Organize to Protest Grant Cut\nThis is a photograph taken of the student mass meeting held\nThursday noon in preparation for the circulation of the giant\npetition. Nearly two thousand students packed the auditorium\nto the aisles. The object of the drive was stated, instructions\nwere given out, and a general appeal made to the students by\nthe Campaign Committee for their co-operation and support.\nThe response shook the building,\u00E2\u0080\u0094a deafening shout of relief\ngreeted the declaration that it was up to the students now to\njump in and do their share after weeks of suspense. The Committee had drawn up careful plans for organizing the petitioners, not only in Vancouver centre, but in North and West\nVancouver, Burnaby and New Westminster as well, not to mention the wide-spread effort to circulate the petition through the\nwhole province. The results now known are conclusive evidence\nof the spirit of whole-hearted zeal and co-operation with which\nthese plans were carried out.\nPublic Sympathetic\nMore than half tiie people approached signed without question,\nexpressing themselves as heartily\nagainst a fifty percent reduction in\nthe University grant.

Wood.\nTUESDAY, FEBRUARY 16,1932\nSTUDENT SPIRIT\nThe Student Publicity Committee is to be\ncongratulated on the efficient manner in which\nit organised last week's petition campaign.\nWithout that organisation the drive could\n\"never have been the success which it was.\nHowever, organisation was not the only thing\nwhich contributed to the success of the campaign. The student body, too, is fully justified\nin looking with pride on its recent achievement.\nIt was not surprising that plenty of enthusiasm was in evidence at the meeting last\nThursday when the petition plan was announced. The students had been held in check\nlong enough, they were ready for action of any\nkind. However, it is one thing to vote unanimously for action and quite another to spend\na whole day trudging the streets in a snow\nstorm and still come back for more the following morning. The student body has amply\ndemonstrated, that the wild applause which it\naccorded to speakers at Thursday's meeting\nwas more than the response of mob psychology\nto a clever speech. It has proved that the individuals which compose it are prepared almost\nwithout exception to sacrifice their own comfort and convenience for the common good. In\nfact, the complete absence of all individual and\nfaction prejudice which has been a feature of\nthe campaign throughout might well be considered by certain critics of the student body\nand by some people closely connected with the\nUniversity.\nThe result of the drive in the form of signatures has been gratifying and the definite\nknowledge of public goodwill which has been\nobtained is valuable information. Perhaps\nthe most significant result of the drive, however, is the effect which such a remarkable\ndemonstration of student sincerity is bound to\nhave in enlisting public sympathy.\nLE PENSEUR\nIn an article printed in the Sunday Province of February 14, Mr. Jack Loutet, M.L.A.\nfor North Vancouver, submits a volume of evidence intended to show that the government\nwould be fully justified in cutting the University grant by the amount which has been proposed. Mr. Loutet's opinions are interesting\nand for the most part appear fairly logical. His\nsuggestion that fees at the University be\nraised as a means of increasing the revenue has\nbeen considered impractical by others with a\nmore intimate knowledge of University finances than he. Nevertheless the member for\nNorth Vancouver is quite entitled to express\nhis own ideas on the matter., When, however,\nMr. Loutet says that \"a group of students\nwould apparently rather see these thousands\nstarve than for a time reduce their educational\nfacilities or see an increase in its cost to them,\"\nhe is either deplorably ignorant of the facts or\nhe is guilty of the fault with which he charges\nthe student body, namely, failure to think.\nThe students of U.B.C. have never given\nany indication that they wished anyone to suffer as a result of the University grant being\nincreased. They have already accepted a heavy\ncut which has touched them personally in the\nform of increased fees. They have expressed\ntheir willingness that the University should accept a further reduction in the grant. What\nthey are protesting is that the University\nshould suffer more than any other department.\nIf it can be shown that this is not the case the\nstudents will be the last to agitate for more\nfunds.\nMr. Loutet, as a thinker, can surely see the\nimpracticality of limiting education in order\nto provide temporary relief for the needy. It\nis obvious that such a policy would not only\nfail to provide a sound solution to the problem\nof poverty, but would also aid materially in\ndecreasing the earning power and the mental\nbalance of a great many more people. Such\nan ill-founded argument is definitely derogatory both to the rest of Mr. Loutet's argument\nand to his own ability to view a world-wide\nsituation in perspective.