I'ur divisions hive been decided ttuis fnr, induing the Men's Ail vaiiced Singles, Men's Advanced Doubles, Men's Duller Singles nnd Men's Duffers Doubles. The Sooner Team Closes Season Against W & M NORMAN, Old., Dee. 3.-William and Mary college, a powerful fool hall team spawned in the hills of old Virginia, will charge with the frenzy and dash of a Confed erates cavalry squadron when it rides against Oklahoma's Sooners in Oklahoma's semi-centennial game and fo Jnll finale for 1912 at Owen field here Saturday. Coach Carl "Dutch" Voyles' Southerners scent a bowl hid if they can conquer far-off Okla homa. Moreover, William and Mary will deserve it. The Virginia boys haven't been beaten yet this season by a college team, having licked Navy 3-0 and seven other collegiate opponents. Voyles' Virginians were tied by Harvard early in the season, 7-7, but they wiped that out two weeks later by annihilating Dartmouth, the team that had just defeated Harvard. William and Mary's mar gin over the Green at Hanover was 35 to 14 Always tough at Norman, as their 6-6 tie with mighty Missouri two weeks ago proved. Coach Dewey "Snorter" Luster's Soon ers, featuring one of America's finest football lines and a superb blocking back and line-backer in Bill Campbell, will try to close their 1912 season with an upset triumph. Service Losses. Hit harder by losses to the armed forces than perhaps 95 per cent of the other college clubs in America, the dogged Oklahomans have lost four games this year, but three of them were bv bare one touchdown margins, to Texas 0-7, to Nebraska 0-7 and to Tem ple 7-14 as the Sopncrs' near all graduate coaching staff spectacu larly reorganized their offense and defense after the Tulsi defeat in the second game of the war-year campaign. Lack of speed to cover enemy forward passe in the secondary lias been the Sooners' undoing all year. The staunch Oklahoma for wards have had no trouble throt tling every foe running offensive they have encountered, only to look hack with consternation over their shoulders to see long enemy aerials cleverly pegged to speedy enemy receivers oul-run the tardy Sooner pass defense. Oklahoma's fighting line stopped Tulsa's rushing offensive with 76 ret yards. L AUMBRY? -YES! -Cut Laundry Problem?

Perrye's my roommate and I said to her last night, "Pcrrye, let's dodge study table and go over to the Union to the social dancing class." She said, "All right, I only have six classes tomorrow, let's tour over. We grabbed our coats and bar relled out. I thought I could hear the juke box and one, two, three, slide a half block away, so we ran so we wouldn't be too late. When we got there, sure enough, they were one, two, three, sliding all over the place. Being a little winded, Perrye said, "Why don't we wall-flower it for awhile and see how they're doin'?" So we sat awhile. An Eight, Split. Pretty soon Perrye said, "Look." I followed her finger and saw a gal galloping across the floor with the biggest following I ever saw. 1 mean she had a protruding pos terior. As Perrye aptly put it, "She looks like an eight split lengthwhise." All the girls weren't like that tho. There were sonu pretty good looking gals there, but we never did figure out why .he little short ones danced with the Gulliverish guys and the Amazong picked on the little guvs. Iiy then we had caught our breath so we decided to dance, and we hadn't anymore than got on the floor than they started to play a conga. I was with a nice big goon with nice big feet, but mv pop always said, 'Be a good sport," so I gave him a nice, big, weak smile and told him to hitch on. We did pretty well for a while, and then I started feeling myself shooting forward a foot or so after each "kick." Sitting. After I told Elmer (the nice big goon I to put less enthusiasm in the kick, we did o.k. About tho middle of the number 1 happened to glance around and 1 saw Per rye sitting on the floor with some more gills an I hoys. 1 couldn't see how she could be so tired again so soon and anyway, who was that guy sitting on her head ? Afterwards she told me that the guy in front of her had cuffs on his pants and she'd caught her heel in one of them and it had thrown them both, but her first. She's still wondering where he got pants with cuffs on them, even if I keep telling her he probably wasn't a spy. Foot-Throwing. After the conga I danced again with Elmer. His waltzing was stinky instead of sliding like the teacher said, he'd pick up his feet and throw them at me. I got pretty tired trying to figure out I where he was going to aim his feet next bo I said, 'Elmer I feel a mm ill! J ' v,. ( ,v,' 9; ii. unroln Journal. Rome . . . little faint, will you excuse me?" And he said, "Yeah, you're look ing kind of peaked," and walked off and left me there. I collected Perrye and we decided to go home. She says everyone is doing a lot better than they did last week. Anyway, we're going again next week because we got a lot of prac tice for the Military Ball and Mor tar Board party.
