After losing the first three games, the Bulldogs tenacity showed up, and harder practice was rewarded by victories. Tommy Row, the only Senior player, was elected Honorary Captain.

A hilarious comedy of three acts, The Professor Proposesproved to be an outstanding hit as staged by the Class of 1943 on November 21. Mias Isabel Guest directed the play. The plot revolves about the trials of two college juniors who seem to have a unique ability of becoming involved in all manner of ri- diculous situations. Geraldine, determined to land a man for her friend, Emily, creates a legendary and romantic figure called Jack, the source of this inspiration being a picture left in their room bv an earlier occupant. Complications set in when the original of the picture appears in the flesh as the new professor. Bert Cornell supplies the college love element,while many a hearty laugh is pro- voked by Bob Flint and the three B s--Bettyl Belle, and Bonnie. Mildred, the maid, adds a bit of the ridiculous in snappy style. Complete disaster is averted finally,due to the appearance of Hose McKenny, wife of the new professor.
