Alpha Xi Delta, 18; Delta Gam- ma, 10. This, the opening game of the season was marked by fast play- ing. Both teams were in fine condi- tion after two weeks of practice and there were several outstanding players on each team. Alpha Gamma Delta, 21; Mosher 1, 4. Alpha Gamma Delta had a well organized team on the floor for the opening of the basketball tourna- ment taking an easy victory from the Mosher players. Kappa Delta, 15; Zeta Tau Alpha, 13. In this game neither team could take a lead. It was hard fought, marked by fast plays and excellent teamwork on both sides. Theta Phi Alpha, 35; Alpha Delta Pi, 3. The forwards on the Theta Phi Alpha team did fine combination work completely out laying the losing team. All the wealth of contrast be- tween the customs and costumes of# the eighteenth and nineteenth cen- turies will be present in the annual Christmas program which opens tonight in the Lydia Mendelssohn theater. The stately strains of the minuet in Moliere's "Les Precieuses Ridicules" will vie with the rollick- ing air of a country dance in Dick- en's immortal "Pickwick," but the spirit of gaiety will be common to both of them. The costumes present a remark- able study in contrasts. In the French farce, the gorgeous trap- pings of the romantic era prevail. Valentine B. Windt, who appears as the Marquise, is beautiful to behold in a creation of gold velvet, with knee breeches, lacecuffs, and an amazing plumed hat which gives him an altogether dashing air. Katherine Kratz, as one of the affected misses, is garbed in an elaborate costume of black velvet, with a long train, and an awe- inspiring high lace collar. Inathe Dickens classic, Mildred Todd wears an unusual costume of white satin with an intricately quilted petti- coat. The stage setting will contribute much to the atmosphere, having been designed after the manner of Gordon Craig. The huge cyclorama has been utilized to fullest advan- tage, and an unusually beautiful 'lighting effect will be obtained EASTERN COLLEGE HAS NEWSYSTEM Freedom in Study Emphasized by Women's School. Photograph by Doris Ulmann is having lived intensely, expressing a legend which carries with it stme phase of life, some dominant much more than the literal signi-- quality or power. Mrs. Ulmann will ficance of the words. Everyone t no pictures of actors for they knows the commercial studio where I do I3- wish character to show in one goes through the ordeal of "having a picture taken." Most studios are nothing but four walls, a few chairs, screens, and tripods. Doris Ulmann, who belongs to no commercial photographer's union, lives and works in an apartment, high above Park Avenue, where the "sitter" finds an army of chairs and couches upholstered in red, Oriental bronzes and pewter bowls, generously filled with all kinds of cigarettes. According to the time of day one may be served with sand- wiches, or tea. This photographer uses no me- chanical appartus to hold your head in an unnatural position. You select your own chair, your own position, according to your desire. i You continue to smoke, play, read, or think-as you will. In the mean- time Mrs. Ulmann studies you. You do not realize that your picture is being taken for she entertains you with anecdotes. Among the people whose pictures she has taken are Henry Van Dyke, S. S. Van Dine, E. V. Lucas, John Galsworthy, Thornton Wilder, Oli- ver La Farge, Vincent Sheehan, Waldo Frank, Esther Forbes, Blair Niles, and John Livingston Lowes. Some are greatly pleased with their portraits, others are not. Ellen Glasgow was not-in fact she asked that the plates be destroyed. Others besides literary people are Helen Keller, Mei Lan-fang, and Angna Enters. Some years ago Mrs. Ul- mann did a book of portraits of the Medical Faculty of the John! Professor Browdcasks j thelir 1'aces and she does not care for merely an attractive photo- graph. In comparing men and women she says, "Men are usually less self-conscious than women; women often have preconceived notions of how they want to look. However, if a man is self-conscious he is a hundred times worse than the most self-conscious woman.", Doris Ulmann was born and edu- cated in New York City. She stud- ied to be a teacher and specialized, in psychology. For a term she went to law school. Photography was undertaken first as a hobby, an excuse to do something with her hands when her mind was tired. Now no other hand but hers touches the pictures and she jeal- ously guards the magic combina- tion which gives her finished portraits a richness and depth not found elsewhere. -U Enjoyyour trip home!

Gas affords the most economical method of producing heat, and thus promotes lower costs and longer profits. Candy making is a chemical operation.
