The University of Louisville Card-inals
meet the Centre College Col-onels
Saturday afternoon at Parkway
Field in the University of Louisville’s
Homecoming Day game. The game
is to start at 2 o’clock (Central
Standard Time, according to
Louisville Gas and Electric Com-pany.)
Since the Cardinals defeated the
Eastern Kentucky Teachers’ College
Maroons last Saturday at Richmond,
they have taken renewed determina-tion
and for four days they have been
tearing into the imaginary Centre
Colonels with wim, wigor and wital-ity.
Tuesday afternoon, the Fledglings
threw everything they had against the
Cardinal line and were repulsed, and
how. And it wasn’t because the
Frosh did have it to send. They met
opposition.
Wednesday, the Cardinals drove
into the Frosh line and around the
ends and the Frosh knew that they

Alumni Players to
Open Season On
November 29, 30
Group To Give Sheridan’s
“School For Scandal;"
Matinee Billed
BOTTOMLEY IN LEAD
On Friday night, November 29, the
Alumni Players will inaugurate their
third season with the presentation at
the Playhouse of Sheridan’s “The
School For Scandal.” Matinee and
night performances will be given on
Saturday.
The story of “The School For Scan-dal”
is especially wel-known to stu-dents
of English literature and to the
theater-going public as it is one of
the three hits of the eighteenth cen-tury
which have survived in literature
and on the stage until the present
time. It can be classified as a com-edy
of manners and presents with
the aid of biting satire, a vivid pic-ture
of scandal-monging sentimental
society existing in England in the
year 1776. The play offers many
glittering opportunities to star, and
these respective roles will be capably
take care of by the members of the
Alumni Players to whom they are
allotted.
Edmund Bottomley plays the part
of the oil hypocrite and “man of sen-timent,”
Joseph Surface, who is con-triving
to ruin his brother’s chances
of becoming heir to their uncle’s
wealth. His partner in crime is Lady
Sneerwell, played by Anita Ham-mond,
whose love for Joseph, abetted
by her own malice against society,
links her to his machinations. These
two are aided in their nefarious con-spiracies
by their henchmen, Snake,
played by Alexander Thompson,
whose plots and counterplots furnish
a great deal of the motivation.
Paul Druien plays the part of
Charles Surface, the somewhat dis-solute
younger brother, whose frank,
geniaj disposition proves him one of
the few natural characters of the en-tire
satire, and whose uproarious
gaiety and boyish pranks win the sym-pathy
of the audience. His love for
Maria (Helen Earley) whose char-acter
is the the counterpart of his
own, furnishes the love interest of
the play.
Pure fun makes its appearance in
the cat and dog existence of Lady
Teazle (Ruth Wilson) and Sir Peter
Teazle (Dr. Louis Block). Lady
Teazle is a vivacious country girl
with social aspiration whose marriage
to her rich old husband was based
primarily on the entree into society
that he could give her. Her attempts
to adopt her sincere disposition to
the artificialities and affectations of
Lthe times and her husband’s disgust
and disapprobation as he views her

Patterson to See
Transy-Centre
Conflict
Dr. John L. Patterson, Chancellor
Emeritus of the University, who was
captain of one of the first teams
which played the first football game
in the South, will be one of those in
the stands at the Transylvania-Centre
game on Stoll Field next Saturday at
Lexington. Dr: Patterson was eap-tain
of the first Transy team. Transy
defeated Centre on April 9, 1880
Yand the teams this year will celebrate
the golden anniversary of fooball in
[the South. Stoll Field, at present,
is the University of Kentucky’s home
field, but U. of K. has granted the
use of the field, which in 1880 was
called Lexington City Park.
A well-educated Vienna man has
offered to sell the film rights to his
suicide, which he is planning for the
near future. He plans to blow him-self
up with a home-made infernal
machine.
Fledglings Meet
U. of K. Kittens
On Grid Saturday
Battle of Boardman Brothers
To Take Place On
Stoll Field
GIVES LINE ON TEAMS
Fans who want to get a line on the
material which will be coming up
next year for the Kentucky college
teams will be able to work out such
line after the University of Louisville
Freshmen-University of Kentucky
Freshmen game at Stoll Field Satur-v
day afternoon.
The only teams that the Fledglings
have met this year are Indiana ag-gregations,
but the Kittens have
played two Kentucky squads. The
Fledglings defeated Butler College
Freshmen by 20 to 13 and lost to the
Wabash Freshmen last Friday by 9
to 7. The Kittens have beaten the
Wesleyan Panther Cubs by 19 to 0
and the Georgetown Tiger Cubs by
39 to 0. The Tiger Cubs trimmed
the Center College Looies by 12 to 7.
Thus after the game Saturday after-noon,
a direct line may be obtained
on the comparative strength of the
Kentucky Kittens, the Panther Cubs,
the Tiger Cubs and the Lieutenants.
The game this afternoon will bring
out an interesting phase of football
battling. One of the Boardman boys
is playing fullback for the Kittens
and Clarence Boardman is playing
right half for Louisville. The
brothers played last year at Anchor-age
High School and the Anchorage
eleven was the sensation of Falls
Cities football.
Kentucky has this year, a boy
iwhom many have termed the best
high school football player graduated
by a Kentucky high school last year.
The boy is Ellis Johnson, Ashland
High School star last year. Along
with Johnson, the Kittens have Dar-rell
Darby, left end, another Ashland
star, George Bickel of Louisville
Male, and Ray Woolridge of Danville
High school football fame. It will be
an interesting battle when George
Mills, Max Kron, Clarence Boardman
and Carroll Grant and the other
Louisville backs start to matching
their ability at advancing the ball
with the Kittens Saturday afternoon.
Louisville will be minus the serv-ices
of Charles Hughes Saturday af-ternoon,
but James Reherman, will
be ready for the battle. Hughes, who
has been bothered with a chipped
bone in his foot all this season, came
out of the Wabash game scarcely
'able to walk. He will be out of the
game for the rest of the season.
Reherman, who was hurt in the But-ler
game, however, has been prac-ticing
this week.
