New Course in Analytical
Geometry Start;This year sees a new course in
Analytical geometry added to the
curricula of the Mathematics depart
ment. Prof. Smith is In charge of th
class which is the smallest in th
CO.lege. Jake Ward and Pete Doylo
are those enrolled In the course.
Professor Smith says that th;
small number in the class makes it
possible for much work to be kccomplished. .\ccordjng to both students he is entirely right. Analytical geometry proves the proposition
of the other geometric subjects by
the use ot Algebra.

.a.:uiaaLLo ou 'I'uesday evening, November 15,
'there were about fifteen men out
the first night. However, many more
are expected to come out after the
Thanksgiving vacation since the foothall men were given the privelege of
taking a week's rest if they wished.
T h i s week's practice will consist
mostly of the fundamentals of tho
game. Intense practice will begin al
the close of the Thanksgiving vpcation.
Judging from the material, things
look pretty bright for this season.
Among the list ot candidates arc
former T. C. players as Bohn, Willlams, Renninger, Bauman, Vonada,
and perhaps others. Then there arc
quite a number who have played on
high school teams: Coleman, Mack,
Karlson and Eliason from Renovo
High; McMullen and Bollinger from
Altoona and Johnstown respectively. From appearances there will be
a groat battle for positions, which
a'ter all is what makes for a good
hasketball team.

Chess IS Popular
Among Y. M. Members
The Y. M. C. A. niembers recently Invested in a set of chess-men
with the result that the game has
become quite popular as a means of
recreation.
Last year's champs are upholding
their reputation but a r e
being
pushed for this distinction hy some
who have learned the game only recently.
The games are closely contested
some being coached from the sidelines by a group of on-lookers at
times numbering eight or ten.

Coming—Musical Numbers
(Continued from Page 1)
January 27, 1928, Miss Suzanne
Keener will be present to delight UJ
with her rich, soprano voice. She is
a most versat.le lady. Miss Keener
not only has studied music practically all her life and made a great success of it, but she speaks German,
French, Spanish and Itaaan as well
as she does English.
After, quite a n elapse o f time,
W i l l i am Gostatson, the popular
blond, bass-barltoue of the Metropolitan Opera Company will appeai
here.
This will conclude one of the best
musical courses ever given in this
institution—one w o r t h attending
and well worth-hearing.
