Toggle With Rollins College Is Expected To Be Hotly Contested
The University of Miami basketball team will swing into action tgainst the strong Rollins Tar qaistet Saturday night to open the local basketball season. Coach McCann will handle the des-of the Hurricane cagers this succeeding Art Webb.
The Hurricanes will start the with the best squad in if not in the South. The nes last year won the 1 state championship by tting Florida, 40 to 39, on her floor after the State aggrega had put the skids under South' era the night before.
McCann loses but two men from Ht year’s squad, McGuire and larbonneau. McGuire’s place will k « hard one to fill, for the fa-little guard who wore the ¡i colors for the past two is considered one of the best in the South. Rod Ashman, iD-state forward and captain of hit year’s champs, will be back, [with Solie, Catha, Franklin, Bleier, in and Courtney. This team expected to sweep through their nents for the greatest basket-season the University has ever Hal Oram, who teamed with uirt • on that great freshman two years ago, has returned will probably take over Mc-McGuire’s vacant position.
I Several newcomers look as if they will make the grade and Mc-Csnn is giving them all a crack st the game. Mercurio and Younts hive improved lots over last year sad are fighting hard for a right to wear the coveted first team uniform. Charley Wilkinson, Pete ley, Dan Hill, Kaveney, Bill ibrough, Femandino, Macbeth, and English also look prom-
king.
f Rollins will come here with the edge on Miami, since they have llsyed several games and their team work should be smoother. Miami will have to rely upon Ash-Ban and company to pile up enough points to beat Rollins without the necessary team work. McCann is working the squad hard in order to have five men who can to in there Saturday night and beat Rollins. It looks as if Kim-koogh and Stanton will start at forwards, with Ashman as center.

Professor
Dr. Cyrus F. Wicker, professor of international law and chairman of the Latin-American reception committee of Miami’s Air Meet, acted as host to Latin-America’s delegates during their stay in Miami for the All-American Air Convention held this week.
Latin-America was represented at the meet by Diego Matute, R., consul general of Venezuela, with headquarters at New Orleans, and Laureano Lopez, vice-president of the Bank of Commerce, Havana, who was the official representative for the meet for the Cuban government and for the Cuban National Tourist commission.
' special stunt, and have available such services to the people of Coral
Gables who can use college labor outside of class hours.
College fellows show themselves to be more versatile than the average person supposes. Such posi-
tions ‘ as caddying, chauffering, washing cars, caring for lawns, wielding a vacuum cleaner and flitting into the kitchens as a human «^shwasher the morning after the night before are some of the professional positions that college fellowi excel in. You have heard of the beautiful lady who invites her friends to Sunday dinner and looks Mke a dream of heaven in the dgnwing room when they arrive, and about the time the petticoat contingent is consumed with curiosny as to how she does it, in comes' a collegiate looking fellow from the kitchen, debonair and handsome in an apron, and announces that ‘dinnah’ is ready.
The £reen Frog, perhaps, could be considered the missing link, proving itself beneficial alike to the students of the University, as well as to the people of Coral Ga bles.
University Students Work At Airport Daring Meet
Several of the students of the University were employed at the Municipal Airport during the Air meet. Their jobs consisted of helping to maneuver the planes into position after flights. Randall Butler, Francis and Ralph Hauser, Jimmie O'Brien, Austin Mills, Pirn Kimbrough, and Billy Bucknam were the fortunate boys to be on the “inside”. The pilots were kind enough to let the boys have a ride to see how it felt.

Dr. Belaunde Will Conduct Forum to be Held at Roney Plaza
The University of Miami will conduct a Round Table on Pan American problems on eight succeeding Friday evenings, beginning with January 11. These conferences will be held in the parlors of the Roney Plaza Hotel, Miami Beach, beginning at 8:30 in the evening.
The Round Table will be under the general direction of Dr. Victor Andres Belaunde, professor of Latin American History and Institutions at the University.
Dr. Belaunde will open the question which is to be under discos-sion eaqji evening with a short address m which he will attempt to state the problem and to separate it into parts for discussion. He will usually be followed by one or two other speakers more or less conversant with the problem or issue, after which the entire matter will be thrown open for general round table discussion.
Dr. Belaunde has had a rich international and Pan-American experience, and with the background that he has it is certain that you will find what he has to say very much worth while. He was for some years professor of Modern Philosophy and History at the University of Lima, Peru. He was minister for Peru to Uruguay, Charge d’ Affaires for Peru in Germany and Bolivia. He was chief of the Peruvian Boundary Commission, an official lecturer at the Institute of Spain and at the Sorbonne.
GLEE CLUB TO APPEAR AGAIN
Program to Be Sponsored By City of Miami Beach
The University Glee Club will make their first appearance in Miami Beach, January 24, at Flamingo Park. There will be no admission for this program, which is sponsored by the city of Miami Beach. This will be, perhaps, the last appearance of the club in Miami or vicinity; thus for students of the University this is the last chance to hear and see the club in action.
The week following this program, the club will give another one at Homestead and also Fort Lauderdale. These two appearances will lead into the second tour of two weeks that the club will make. During this tour the Glee Club will take in the capitol of the state, Gainesville and probably Stetson and Rollins. The whole

Delegate at Meeting
U. of M. To Meet Many Teams Of Athletic Association
Application of the University of Miami for membership in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association was unanimously approved at the annual convention of this organisation at DeLand, Fla., this summer.
At the opening of the University of Miami in October, 1926, the athletic management endeavored to organize and adopt an athletic policy which would be acceptable to the existing regulations which are maintained by practically all leading colleges and universities in the United States and in this short time the University of Miami gained recognition from the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association, and has been functioning under modified rules and regulations from this governing board.
The S. I. A. A. is the largest intercollegiate athletic aasociation anywhere and is recognized aa one of the outstanding associations and many* of its rules have been adopted by other associations.
Miami can be very proud of her new institution in gaining this distinction in two and one-half years’ time, and at the annual convention held at DeLand, Fla., when there were present approximately one hundred delegates, including presidents of colleges and universities, faculty chairmen of athletics, directors of athletics and coaches, when they unanimously approved the application of the University of Miami for membership. This affiliation means much to the promotion of intercollegiate athletics here in the southeastern part of Florida.
The University of Miami ia the farthest south institution of higher^ learning in the United States by two hundred miles that is playing football and other intercollegiate sports. This affiliation establishes a rating for the University awl permits the scheduling of other colleges where heretofore special permission has had to be requested and approved when Miami desired athletic competition with other colleges and universities.
Since the University of Miami will adhere strictly to their existing regulations this affiliation will probably cause a hardship on the new institution, inasmuch as next fall varsity athletic teams will be composed only of upperclassmen. Freshmen teams now will be developed; competition being arranged for the freshmen with other freshmen college teams and the local and state high schools.
When the University of Miami representative attended the recent convention at DeLand he was offered more football dates than could be accommodated; some of these applications coming from some of the outstanding teams of the association. Next year’s football schedule, which is practically complete, will provide two games sway from home and will open the football season one week earlier than it has ever attempted.
