The pep squad has been reorgan-
ized under the direction of W. C.
Watts and Miss Elizabeth Lomax.
The group is working busily on a
drill for the basket ball tournament
on Friday and Saturday of this week.
It is an unique drill composed of
about twenty girls dressed in white
'Uniforms with red and white sweat-
ers alternated among them. The
group marches onto the court in
single file and after going across
the court divide into two lines, still
single file, gfter going around, the
two lines come together forming one
line two abreast. They next "march
four abreast and finally reach a
wagon wheel formation. They pivot
around in this formation ahd after
coming into a straight line, thfyj-ft'Ipe, Cecilio Bajo, Jurge Elbra Cos

only is his . vigor physical but mental
and moral also.
Again and again Dr. Francis has
been defined as a sure cure for those
people “who not like lectures.” Once
heard he is never forgotten.
The lecture number of a Lyceum
course is usually that number least
attended. This lecture, however, is
very unusual and said to be one of
the most interesting numbers of the
course.

The finest picture of many years
“7th HEAVEN”
With Janet Gaynor and Charles
Farrell in the stellar roles—
This is the photodrama of which
the New York American said, “It
is packed with beauty, romance,
thrills,”
And of which the New York
Telegram spoke as leaving no
“moment free from episode that
swings the heart ’twixt tears and
cheers.”
While the New York Times pro-
claimed, “This picture grips you
from the very beginning,” an op-
inion backed up by the New York
Graphic with the statement, “Its
two leading players mesmerized
an audience that sat spellbound
throughout.”
