NOT MASHED
Hurricanes Are Unable To Conquer Mississippi Eleven
The strong Millsaps eleven from Mississippi triumphed over the Hurricanes 31-0 at the Stadium last Saturday afternoon. Led by their captain, Crawford, his team mates romped over the Miami team m a very decisive manned to add to the already gloomy afternoon.
The first quarter was a “corker” as-Coach Brett would say. The Hurricanes appeared at last as if

changes and the Miami offense bad .carried them to Millsaps 20 yard line. And then came the ¿ad news. On an attempted lateral pass Boswell, crack Millsaps tackle, sifted through and intercepted the lateral pass and raced 80 yards for a touchdown, as his team mates cut down any possible Miami tacklers.
When Boswell made his successful run for a touchdown it looked as if the Miami players wanted to give him a handicap to encourage his dash for the goal. Boswell was almost 20 yards to the fore when the Miami players started after him only to find the big lumbering tackle didn’t need that much of a handicap to win the race.
About this time Solie and Peevy engaged in a little side bout of bpxing and ducking each other’s head in the mud holes of the field which refereC Hill couldn’t help but notice. After giving Peevey the once over, both were banished from the game.
Added to this was the injury to Kimbrough’s leg which will keep him out of the lineup the rest of the year. This weakened the Miami defense, and the reason for the many scores the second half can be laid to these facts.
Towards the end of the half, Millsaps started another drive down the field, only to have the whistle blow when they had reached the 15 yard line. Crawford and Bilbo were taking advantage of the weakened condition of me center of the line, and rarely were they stopped in their attempts.
During the second half it was just a question of time how many touchdowns they would score. Frequent substitutions were made, yet Millsaps always had a team in there that was able to score. Their off tackle plays were worked in a brilliant way and it was usually the Miami secondary that had io stop the advances. Courtney l-iayeu a great defensive game, a-oiv than once it was Clifi who aitod before the runner and his uuenerence and yet figured a way i- uring the Millsap runner tc ,-arth.
ft was the same Cliff who was gaming plenty of yardage for the Hurricanes in their exchange of punts anu at the same time gained mure yardage than any other Miami bacK. Cliff also tossed some ii.Le passes. Several times if the i-itiver had been properly pro-.ected there would have been more . ompleted passes.
The off tackle plays resulted in *our mure touchdowns during the econd half. Crawford, who proved •o be the Millsaps greatest offen-ive threat, counted tor two more luring the onslaught. Wright and Aelch broke into the scoring col-Jmn at the same time.
Their backfield was well balanced and every one knew the art of blocking. It was their method of knocking «own the second-aiy Miami defense that made their Ml tackle plays so successful at all limes, when they resorted to a pass attack two oi tneir backs were always free to receive it.
For Miami, Ashman and Hauser »tarred on defense. Kod played his usual hangup game and it was very few gains that were made around his end. Hauser when moved to center in Kimbrough’s place, played his best game of the year. Hauser got started late this year but plenty can be expected of him before the year is out.

Many Christmas carols will be ung which have been given only a few times in this country. Some of these have been brought to America and translated by Edwin Bliss Reed, and harmonized by David Stanley Smith, both of the faculty of Yale University.
Mr. Gillette, who is connected with the Coral Gables Chamber of Commerce, has been doing this
now.
As I sat there counting measures until it was time for me to come in, I wondered if the majority of the people in the audience realized just what was back of all this melody and exquisite harmony. I wondered if they were aware of the work and sacrifice made by every member from the piceolo player down to the drummer, to put over a program of such calibre. Lessons, rehearsals, practice.

candidates for the boxing team last week and several answered the lirst call. Last year the boxing squad engaged in one meet with the University of Florida here in the patio court in which Florida was victorious.
Of last year's squad Peter White and Gail Metour are only ones to report. White is still out for football but will report as soon as possible. He was the only one to win his bout in the contest with Florida, last year.
Among the new men are Marks, 1 Willey, West, Pomeroy, Cleveland and Clayton. Cleveland came here from Culver Military Academy with a wonderful reputation as a boxer. He is living up to the advance information and the class respects his lightning like jabs and excellent footwork. He won the championship in the 118 pound class.

Arnold Volpe, director of the University Symphony Orchestra, said, “I was deeply impressed by the beautiful music and exqusite work of the chorus in grasping the spirit of the music so quickly. They sang, after their rehearsals, as though they had been rehearsing months. Miami is fortunate in having Mr. Gillette, who is such a wonderful chorus director. It is an inspiration to sit under his baton.”
Miss Bertha M. Foster, director of the Conservatory department of the University, remarked, “I think i I have never heard anything more delightful than these quaint old. carols. They are charming from every point of view: the naive words, the lovely music, and Mr. Gillette’s ability to make the singers do them justice. Many of the best singers in town are cooperating to present this unique Christmas feature. They will be very popular, I know, and I am glad we had this opportunity to give them.”
My reflections were interrupted by the cue from the director that it was time for me to play. The overture ended and the people (Continued on Page 4.)

The first annual banquet of the law school of the University of Miami, held at the Alcazar Hotel Tuesday proved quite a success, according to Nicholas Hodsdon, president of the law school.
The attendance by members of the Dade county bar manifested their interest in the University of Miami law school and proved a deciding factor in making the banquet an annual affair.
Speeches were delivered by Judge Armstead Brown of the Florida Supreme Court; Fred Botts president of the Dade County Bar Association; Dean R. A. Rasco of the law school and President B. F. Ashe. The speakers were m-iroduced by James M. Carson, who acted as toastmaster.
