The boys played a total of twenty-sev«p games, while the girls had a schedule of seventeen games. The boys team had a bad slump during the month of January but more then made up for it , by their brilliant team work and fast passing in the games of the last half of the season. The girls team gradually improved during the season. During the last several weeks the team found itself. This team was forced to change its lineup in every game, due to injuries to some of the girls, and the change of personnel from game to game. Never-the-less the girls played a commendable game at all times. Be it said to tlie credit of the girl s that they always played a clean, sportsmanlike game.

Of cou rse it is under-stood! that when a tea m goes into combat with this combination on Chestnut street floor, the winners will be no other than the home five. "The race is not always to the swift ," neither in th e same respect are the fruits of victory always lo the deserving. Many teams have discovered this truth after grappling with (he Indies in Chestnut St. Auditorium. We do not mean to infer that the Indies are inferior to the Olivets but do condend that the Indies are fa vored by a chain of circumstances that are ra rely found elsewhere and which act as a terrific handi-cap to a visiting team. They met in seasons gone by all of the Eastern League fives in this same Hall and without apparent difficulty put th e skids under them, yet when at the start of this present season they were given a berth in the Eastern League, they couldn 't stand the pace. They played probabl y six games, all of which were lost, and then con-sidered independent basketball was big enough for them, anil the franchise was moved elsewhere. Consider the case of the referee. Is it or is it not customary for any team, no matter where one follows the game, for the referee to be so closely affiliated with the team as is Horace Geisel with the Indies? Not for a thought would we infer that Horace is not four-square, but why is it that every game played on Chestnut street f loor, in which he referees, is attended by such a display of disapproval as evidenced by the loud and unremitting chorus of hisses. Is it afterall simply a different fashion of registering applause or does it manifest that the audience considers his methods of officiating are tainted with inefficiency and partiality ? Then there are other handicaps of unusual nature whic^i combine to make it almost an impossible task for a visiting team, rega rdless of their caliber to register a win on this floor. Therefor, we agree t h a t "The Hershey lads were not quite in a class with the Harris-burg combination," as is found in The Patriot of Monthly, March 27. But we teel confident that a different story would be told if the Oli vets had the opportunity of meeting the Indies on any floor outside of Harrisburg with a positively neutral official who has never been the mark for a hissing audi ence. We are not so rankly partisan as to declare the Indi es wouldn 't have a chance but do believe they would have lo play as they have never played bef ore in order to win. We're mighty proud of the Olivets. They are just a group of boys, th e youngest of whom is sixteen, anil not one of them more than twenty-two. They play for the mere sport of it not for any commercial or pecuniary interest. They've won two consecutive pennants in the Inter-County League races and have done so entirel y on their merits. Whether at home or on oilier floors they have played the game clean and fair and we are furthermore proud to say thai never has a hiss been heard on the local floor.

Olivets Defeated But Made Indies Travel Fast Pace HERSHEY CENTRA! THEATRE No more appropriate litl« could be given a play dealing with the perils and excitement of a newspaper reporter's life than "go and get it. ' And this is ju st the one thai Marshall Neilan has given his newest big photoplav— "Go and Get It ," which comes to Ihe Centra l Theatre on Saturday, April 1. When a mysterious crime lias been ^com-mitted and the entire City is on its toes for the solution—when riots and blood shed are raging—when grea t strikes lire pending- it is then that the reporter is culled to Ihe city editor 's desk and told to "go and get it ". And the chance arc one hundred to one— he'll gel il. He may be Ihe worse for wea r upon his return but he'll have the story . And such is the case in the new Neilan picture—Kirk Connell y is told of a series of most mvsterious crimes and told to get (hi-story . After a lot of the most fascinating and exciting adventures Connelly not only returns with the story, but he gets the beauti-ful mystery girl as well. It 's some picture . A Christie Conedy entitled "Short and Snappy " completes this bill. Tom Mix will appea r ut Ihe Central Theatre on Tuesday, April 4. in a Fox picture "Trailin '." The story involves a deep mystery affecting severa l lives, and is based on Max Brand's novel of the same name. Mix is first discovered in a drawing room with his wealthy father , anil those who never have seen the Western star in a Tuxedo will be curious to see him in this picture. Later he goes to the-West and is mistaken for an ordinary tenderfoot, but the folks out there soon discover their mistake. Mix shows them a few things about horsemanship and fi ghting. There is plent y of gun-play, pretty horse-manship and snappy action in "Trailin ," to say nothing of a love romance in which the beautiful Eva Novak figures. Mix is credited with another winner in this new vehicle.