\nTuesday, February 16, 1932\nOur petition campaign came like \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 whirlwind. Announced one day, and almost completed the next! The chairmen of the Publicity\nCommittees and the class execu-\nCampalgn tives showed remarkable expedi-\nComraent tion and organizing ability, and the\nresponse of the students was all\nthat could be desired. At this time, I have not\nlearned the final number of names obtained in\nGreater Vancouver, or the results from other\ncentres, but it is apparent that we have received gratifying support from the public. Our\npetition speaks with tens of thousands of\ntongues, and demands a fair/deal for the University.\nOne of my own observations was that most\nhusbands are still masters in their own homes.\nSome wiveg would not sign until they had\nobtained permission, and some Husbands considered that their signatures stood for tiie\nwhole family and would not get their wiveg to\nsign unless specially requested.\nI found that the general feeling on the\nstreet I covered was that education should not\nfeel the economy axe so heavily, that the\nwork of years should not now be crippled,\nthat the government was making too drastic a\ncut in the University grant, and that the children of the general public would suffer, while\nthe wealthy could go elsewhere.\nWe had a good example of biased journalism in the heading The Province gave to the\nstory of the campaign. It seems mat \"bewildered\" citizens were \"induced\" to sign up. The\ncitizens who signed my petition were not bewildered\u00E2\u0080\u0094they knew exactly what they were\ndoing, and they were glad to do it.\nThis is the same newspaper which, with\nits usual bold leadership, ran an editorial on\n\"U.B.C. and B.C.\" that was open to two interpretations, I thought. And there soon appeared confirmation\u00E2\u0080\u0094one correspondent garnered that the University was being attacked,\nand another thought it was being supported!\nOne choice passage was: \"Under the circumstances the government of the province could\nscarcely be blamed for assuming mat the\nprovince was indifferent to the University that\nthe University didn't mean anything to the\npeople, and that the taxpayers would rather\npay their obligations, save on their taxes, or\nspend their money on roads or unemployment\nrelief, than on the faculties and students at\nPoint Grey.\" Read it again.\nThe matter of the origin of \"O.K.\" is opened\nagain with the presentation to me of a clipping\nfrom the Canadian Wallpaper Magazine. In\nspite of the theory expounded, I hold\n\"O. K.\" by \"hoka,\" the Indian word adopted\nAgain by General Andrew Jackson. Here\nis the quotation:\n\"The expression 'O.K.' is in current use in\nFrance as meaning \"approved\"\u00E2\u0080\u0094and surely\nthe French never heard that it is a Barnum-\nesque way of expressing \"Orl Korrect,\" as our\nAmerican neighbors affirm. I was puzzled\nas to how this \"Americanism\" had crept into\nthe French language, so asked one of the leading French magazines, that specializes in answering queries as to the language, what the\norigin of the word might be. I was amazed\nwhen I read the following reply:\n\"The best rum imported into France comes\nfrom a small town known as 'Aux Cayes' (pronounced in French 'o-kay'), near Port-au-\nPrince, Haiti. In the wine and spirit trade\nwhenever a liquor is of irreproachable quality\nit is said to be 'Aux Cayes,' and this expression has been generalized to designate anything^\nthat is above reproach.\"\nIf any solution is to come to the great social\nand economic problems of the day, it will inevitably come from the trained thinker, from\nthe men who have assimilated facts already\nknown, and are therefore in a position to estimate with the best chance of success the merits\nof various plans for the improvement of social conditions.\nUniversities are recognized everywhere in\nthe world as the natural home for such fostering of ability and learning. It seems logical,\nthen, despite Mr. Loutet's sincere objections,\nto see that the youth of this province receive\nopportunities at least as great as those of other\nCanadian provinces, if British Columbia is to\nhave the services of such highly trained men.\nSeventy thousand voters can't be wrong.\n* * *\nSitting Bull hopes to have a \"fine\" time at\nthe Co-ed Ball, but he'll have to pull a fast\none to get there.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 a\nThe birth notice and the obituary of the\nfirst Ubyssey \"extra\" might have appeared in\nthe same paper.\nS.

