no such precautions hold since one of such precautions is thought, will not need much aid.
In fact, it is thought by "Ted" Shultz, who captains the Elephants, that another practice will make his performance more enjoyable. He can be able to play in their best form.

The Mitsui Warriors have not bad at much previous experience working together as a team but in divinely the group is made up of men who have played on many of the largest teams of the country and have played in basketballs they won (somewhere) two have been named All-American hockey team; one is a champion cheeker player, while two have won
Elephants Humiliated
Clive Shores, of the Municipal refence bureau, is most popular player in the league. He leads all of the all-star and according to him the Midgets are scheduled to win the Midgets.
Reinhardt Illuminated
The three kids have come back on this statement, and are vested angry, mad, humiliated, gren-stom-ek-Epiphane. Why? Just because their group were warned by a certain reason alone we are going to show those little guys just what easy-going and classy players we are and we will win by an unconscious capture the captain of the circus animals.
Even though the groups are large in size, each one has extraordinary skills, including singing and moving pianos, and they expect to show that ability in all parts of the world.
“Keep-Away” Game Expected “I have expected that the Mate’ll go if they ever get hold of the ball after the topo’s the reason being that they must be able to pass the overgrown men any time they desire and thus be able to keep possession.”
Nevertheless if the tail gets it just once the midgits will not be able to do anything unless they got two or more children frequently as it whiiles by them.
All in all, the chances of winning are about 50-50, although Capitol Shultz declares he played in a nummer of battles and his side won six. Do you know who he? He is the campus telephone phone when he stands up on both feet.

Sport Events More Intelligible to Everyone Through Efforts of Famous Athletic Reporters
Take an unlimited knowledge of the field of sports in general, mix with a sympathetic interest and understanding of the participants in that sport, flavor with a versatile and refined vocabulary of athletic and cultural skills, highlight "the fan" and the casual reader, and you a completed model of the mind of Grantland Rice, dean of America's sport writers.
To learn all the "ins and out" of any one sport is enough for the ordinary follower of athletic events, and care is the man who is able to cover the whole field. That Grantland Rice has done this is shown by the versatility of his athletic skills for him by press associations and athletic clubs at all major events.
From football to surfboard riding; from yachting to polo. "Grant" is called upon to interpret the activities of the players for the great host of people who have not the time to enter the field of sport themselves, but who are not too old to maintain aively all in that is done along that line.
Nair is his talent solely in the fine of reporting athletic events. His formations of the future of sports, his knowledge of the men and others to see th' whole-womenness of sports in general, and his ability to portray all that he writes about in field and human fashion will be a coveted figure in his field today.
America is known as the nation which has been and is the pioneer and chief advocate of all kinds of sports among the rations of the world. This may be due to various reasons, but not the least of those is the sport writer who, through the medium of the radio, the magazine, the radio, and the motion picture, kept before the people the "dope" and the human side of sport. The building of huge stadiums—monuments to the athletics of Americans, and
to the sparing blood of the mass of the people—has come as a result of the refined conception of sporing to which we are about by contact with these media.
For many people, an athletic event is more realistic and more interesting when described through the announcing microphones of Rice, Graham Medine and others. They are able to witness the events themselves. The wealth of past experience, power of observation, depth of insight, and sympathy of understanding which these men have gathered more than the average man can see for himself. It is enough for the average observer to unravel every play as it is executed without noticing the the wealth of sidelights which really describe what happens in those which these sporting reporters have learned to observe.
Anyone who heard Graham Neame and Phil Kahn announce the 1926 world's series knows how much they put into their announcing to make the game, which is America's first international land-loss-team speakers of millions of Britons. Everyone who heard White tell the blow-by-blow story of the Dempsey Panney fight could picture with accuracy everything that went on in the game, including the stadium. The million who see every week the "Sportlight" of Granland Rice on the silver sheet are acquiring a higher regard for sports, and are learning about games and recreational activities which they never knew existed.
It was said that one of the things which made the American doughboy a power in the late war was his interest in sports, especially American colleges, meaning his interest and activity in sports in general. Such interest is being maintained and nurtured by all the material supplied by all the lights and lesser lights among sport writers.

Rock Chalk Yell Started by Club of Scientists
While in school, Bob was a featured member of the Men's Glee Club. After his graduation with the class to the west coast to find work in management, he enrolled at the cost of "My Maryland," the music for which was written by Romberg, the composer of the score of the "Sutro" musical. He presented in Philadelphia, and had a run of 42 weeks before it returned to London, where he wrote best list it as the outstanding musical on Broadway, and its run will probably last through the winter, but there are choirs and has an understated pair of principal characters. In addition, he brings bass in a quartet new broadcast over station WJZ of New York.
It is little wonder that this yell produced by those scientists is a classic. It is probably the only yell in existence which has been produced in a Science Club meeting and carried in the football field for effective use 'here.
Back in So there was a Science lab started by University men and women who had one of their meetings, Dr. E, H. S. Halley, new in the department of chemistry, submitted to his club the U.S. this being repeated three times. A short time after this yell was originated the school took it over and
