VARSITY HELD TO
TWO COUNTERS IN
STIFF SCRIMMAGE
(Continued from Tag 1)
Emily Taft in "The Cat and the Canary."
The Cat and
the Canary
"The Cat and the Canary" will
come to the Orpheum tomorrow
nig-ht to display its thrilling wares,
after having displayed them last sea
son in Chicago for thirty-six weeks
(same company).
Murder twice told, pressure to
produce insanity in an heiress, much
light comedy, ghosts, knocks, slam
ming doors what a jolt a plain cus
tomary door can give at midnight,
anyhow yawning walls and secret
pas-ages, pretty ladie3 nice villains,
ugly men, a madhouse keeper and a
brown voodoo woman who looks
snakes and talks daggers.
These are a few of the excitants
in "The Cat and the Canary." All
in dim lit spooky halls that seem fill
ed with big staring eyes and creep
ing hands. Broken seals a false
will, a murdered executor, a tortur
er heir, dead faints, screams and
tolling bells all these go t the
comfort of the haunted house on
wheels.
Making a liberal mixture of melo
drama and comedy, John Willard
wrote his thriller, well aware of the
pub'ic delight in being scared when
there is nothing to be scared about.
Indeed when an audience is well on
the run, say "boo" and everybody
will jump. Mr. Willard never for
gets this.
The company of visitors includes
Emily Taft, Louis Kimball, John C.
King, John Stckes, Earl House Clif
ford Dempsey, Wiliam Ma-auley,
Anne Sutherland, Sue Van Duzer
and Gwyneth Gordon.
The engagement of "The Cat and
the Canary" is for two nights and a
Saturday matinee.
Herb Dcwitz and Noble, halfbacks
and Hartman fullback. The frosh
kicked off to the Varsity in the first
quarter and they walked down the
field from their own thirty-five yard
yard line to a touchdown. The Var
sity was forced to kick but once in
the first quarter and they recovered
the ball on the next down on a fresh
man fumble. Noble and Herb De
witz's end runs and off tackle
smashes were responsible for most of
the gains. Whenever a linebuck was
needed Ced Hartman came through
with it. Rufus Dewitz, who was fill
ing in Captain Lewellen's shoes at
quarter was doing a nice piece of
work. His selection of plays and his
execution of them were highly pleas
ing to the coaches.
The Varsity's anxiety to get the
play going cost them considerable
yardage due tojoffside. That ailment
jwiil soon be overcome. It just goes
to show that they are on their toes
and ready to jump. Two of the frosh
forward passes caused the Varsity
some worry when Mandaroy passed
to Bronson on two occasions for
eighteen yards each. The first half
ended with the Varsity on the long
end of a 7 to 0 score.
The third quarter found entirely
new faces in the lineup on both
teams. Coach Dawson's choice was
Westopoul at center, Hill and Ogden
at guards, Halberslaben and Pos
pisil at tackles, Collins and Robert
son ends, Gately quarter, Bloodgood
and Close halves, and "Gipp" Locke
fullback. The sqund battled the line
up of Coach Young's choice for a
quarter and after some flashy end
runs by "Gipp" Locke and some
line bucks Al Bloodgood carried the
voval over for the second touchdown
and he duplicated Herb Dewitz's
stunt by kicking goal after he had
made tho touchdown. Herb's off
tackle smash was responsible for the
first counter.
The battle today was pleasing to
the coaches as they are more able to
pick out their weak places and
remedy them for the opening en
counter at Urbana next Saturday.
Coach Dawson i3 contemplating a
few changes in the Varsity lineup.
His wing positions arestill a worry.
Choppy Rhodes is doing nicely at
riyht end and the question is to get
a couple of running mates and an
other man to jilay right end. It is
almost impossible for any man, to
play tha end through the entire game
so early in the season. Coach Daw
son may shift Weir from tackle to
end as Weir is fash and shifty and he
may take Doug Meyer from end and
nut him in the back field as full fack.
Definite plans have not been made.
Collins, McAllister, Robertson, Hub
ka and Popelar have all been show
ing their stuff at ends and all are
l'kely contenders for a wing berth.
Other Varsity candidates who
.-.ere in Saturday's game were Ran
dolph, Popelar, Bowers, Hubka and
Meyers.
Captain Lewellen, who has been
afflicted with a severe stiff neck,
was in the game but a few minutes
of the last quarter.
"I"m right proud of my son at
college. He's one of the most popular
young fellars thar," said Farmer
Hicks proudly.
"Yer don't say so?" exclaimed a
neighbor.
"Yep; he recently gave a big dinner-dance
in my honor at one of the
most fashionable hotels.
"Wuz you thar?"
"No, I wuzn't."
"Wal, where do you come in?"
"I paid for it."
Have you ever noticed how well
the little green caps go with some
of the freshies complexions. Especi
ally that type of complexion that
so closely resembles the skin of an
alligator. .
