I Big Game Is Scheduled As a change from potatoes -try volley-ball! This from jack Bloom, erstwhile master of the pastime in question. Pielmeier, a protege of the master, tells a story concern- ing Bloom while the latter was teaching the Weasel funda- mentals of the game. Wl1ile I was dressing for my first lesson, tells Piel- meier, Instructor Bloom was giving me the low-down and high-up on the dynamic game of volley-hall. VVhen l came on the floor, a startling spec- tacle confronted me. There, in one grand heap, were two howling halls, four polo mal- lcts, two suits of armor, eight yards of lead pipe, a half doz- en moukey-wreuchcs, two sir- ens and a pair of twin-holiby- horses. And I thought I was going to learn to play volley- ball. Says Brother jack, Hey! where you going? Hey! Hey?

LOCAL BOY MAKES GOOD PRY, OUTSTANDING IN PERFORMANCE Olympic Entries Increased This is the story of two of the most spectacular perform- ers Normal is planning on sending to Los Angeles fHOH1C for Delicate Peoplej. One, the taller of the two, is as daring and sensational an ar- tist as ever came out of the North, he specializes in work- ing the flying rings and the horizontal liar Calso any inno- cent students who happen alongj. The other, the more reserved and the shorter of the pair, amazes and astounds thousands by his In-eatlt-tale ing and melodramatic stunts on the parallel liars and the mat. Both are now in arduous training for the approaching Olympic Games, they are looked upon as Uncle Sam's mainstays and upon their shoulders rests the burden of carrying the uation's hopes to the fore. Amcrica's Last Hopes! l-Iats off and give these local lmoys a good hand- Parsou Nelson and Mitt Mnto. Bloom, looking out window -l see it's getting warmer. Geoghan, from under 8 blan- kets-How can you tell? Bloom-I see a man with only l overcoat on. - Athletes' Foot Race One of the features in the coming Olympics will he the Athlete's foot race. The list of entries is quite long since 4 out of 5 have it. The prize is a gold Before the start of the Mar- athon event in the track meet held at Brosius-on-the-Lake Cusually in the lakej, Pry- lmylski was prancing around like a well-primed steed, and act- ing the part of a truck horse by eating lumps of sugar, and downing Bromos by the dozen, and eating watermelon on the half shell. The gun! Pry was off like a whippet! He passed the quarter mile mark, a quar- ter mile ahead of the field. VVhat's all the shouting for? Oh, the gun wasn't even tired. Good old Pry! Back again for a restart. They're oft! Pry goes down in a heap-he's up, he's up, he's up! And then he took the road to Milwaukee. It was a half hour before the officials finally straightened him out. And he won the race- such crust! Are you the gentleman who gave my hrother a clog last week? I am the man. Well, mother says to come and take them all back. Ye Editor After reading this, I rather imagine that you will think it is a lot of silly Iiosh-believe it or not-however, do not mis- .ake our intentions-this is only humor-no sarcasm meant.

Absent-minded Professor : Ah, yesg and did you? During last summer, Miss Alma Hilmer, noted normal student, visited Europe and Germany ior the third time. This latest trip being made by gyroplane, the last two were on foot. The St. Louis Kid spent some time in England where she horsecl around with the Prince of VVails-yes, .sdward fell off his pony again, prob- ably he fell for Alma. XfVhile in Switzerland, Miss Hilmer visited some cheese factories. but left in a hurry- the atmosphere being too strong for her. Bye the bye she picked up a quaint purple and ffolo Austrian cheese- hound which will be her soror- ity's mascot. Miss Hilmer plans to cross the ocean next summer-this time in a barrel.

That night she was in tears when she opened the door for her husband. I've been insult- ed by your mother. My mother! he exclaimed. But Alice-she's miles away. l know, but a letter came for you this morning and I opened it. He looked stern. I see, but where does the insult come in ? In the postscript, she an- swered, it said: 'Dear Alice, don't forget to give this letter to George'. Here and There VVhat a beaner Bob Yoke pulled in taking roll the other day!

Nevertheless it has caught the fancy of most of the stu- dents, regardless of age, weight, color of eyes, experi- ence, etc., etc. The technique of this sim- ple game, and by the way, it is simple, even the youngest child can operate it without a quiver, to get back to the technique- providing it hasn't walked away in the meanwhile-is as I said some time ago-quite simple, in fact, I feel that I ought hardly to go into great detail regarding it. The main theme song is - Paddle Your Own Canoe , ac- companied by vocal effects from Mineo and Kreuter. Hoss Race Results The big Indianapolis Darby which was run off yesterday, was one huge success.