A. Ireland, Monday evening.\nAt the time of Confederation B.\nC.'s problem was perplexing. The\ndebt was increasing and mining returns dwindling, annexation was\nstill mooted on the Island. The\nchief article under discussion of the\nterms of Confederation was the railway clause.\nJoseph Trutch, the first lieutenant\ngovernor, called on J. P. McCreight\nto form a government. The first\nLegislative Assembly composed of\n25 members met on February 5,\n1872. Party politics were unheard of.\nDuring G. A. Walkem's admlnstra-\ntlon, 1874-76, the Island vs. Mainland\ndispute.\nThe survey had been completed but no actual work\nbegun, and Esquimalt had been\nchosen as the terminus. The \"Pacific\nScandal\" drew attention away from\nB.C.'s ills for a time. Commissions\nwere sent out to investigate the situation but varied greatly In the amount\nof annual expenditure proposed. The\nCarnarvon Terms were most favorable\nto B. C. but the attitude of Eastern\nCanada was opposed to the railway\nscheme as utterly impracticable.\nManhood suffrage was introduced\nby A. C. Elliot. The railway problem still raged but a start was soon\nmade, the route chosen and Burrard\nInlet made the terminus. On November 7, 1885 the Canadian Pacific\nRailway was completed followed by\nthe completion of the Island line,\nAugust 3, 1886. With the completion\nof the railway a new day dawned\nin B. C.\nUp to 1903 no great political leader\nhad been produced in B. C. The\ncoming of Richard McBride in 1903\nchanges political history. He definitely favoured the party system and\nfollowing the election of 1903 he\nformed the first Conservative government. He also is responsible for\nmany railway ventures, the Canadian\nNorthern Pacific, the Kettle Valley\nand the Pacific Great Eastern, all\nreceived his support.\nIt being difficult and unwise to\ncomment on contemporary politico)\nhistory Mr. Roper concluded with a\nchallenge to prospective politicians.\n\"The province has not been well administered; railway expenditure has\nbeen lavish, the debt has increased\nUntil great men ready to carry out\ngreat measures come Into power in\nour province we are doomed to\nfailure.\"\nLetters Club\nHears Paper\nOn Irish Mystic\n\"To reveal Ireland in a clear and\nbeautiful light, to create the Ireland\nln the heart, Is the province of a national literature.\" This was the\ntheme of the paper, \"A. E.\" given\nby Robert Brooks before the Letters\nClub at the home of Dr. Sedgewick\non February 9.\nMr. Brooks began with an outline\nof the cultural movement known as\nthe Irish Renaissance, a great re-birth\nof the Irish national spirit in literature. Prominent in this movement\nwas \"A.E.\" He has become the embodiment of the peculiarly interwoven strands of Irish character, of that\npeculiar mingling of the material and\nthe spiritual which at once allures\nand astounds us.\"\nThe task undertaken by A. E. was\nto develop an Irish culture, a national consciousness and ideal which\nwould permeate the whole of Irish\nsociety. He believes in the value of\nestablishing a Celtic tradition. He\nhas done more than any other man\nto make Dublin a centre of intellectual life and is ever on the lookout\nfor latent or unrecognized talent in\nhis countrymen.\nA. E.'s early mental development\nwas very rapid. At fourteen he began to delve into \"that profound\nliterature, the scriptures of the\nworld. Brahman, Buddhist, Egyptian and Chinese philosophies were\nhis constant study. It is hardly to be\nwondered at that there was nothing\nIrish in his first and second volumes\nof verse. All his thoughts were colored by Orientalism. At the age of\nthirty, however, he became interested in a new realm. Irish folklore\nand druidism superseded Hindu mysticism in his poetry.\nA. E.'s time, however, was not all\ndevoted to poetry. Early In the century he became actively identified\nwith the task of reconstructing Irish\nagricultural life. In 1923 he founded\nand edited the \"Irish Statesman\" for\nseven years the very centre of Irish\nthought and culture. On its demise\nin 1930 the Literary Digest stated:\n'His paper went out of business because it was too fearless, too brilliant. Its passing leaves a gap in the\nintellectual life of the Irish people\nwhich may not be filled for many a\nday.\"\nA pronounced characteristic of\nA. E.'s whole life and work is his\nmysticism, a natural outcome'of his\nstudy of ancient cults and legends.\nHe pictures his brain as a court in\nwhich many living creatures throng.\nWith pictures of memory are blended pictures from other minds, other\ncountries, and sometimes reflections\nof happenings in regions Invisible to\nthe outer eye. \"And as meditation\ngrows more exalted, the forms traceable to memory tend to disappear,\nand we have access to a memory\ngreater than our own, the treasure\nhcuse of august memories in the innumerable being of earth.\"\nA. E.'s poetry exemplifies this\nfaith. Many of his lyrics express this\nPantheistic view\u00E2\u0080\u0094that earth is the\ngreat mother, from whom we spring,\nCAPTAIN\nChinese Scoret\nJapan's Action\nFollowing la another article on the\nsituation la the Orient, written by a\nChinese student at the University.\nThe Ubyssey wishes to state that\nthis la the private opinion of the\nwriter of mat article, wtereoting at\nsuch, but not necessarily that of the\nPublications Board.\n' ROBERT HARCOURT\nBob is the baritone who will appear\nas the genial Captain.

