Have you ever thought of living under the rule of a dictator? Can you imagine what It would be like? Ignazio Silone in his "Bread and Wine" portrays the situation vividly and authentically. Not many people know what everyday life in modern Italy means to ordinary citizens. Silone, a true Italian, a brilliant observer, discipli ned thinker, and an accomplished writer, portrays day by day life as it is now lived. He portrays the peasants with accuracy, vigor, racy humor, and understanding. This is a novel of symbolism. Pietro Spina, the hero of the book, symbolizes liberty to which he devotes his entire life. He is constantly pursued by the police and has to disguise himself in priestly robes in order to escape. Despite his failing health he manages to return to his native villaso after a self exile abroad, f f q works cautiously to prevent any suspicion but the declaration of war on Ethiopia stirs him deeply and he is un_ able to restrain himself any longer. He seeks his former comrades and through them tries to stir up the peasants. One by one they are arrested until Spina has to flee for fear of capture. All the characters in the story are affected, directly or indirectly, by Spina. —(Stasia Zola NIGHT Long have the colorful rays of the dying Autumn ¦Sun carressed the cottony clouds on high— As a Grecian mother kissed her slumbering child To seal the God-stiU'd love for one more day.

We are told that In the 11 years Doc Cras per has tutored the Warrior basketball squa d his teams have avera ged 43.4 poi nts for 200 games. While we don 't know what his opp onents have averaged , we do know that they deserve a big hand If they have come anywhere near that figur e. The up-staters lost five men by graduation this year: Dubln and Morgan , co-captains , Bill Davis, Jimm y Reese and Danny Gre goria. But they claim they aren 't worr ying, so perhaps we better be. ("bette r be") colloquialism for the time being.) • • * Nothing definite from other oppon- ents, thou gh we do have a little news from Kutztown , where they report a loss by grad uation of two varsit y cagers , Russ Stoudt and Claude Heffner , and one sub , William Purnell . Stoudt , who will captain the baseball team this season , has als;o served as captain of the football team ('36'37). The diminutive all around sta r from Allento wn has won a total of 29 varsity letters in college, Allentown Prep, and the Wh itehall Twp. High School , Lehigh Count y. Anyone wearing a sweater award on the local campus wan t to match him? It Is the unfor tunate but true obser vation of this depa rtment that a certain mid- western coach' s idea of placing a net on the othe r side of pole vaulting standard s to eliminate the usual fall for the ¦vaulter and make things safer in general will have no pra ctical use at Bloomsbur g. The experimenter fro m a large midwestern u niversity believes that the J ar which accompanies a drop of thirteen or fourteen feet after the bar has been cleared is injurious to a vaulter 's nerves and physical condition , so he placed a net on the other side of the bar to catch the vaulter. The new device is also said to eliminate the fear of falling so often found among young candidates. But to localize the story a bit more —you can't come down farther than you went up, and to place the net so close to the pit would seem foolish. » » • Sports at Bloomsb urg are backed by the students , as evidenced at the tennis match with Susquehanna the other day. Men of North Hall draped them selves out of all available window spa ce and nonchantly viewed the match from that pinnacle. Waller Hall damsel s followed suit (from Waller Hall , of course ) and took advantage of the fire-tower windows and rooms that overlooked the courts. The third match on the No. 1 court was watched with interest by at least one inmate , but she contended that It was pur ely a case of love of the game.
