Senior Hockey Team
Wins In First Game
Opening 'the interclass hockey
tournament, the strong senior team
defeated the sophomores, 6 to 1, i
yesterday afternoon. The game
started out with a rush and was a
lively contest throughout. Zauer,
Saubon, and Hartwig were out-
standing for the seniors. Moore,
Eaman, and Shaeffer played web
against them.-
In a well matched game between7
the freshmen and juniors, the lat-
ter went down in defeat, 4 to 1.
Grabrowsky starred for the juniors,
while Healey won two points for
the freshmen. It
Represented by only seven
players, the Motley club defeated
the freshman second team in a
rather slow game by a score of 3
to 2. Berkowitz played an excep-
tionally good game for the Motley
club.
Graves said, "the strain that the
'jazz age' puts upon the body in
the matter of lost sleep, night-
rushing, and late hour dancing
taxes the heart heavily. Statistics
show heart failure is on a heavy
increase in America. This increase
has been noted since the war.

"Should I tell you the story of a
true romance," queried Countess
Von Luckner, who possesses an old
Swedish title of her own, besides
that of her illustrious German hus-
band, as she shook her long bead
earrings at me. "Well, I will tell
you. It began like this.
"Once when I. was traveling in
Europe with my parents, I became
sick and went to a hospital in Ber-
lin, and my mother brought me
nice things all the time I was there,
and among them was a book, 'The
Sea-Devil,' by Count Felix von
Luckner." The countess sent a
quick little glance over to the other
side of the room where her tallE
husband was busily autographing
pictures for a crowd of reporters.
"And oh, I did like it so much,"
she continued, flashing her smile
back at me. "I looked at the pic-
tures of the count in uniform and
I said in that minute, 'That's a real
man. I will marry him!' But when
and stepped in to get a cup of cof-
fee, the first man I saw was the
count sitting at a table with an-
other man. I was so thrilled! The
cards had come true! But when I
looked at him, he turned so pale,
that I was scared, and turned away.
Before I had taken two steps, the
count came rushing across the
floor, and just turned me around,
and led me into the room. He was
thrilled too, I guess.
"That night he gave me a little
package and told me not to open
it until I was on the train, and to
think hard, if I could give the same
back to him. It was a little gar-
net birthstone in the shape of a
heart."
"No, I didn't send a heart back
to him," she laughed at my ques-1
tion, "but I did send a little anchor1
birthstone, to show him that his'
heart was anchored. Wasn't that
just as good?"

SMITH GAINS VOTES
IN CENTR1AL OISTRICT~
NEW YORK: Great progress has
been made in lining up the women
to support Governor Smith in the
eight states of the Democratic cen-
tral region with headquarters in
St. Louis, according to Miss Mary
W. Dawson, Director of Women's
activities for the region, in a state-
ment issued recently through the
Democratic National committee.
The two reasons she gave for
the strong drift toward Governor
Smith in this section were/
first, a favorable reaction among
women to the visit of Governor and
Mrs. Smith to the Middle West, and
second, belief that the effort to stir
women's antagonism to the Demo-
cratic Presidential nominee through
an appeal to bigotry and prejudice
had acted as a boomerang.
