The Da l second Basketball squad
took their second straight wi n in t he

Black hoopsters were not to be defeated
and surcessfully held off their opponents
unti l the fina l whistle.
llugh Ross and Dm·idson were the
stars for the Tigers, between the two
of them they tallied all the Dal points.
Da,·idson scored si teen points and Ross
ten. On the defence Tom Parker showed up well and should be well up among
the candidate~ for t he first team. Ross
and Davidson, on t he form they haYe
displayed to date should be pretty safe
bets for berths on the Senior squad.
T he Tigers ra n up an early lead in the
opening session and when it ended they
were on the long end of a 17-9 score.
The playing of the team in this period
was splendid and should they keep up
the good work another championship
for the Dal hoopstcrs appears to be in
~ight.
In the second frame the "Y"
fi,·e started a rally which carried them
within one lone basket of tying the
score but just as they seemed to be in a
position wherein they might have changeel the result of the game the Ttgers
bucked up anrl I he Reds were turned
back, with the final score 26-21 against

Dal are now tie with t he \Vanderers
for first place in the league. These
two teams will meet in the near future
and needless to say a great game is
expected. In Saturday's game the
Tigers were without the services of
l'ottie who had been p!aying a good game
at relief guard. Pottie had the misfortune to injure his hand in practise
and it is likely that he will be unable to
play for some time. The Tigers lined
up as follows:
Blenkinsop, Goudge, Davidson, 16;

H ARVARD I1 1725
T he other day l chanced to meet
Two ladies of the bourgeoisie
And t hey were wondrous strange to see.
One was tall and very thin
Quite like a slightly bended pin
All covered o'er by Time's soft tread
With rust most delicately spread.
Though one could easily surmise
That forty years ago the skies
Beheld a stately graceful belle
\Vho played croquet and waltzed quite
well.
And as she walked she bent her head
O'er her companion who though red
And rotund had the busy air
Of knowing whether madam's hair
\\'ere all her own or if the maid
Had twenty beaux to one and stayed
Awake at night to figure out
!low i\Irs. Jones and Mrs. Stout
Could quite afford to get new furs.
Their old ones were as good as hers.
And as she walked she gave her ear
A perky twist so she might hear
The whispered words of her lean friend
, or miss a single one yet lend
Her eyes to alit hat happened near
And half to look around for fear
Sone one should hear the spicy bit
Of news and tell another. It
:\lust surely not be known. Of course
She'll tell her sir.ter but the force
Of all the king's fine cavalry
And all his men could never be
Enough to make her breathe a word
To anyone. She must have heard
The sa\\ that women cannot keep
A secret. Just how light or deep
Their thoughts were I should like to
know
But never shall. 'Tis strange but so.