Kong Lee, Arte '32\nThe Renaissance and Reformation\nkilled the Holy Roman Empire. From\nthat time onwards Nationalism had\nits steady growth. The European\nnations, all aimed at national grandeur. As a result, every nation was\nInterested only In external expansion. The ear of colonization\nthen set in. This policy reached its\nclimax at the World War.\nAfter the World War, every nation realized the mistake of their\nformer policy and looked back with\nregrets on the destruction of the\nHoly Roman Empire. Tht League\nof Nations waa created tor the maintenance of world peace. Ever since\nthe creation of this institution various movements have been directed\nin the Western World at large for\nthia purpose. While the Western\nWorld is working feverishly tor this\npurpose what course is Japan pursuing?\nJapan on the pretense of protecting her rights and Interests in Manchuria, occupied Mukden on Sept.\n18, 1931, and seized all strategic\npoints in the three Eastern Provinces. Even if we grant that Japan\nhas a list of grievances, the is not\njustified in such a military course.\nShe is a member of the League of\nNations and one of the signatories\nof the Hint Power Pact and tht\nBrland-Kellogg Treaty. In these international treaties she has pledged\nherself to respect the administrative\nand territorial integrity of China.\nAs a member of the League of\nNations Japan should submit the\ndispute to\u00C2\u00ABthis institution for peaceful arbitration in advance of making warlike moves. Article 13 of\nthe League of Nations provided\n\"That the members of the League\nagree that If there should arise between them any dispute likely to\nlead to a rupture, they will submit\nthe matter either to arbitration or\nenquiry by the Council and they\nagree in no case to resort to war\nuntil three months after the award\nof the Council.\" But Japan failed\nto do this.\nJust as private citizens are prohibited by every civilized state in\nthe world from taking violent measures to obtain redress from their fellows, without first having appealed\nto the state, so are nations in a civilized world pledged by their honor\nto submit their disputes to peaceful\narbitration, prior to any military action. But Japan has resorted to barbaric justice.\nThe Right Honorable George Lans-\nbury has well said, \"the Japanese\ngovernment has been engaged in a\npiece of International piracy.\" Should\nevery nation follow the same policy\nas Japan is pursuing the only peaceful machinery\u00E2\u0080\u0094the League of Nations\u00E2\u0080\u0094would no longer exist.\nThe pursuance of barbaric justice\nin the occupation of Manchuria has\nbeen denounced by the resolution of\nthe Council of the League of Nations and by the action of the U.S.A.\nin Invoking the Nine-Power Pact.\nJapan occupies Manchuria at an economic loss. The farmers cannot\ncultivate the soil and the merchants\ncannot conduct business owing to\nthe chaotic state of affairs existing\nthere at the present. Japan can occupy Manchuria but she cannot control It. She reaps no benefit from\nthis occupation and she has to send\nlarge sums of money from her imperial treasury to support the army.\nln this connection Japan faces another difficulty. To raise an additional sum of money to support this\narmy is not an easy problem as the\nJapanese business at large Is on the\nverge of bankruptcy due to the\nworld depression and the economic\nboycott of the Chinese people.\nNapoleon's occupation of Spain\ncaused his downfall. He had to send\na huge sum of money to Spain for\nthe maintenance of his army. But\nNapoleon faced financial difficulties\nat the time because of the continental policy he was pursuing. Japan\nfacing the same situation, views the\nManchurian conquest with alarm.\nShe has to stop the Chinese boycott but how can she do it?\nIn this connection Japan has decided to occupy Shanghai and Nanking so that she can penalize the\nChinese Government and force her\nto sign a treaty to recognize her supremacy in Manchuria and restrict\nthe patriotic movement of the Chinese in the pursuing of the economic boycott policy.\nTo the minds of many people, the\nboycott is a next step to war. I\nshould say in this connection that\nthe boycott policy is fostered by\nJapan's occupation of Manchuria\nand by the voluntary patriotic sentiment of the Chinese people. It is\nperfectly legitimate. Article 16 of\nthe League of Nations has sanctioned\nthis policy as a means of punishing\nthe agressor nation.\nIf Japan should succeed in this\npolicy the world cannot gainsay her\nlegality in Manchuria and she will\nBO'SUN\nTICKETS ON SALE\nFOR SPRING PLAY\n(Continued from page one)\nCHARLES ARMSTRONG\nCharlie Armstrong, after a thorough\ntraining In the chorus of last year's\n\"Pirates of Penzance,\" will be seen\nas the bo'sun in \"H.M.S.

