Centre College Colonels
Trounce Cardinals, 41 to
The University of Louisville Car-dinals
lost to the Centre College Col-onels
last Saturday by 41 to 0 before
a homecoming crowd of some 4,000,
in a game featured by two things as
far as the Cardinals were concerned.
Centre put itself in scoring dis-tance
for the first time by intercept-ing
one of Drewry’s passes. Neme-cek,
Centre fullback, did that work
and he was downed on Louisville’s
40-yard line. On the next play,
Chester Shearer, Centre quarterback,
went off tackle -for eighteen yards.
On line plays, the Colonels advanced
the ball to the 1-yard line.
Then Tom King rushed his mighty
little man to the battlefront. Tibbals
went in at left guard, and Shearer,
thinking to rush Nemecek over or
through Tibbals slapped the ball to
the fullback as he drove past. But
on the first try, Nemecek found Penn
and Horkey, Centre’s right guard and
right tackle, obstructing his progress.
Tibbals had put them there.. Shearer
still thinking that Nemecek could
score over Tibbals called the same
play with the result that Nemecek
lost two yards. Shearer then used
football sense and sent Nemecek
through the right side of the Louis-ville
line and scored.
On the second kickoff, Bushog Mc-
Kinney took the ball on his 8-yard
line and cut straight up the center of
the field to his own 48-yard line be-fore
Centre brought him down.
After that matters were just one
***** thing after another and Louis-ville
suffered a 41 to 0 1 defeat.

Druien Returns
to Stage At
Playhouse
Paul Druien, after nearly four
years absence from the U. o£ L. Play-house,
comes back to play the hero
in Sheridan’s “School For Scandal”
to be presented at the Playhouse by
the Alumni Players Friday and Satur-day,
November 29 and 30.
Druien’s last appearance on the
Playhouse stage as Romeo in “Romeo
and Juliet” has found a distinct place
in the memory of everyone who saw
his performance. In the role of
Charles Surface in the “School For
Scandal,” he will be given every op-portunity
to prove his versatility.
The happy-go-lucky, devil-may-care
Charles Surface in the stilted, affect-ed
background is very little like the
love-sick Romeo in the passionate
Venetian atmosphere.
Since his graduation from the Col-lege
of Liberal Arts, Druien has be-come
a much traveled,man and has
seen as much of the United States
as would appeal to a very romantic
young man. His many and varied
experiences would fill a volume and
will doubtless be reflected in his per-formance.
Edmund Bottomley, who plays the
part of Joseph Surface, one of the
leading characters in “The School
for Scandal,” has anew partner in
crime. Virginia Jarvis Scudder is to
play the role of Lady Steerwell.
Jeanette McGuffin, Alberta Brussel-bach,
Elizabeth Wilson and Marie
Ruysenaars, has been added to the
cast this week.
Chemical Society
Schedules Dinner
Universtiy of Louisville sec-tion
of the American Chemical So-ciety
will hold its Thanksgiving meet-ing
Tuesday night at 6 o’clock in the
Alumni Rooms, Belknap Campus.
Dinner will be served by members of
the Home Economics Department.
J. C. Shacklette, accompanied by
Miss Sara Lewis, will entertain with
violin numbers, and Lieutenant R. R.
Bottoms, director of research and
leading helium expert in the country,
will deliver an address on “Helium—
Its Occurrence and Production Meth-ods.”
Reservations for the dinner may
be made by calling Virginia Lee
Smith, Magnolia 6746 between 9 and
12 o’clock, before November 16. The
society has invited the members of
the University of Louisville Alumni
Chemistry Club and of the Theta Chi
Delta Fraternity.
Cast For Othello
Almost Complete;
Goodin Plays Lead
Production Is Second Of
U. Of L. Players’
16th Season
SIXTY ARE TO APPEAR
With the exception of the super-numeraries,
the cast for Othello has
been completed. The entire cast will
number about sixty and there is still
plenty of room for those who wish
to figure in the “mob.”
The second production of the Play-ers’
sixteenth season brings together
the cream of talent in the organiza-tion.
It is distinctly a play for men
and there is great opportunity for
picturesque portrayal of adventurous
and finely drawn characters.
The story of Othello is almost too
well known to warrant a synopsis.
The Moor’s passionate jealousy and
the frenzy it arouses in him, lago’s
revengeful cunning and treachery to
his chief, Desdemona’s innocent love
and purity, Emilia’s intuition and de-votion
to her mistress, the ultimate
death and destruction that overtakes
all those vitally interested in the in-trigue
engineered by lago, these and
other angles of Shakespeare’s story
are known well.
Ed Goodin will appear in the title
role and his performance of Othello
will be substantially built upon a
background furnished by experience
in major roles of Paola and Fran-cesca,
Anchors, If Four Walls Told
and Romeo and Juliet.
Burt Blackwell, equaling Goodin’s
experience on the Playhouse boards,
comes fresh from a triumph as the
chief character of the farcical Billy
to play the deep-dyed villain, lago.
Norman Wright as Roderigo ap-pears
in an important role for the
first time since his success as Talia-ferro
in Expressing Willie.
ALUMNI BANQUET IS
SCHEDULED AT BROWN
ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT
Virginia Cowherd Taking
Reservations For
Affair
PUBLIC IS INVITED
Virginia Cowherd, newly appointed
secretary of the Alumni Association
of the University of Louisville, is ac-cepting
reservations for the Alumni
banquet to be given in honor of Presi-dent
Raymond A. Kent, at 6:20
o’clock Wednesday night in the Crys-tal
ballroom of the Brown Hotel, ac-cording
to Herbert F. Boehl, presi-dent
of the Alumni Association.
Mr. Boehl announced that the pub-lic
is invited to the banquet and that
reservations might be made with Miss
Cowherd or with Leonard Brecher,
chairman of the ticket sale.
The students of the University
who plan to attend the banquet may
obtain their tickets from Mrs. Ralph
E. Hill, Dr. P. A. Davies, or Miss
Cowherd.
President Frank L. McVey is to be
the principal speaker for the affair.
The banquet will be the first of a
series of meetings in connection with
the president’s installation.
Assembly In Charge
of Language Studes
The assembly this morning was to
have been in charge of Modern Lan-guages
Department. Songs in French
and German and an act spoken in
Spanish were on the schedule.
The assembly last Friday was turn-ed
over to the Freshman Survey and
the meeting next Friday also will be
taken up with the Survey. Dr. Ellis
Freeman of the Psychology Depart-ment
will analyze the mind of the
University Freshman.
Fledglings Are Beaten By
Kentucky Kittens, 38 to 0
The Ellis Johnson-Newman Board-man-
Ray Woolridge combination of
the University of Kentucky Freshmen
worked almost to perfection last Sat-urday
afternoon on Stoll Field, Lex-ington
and the University of Louis-ville
Freshmen lost to the Kittens by
38 to 0.
The U. of L. Frosh threatened only
once and that was not until near the
end of the game. Bill Gibson, right
end, snagged a pass and ran fifteen
yards before he was downed on the
Kitten’s 30-yard line.
Louisville’s aerial attack was brok-en
after Gibson caught the pass.
Foster, Kentucky halfback, intercept-ed
one of the Cardinal flips and that
ended the aerial work.
There was right much of a battle
between Newman Boardman and his
brother, Jerome Boardman of Louis-ville.
Newman scored two of the
Kentucky touchdowns, but Jerome
saved Louisville several times from
being scored upon by punting his
team out of danger.
Woolridge made the most spec-tacular
run of the game. In the first
quarter, he zig-zagged his way eighty-five
yards down the field for the sec-ond
touchdown.
