The humiliation of having lost Them

The question seems to have been de
cided by the members' of the sophomore
I class of the University of rrnnslvn'nia.
i For today, on Franklin Field, the
sophomores will try to wipe out the
defeat of last year by successfully de
fending their trousers against the on
slaughts of the nmbitioiiH first-year men
in the "Pants Fight," which opens the
program of "University Week."
"University Week" is 'the cnrnivnl
period of the 10J 8-1010 season, and Is
devoted to undergraduate social and
competitive activity.
Lnsl year the freshmen boasted over
whelming strength in numbers, nnd at
the close of tho pants scrap not one
for a military offensive. It is whispered
about the campus on the west side of
the Sclmjlklll Hint Colli classes have
rented bungalows somewhere on the
New Jersey coast where they can detain
kidnapped members of the opposing
class. Several students of both
classes hnve been quietly "lifted," nnd
do not walk the flowered paths of the
hi -garden todayi and won't till the
scrap is over.
The sophomores have been cudgeling

piano. It is almost superhuman. '
Even after you have heard the
DUO-ART you can hardly believe it
is true.
The DUO-ART will actually play
as Harold Bauer plays. It will play
the very selection that Bauer plays.
It is as truly Bauer that you hear as
when you actually hear Bauer at a
concert. You do hear Bauer.
Words fail in description you
