Coast Guardsmen Tomorrow Night
Fifteen University of Miami boys will trek down to the Miami High gym tomorrow night at 8 o’clock and open the U.’s basketball season of 1944, against the unbeaten Captain of the Port Coast Guard team.
Our starting lineup has a lot of talent led by Captain and Forward Don Fink, who has been picked for three straight years on the Gold Ball all-tournament
Forward Arnold Tucker and Center Hal Schuler were both chosen for two years on the Florida all-high team. Paul Vaughn, guard, made the state team in Ohio while in high school there, and Guard Flip Rosen had a record of twenty points average per game when at the Florida Military Academy.
The other ten boys won’t let the regular team down when their turn comes to substitute, for they have a wealth of talent also. The substitutes are John Hardeman, Ben Boesch, Ed Feinstein, John Christie, Paul Walker, George Mills, Dick Meheroff, Dick Lyons, Bob Traurig, and Bill Dawson. Manager of the team is Don McIntosh.
On the following Tuesday the University team will play Boca Raton Air Base at Boca Raton.
All students should make an effort to be at the Miami High gym tomorrow night to cheer our boys on to a win and break the Coast Guard’s winning streak of sixteen games. Our players are an experienced and determined group and should have a successful season ahead of them with the school’s support.—DJ
that theirs will be the winning group and will walk away after the contest with the Zeta Tau Alpha trophy. Trick plays are in abundance, being called by such titles as the “Susie-Q,” “Triple Reverse,” “Rocket Spin,” and “Chio’s Doom.' ’
Head coach of the Chi O’s, Leon Schultz, says he is confident that his team will round out in tip-top shape for the game. He is depending on the experienced veterans from last year—Mary Wells Milam, Sue Ogden, and Frances Sansone. Coach Schultz has two promising newcomers' in Libby Birt and Jane Gifford.
The Kappa’s coach, Bud Salvatore, is also counting on stars returning from last year, Lee Carpenter, Bobbie Rinehimer and Sari Jane Blinn, and a strong line headed by Virginia Read and Jerry Rasmussen.
Besides the color of the game itself there will be additional entertainment during the playing and between halves. Both sororities have regular cheering sec-(Continued on Pa^e 5)
DZ's to Choose Beau of the Ball
Just to break the monotony of picking queens for all affairs, the Delta Zetas are having a Beau of the Ball dance on Saturday, Jan. 29. The Beau of the Ball will be a boy chosen by representatives from each sorority and the independents. His reward, the DZ’s ain’t atellin’.
The dance is being given by the pledges at the Coral Gables Woman’s club from 8 to 12 p.m. Girls break, say the girls, will be the rule, and both girl and boy stags are invited for the sum of seventy-five cents.
For entertainment there will be the V-12 band and Tina Lynn doing the vocals. Refreshments will be on the house.
A Challenge-
My Dear Editor:
I trust that what I ask be not construed as an alternative method which might secure for me the publicity which anyone such as myself, under the present circumstances, might be desirous to obtain.
I use this particular form only upon your unbiased advice, and its underlying purpose is purely of the nature of a request and a challenge.
No student government election, during my lifetime at the University, has openly and uninhibitively presented its candidates, in person and idea, to the whole of the student body.
Therefore, I not only ask, meekly, that the candidates of both parties agree to address the student body, before elections—but to be honest, I challenge and demand it 1
As challenger, I have assumed the responsibility of arranging tbe place and the date, if it meet with the approval of the other candidates, as Friday, of next, January 28 in the Cardboard theatre, at 12 ;30 p.m. or 2:30 p.m.
I thank you, humbly if I be allowed, for the detached and rational manner in which you have conducted our student publication in the past, and even more so in the light of your strong emotional attachment to a very strong political party.