For Coed\nHooked By Thieves\nSomeone wants to go to the Co-ed\nBall pretty badly. Thanks to Eileen\nParkhlU, that someone, is going to\nhave a tough time getting to the\naforementioned ball. Here's' why:\nLast Thursday Eileen had seven\ntickets to the Co-ed. She had heard\nabout our Honor System but after\nall it wouldn't be a bad idea if she\nnoted the numbers on the tickets.\nShe did\u00E2\u0080\u0094and tickets number 201, 203,\n204, 205, 206, 207 and 208 were carefully laid away in the ParkhiU notebook and left on a Caf. table.\nWhen she returned the notebook waa\nthere but the seven \"bids\" had\nflown.\nThis act is co-incident with a forgery at the Science Ball Friday night\nIn checking over the tickets doormen\nfound that four number 207 tickets\nhad been turned in. Examination\nshowed that two of the forgeries\nwere done in India ink and two\nprinted.\nIt may be the depression, but the\nperson who acquired Miss ParkhiU's\ntickets should realize that they will\nbo closely watched and quite useless if presented.\nbe relieved of this powerful pressure of the Chinese\u00E2\u0080\u0094the economic\nboycott.\nAnd having obtained this piece of\nterritory rich in natural resources,\nJapan wil be enabled to realize her\nimperialistic ambition. In the course\nof time she will become the mistress\nof the Pacific Ocean. Then she will\nbe in the position to occupy Australia and the Philllplnes. This will\nconflict with the interests of the\nU.S.A. and England. Another World\nWar will be Inevitable.\nThese are the real motives of Japan within my comprehension. In\nher present bombardment of Shanghai and Nanking, with the Intention\nof occupying these two principal\ncities of China. For the good of\nthe world Japan's imperialistic ambition should be crushed before it\nIs too late. The task is now fallen\nupon the League of Nations. Japan's\nimperialism has gone mad. The\nLeague of Nations' duty Is to cure\nit. Civilized states, have provided\nasylums for the mad. Japan ought\nto be supplied with a similar institution by the League. If the League\nshould do this it is entirely complying with the original will of the\nJapanese government. She was sane\nwhen she became a member of the\nLeague to denounce war. In waging war at present Japan shows heij\nfolly.

Although\nVarsity opened up the scoring, when \"Pi\" Campbell gathered\nin four points in the first two minutes of the game, Ellensburg\ncame right back with an unbeatable offensive which soon had\nthem out in front.' Haney at centre for the visitors dropped in\ncouple of nifty shots that were\na\nticketed for the basket from the\nmoment they left that rangy individual's capable hands.\nThe teachers from over the\nline apparently had an inexhaustible\nrepertoire of hoop plays which enabled them to get away from their\nchecks and threaten the Blue and\nGold basket tune and again. Varsity was compelled to resort to solo\nefforts in order to register on the\nscore sheet the determined attack of\nthe visitors apparently disorganising\nthe home combination.\nWaimsley, Varsity centre, was outweighed and outreached by his opponent Haney, but showed lots of\nfight and held his man well. The\nfirst half ended with Varsity down\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2even points.\nAfter the interval, both teams\nopened up a little more and set an\neven faster pace. It was evident\nfrom the moment the home squad\ntook the floor that coach Arnold\nHenderson had been speaking severely to them about keeping closer\ntabs on their checks. For the remainder of the game the Blue and\nOold stalwarts clung to the burly\nforms of their opponents like limpets, and held them to 11 points\nwhile adding 13 pointa to the U.B.C.\ntotal.\nWith the game apparently on ice,\nEllensburg proved their versatility in\ngiving an exhibition of clever stalling that had the home fans on edge.\nAlthough they made only the faintest pretense of keeping up the attack, the visitors yet kept the ball\nmoving In a manner which Illustrated the thorough understanding that\nexisted between every member of\ntheir squad.\nVarsity began a series of rushing\ntactics which soon forced the visitors to come to grips, and led by\n\"Fighting\" Bob Osborne staged a\nrally which had the crowd on their\nfeet. Laurie Nicholson netted a beautiful running shot from the left, and\nWaimsley broke Into the score sheet\nwith a neat basket.

