Page is known as one of the best basketball authorities in the western athletic conference of uni versities. "When Gerdes was elected captain he received the unanimous vote of all the freshmen numeral winners. He is now out for freshmen baseball and will probably be selected by Coach A. A. Stagg.

The vessel should have arrived here on St. Patrick's Day. Everything was going well, and Captain Alec W. May felt sure that he would dock his ship with her valuable East Indian cargo in Philadelphia early on the morning lof March 17. When almost at the end of the voyage, St. Patrick ran into a storm.