Varsity suffered\nheavily in the mixed games, but\nfared better in the Mens' and Ladies'\ndoubles.\n* # *\nVarsity's \"B\" team will entertain\non their home floor to-morrow night\nat 7:30 when their guests will be\nthe North Vancouver aggregation.\nMEN'S GRASS HOCKEY\nThere will be a practice tomorrow\non the grass hockey field at 3:30\np.m. sharp.\nSOCCERMEN\nLOSE 3-0\nTO REGENTS\nPlaying on the Powell Street tea\nof mud Regents cinched first place\nin the league by a 3-0 win over Varsity, on Saturday afternoon.\nThe field was in such bad shape\nthat it required several minutes to\nget accustomed. During this time\nboth teams pressed but were un-\nsuccesful in scoring. The heavy ball\nmade clearances weak, and prevented\nthe play from shifting from end to\nend quickly. After about ten minutes, Tyrell, Regent centre-forward,\nput in a slow grounder from outside\nthe penalty area, which fooled Frattinger In the Varsity net. Within ten\nminutes, the same player repeated\nwith a similar shot. Save for these\ntwo shots, Frattinger had been unbeatable, making several fine saves,\nand clearing splendidly. Play from\nthen to half-time was even, with\nVarsity falling down with their\npasses, spoiling many promising\nmovements in this way. The Blue\nand Gold boys were sure on defense\nbut could not make a great deal of\nhead-way on attack. Half-time found\nRegents holding a 2-0 lead.\nShortly before the interval, Jock\nWaugh was forced to leave the field\nwith an injured leg, and he was replaced by Bud Cooke on resumption.\nIt was a bad break for Varsity, as\nWaugh's weight was a valuable asset. Play In this half was a continuation of that of the first stanza. Varsity were passing better, and were\ndangerous on many occasions. However, it remained for Regents to\nscore the only goal of the period,\nTyrel snapping up a fumbled goal-\nkick to beat one back and give Frattinger no chance. Shortly after this\nKozoolin broke through on a pretty\nplay but was charged heavily from\nbehind. The referee, who had been\nvery lax In the matter of Regent\nfouls, signalled for play to continue,\ndespite the protest of the crowd.\nFrom then to the end Varsity pressed hard, but failed to score.\nFor Varsity, Costain and McGill\nwere outstanding, with everybody\ngiving their best. The field, however, was In no condition for play\nand prevented good football. Nevertheless, the Varsity squad never gave\nup, and were fighting to the last\nwhistle.\n,Jhe team: Frattinger, McGill,\nGrant, Wright, Costain, McDougal,\nWaugh, (Cooke), Munday, Kozoolin,\nD.

Towards the end of\nthe canto however, Fish for the ex-\nstudent took on himself to do some\nscoring and batted In a rebound.\nTwo minutes later he shot a floater\nfrom the blue line to, make the score\ntwo nothing for the black and yellow.\nThe second period saw a lot of\nrushes on the part of both teams but\nthe plays were broken up and the\nsession ended' scoreless.\nWith the score two-nothing against\nthem, Varsity began the final canto\nplaying four men up and one defense man at centre-ice.

Sans\nMayers, Lee and Straight, the home\ncrew, held the visitors to 26-21. The\nnext night Ellensburg took the Adanacs, who have been in hot competition all year, by 28-21.\n* * \u00E2\u0080\u00A2\nThat \"man-in-the-hole\" style of\nplay had Varsity completely baffled\nin the first half. Sutphln of Ellensburg would take the ball on the foul\nline with his back to the opposing\nbasket. On a criss-cross play his\ntwo guards would work in and he\nwould slip one of them the ball and\nthen make interference for their\nshot. Should these players be too\nwell checked, Sutphln would pivot\nand make a one-handed shot. And\nhis 8 points boosted the Ellensburg\ntotal plenty. Ask Tony Osborne!\n* \u00C2\u00AB *\nJimmy Bardsley heralded his entry\ninto fast company with a nice basket from the side. Jimmy worked\ninto the Varsity plays,as if he'd been\nwith them all season.\nPi Campbel went about the best of\nlast year's squad. Laurie Nicholson\ndidn't show for very long but garnered 4 points while he was on.\nDoug Mclntyre converted one of the\nbest shots of the night when he\nscored from just past center.

Towards the close of the game\nthe people sitting on the south side\nof the gym were handed a real\nlaugh.
