By J. G. Sarasin. §2. 331 pages. New York: George II. Dorau Company. With its setting in romantic Italy of the Napoleonic era, this novel has its plot spun around the thesis that the Corsican adventurer was just. The principals of the story are Caterina Leuthold and Captain de Saulx, a former royalist. With a pleasant seasoning of brigandage, the author has woven a creditable tale. It will especially appeal to those who like sure-lire, pistols-aud-erossed-swurds stories. W e have here very little intrigue of the courts, most of the action being in the mountainous regions. Captain de Saulx, with a price upon his head, is allowed by Napoleon to go bandit-bunting. Caterina, loving her captain, disguises herself as a youth and accompanies his troop of ruffians. Captured by the bandits, they escape in a series of swashbuckling adventures, only to meet Napoleon again. What happened then can best he left to the author to tell. It is enough to say that this is the book that Douglas Fairbanks might choose for one of his pictures; personally, we should like to see him act the Captain de Saulx. C. I. P. A., 1927 SECOND rrom i The Conquest of Our Western Empire. Dy Agnes C. Latit. 363 pages. New Y o r k : Robert M. Mcltride and Company. Miss Latit, who has won considerable attention with her popular epics of the winning of the West, hits written another stirring account of the carving of an empire. Miss Latit has the faculty of writing history so that even readers of Western Stories would read it avidly. By this we do not mean to say that our more literary readers would not be interested; in fact, they too will he thrilled with the historic incidents she narrates. Beginning with the cruise of the Lodestar of the Western Sea, Miss Laut unfolds in a graphic manner the development of the Pacific Northwest. What her Biased Trail of the Old Frontier did for the plains, her new volume does for the empire of salmon and tall timbers. Historic character that one meets in the book include John Jacob Astor, who founded the first American trading post in the region; Captain Grey, of Columbia River fame; John Vancouver, who plowed through the seven seas to win bis fortune. One also is glad to see the first pioneers of the region, Lewis and Clark, included. The text is well illustrated with photographs, It is here that one misses the pen sketches that added to the attractiveness of the Biased Trail of the Old frontier; though interesting, the photographs are only a .substitute. The book is written in an informal manner that is almost certain to please. It would not surprise the writer if the Pacific Coast Chamber of Commerce bought ottt the edition.

STATE COLLEGE NEWS, FEBRUARY U, 1928 WINS VICTORY STATE VARSITY FIVE STATE FROM PLATTSBURGH FACES PROYIDENGE 44-45 ON SATURDAY Following 3 Victories, State Will Play Rhode Island Team Here Tonight By ROY V. SUI.UVAN Having disposed of three weak teams in the last three weeks, the Purple and Gold five faces its third and last test of the season. Providence college, of Providence, K. I., is scheduled to take thc_floor tonight against the State College five in what will probably prove to be one < f the best played and most interesting games of the Albany court this season. Providence comes to Albany with a fairly good record, having disposed of some of the stronger eastern college teams. The Rhode Island outfit dropped an early season game to Dartmouth college five by a somewhat greater margin than the 43-23 defeat suffered by State at the hands of the Green team. This game was played on the Hanover court, however, giving Dartmouth an advantage. The Purple and Gold will lie strengthened by the return of Captain Kuczynski to the line-up. In the game last week Tony was cutting fast and playing better ball than he has played for a long time. Herney will be one of the guards and Griffin may start at the other guard post. Il is doubtful, however, that Griffin will play the whole game since his knee gives him (|in'te some trouble, Can- will play with Captain Kuzcynski up ahead and Guff will probably get the call at the pivot position. Two Albany area basketball players are listed in the lineup of the Providence college quintet for tonight. Hector Allen of Troy and Charles Murphy of Albany will he two of the forwards who will come to Albany tonight to oppose the Purple and Gold outfit. This is the first time in several seasons that two local players have been on one of Stale's opposing teams. Both Murphy and Allen have basketball records in the Albany area which they are expected to hold up tonight against Captain Kuczynski and Carr. Registering its third successive triumph on the h o m e court Saturday, the Purple and Gold quintet w a s victorious over P i t t s b u r g h State N o r m a l school, with a 44-25 score. State played its best ball in the first half and held a 28-10 a d v a n t a g e as the half ended. In the second half the Purple and Gold suffered a slump and outscorcd the visitors by but a single point. State scored sixteen points while P i t t s b u r g h " registered fifteen. Captain Kuczynski returned to the starting line-up for the first time in four weeks while Carr and GofT led the State attack. Captain Kuczynski, who has been out of the line-up because of an injured ankle, was not quite the T o n y of old, hut seemed to he getting back into form. Goff was high scorer for the home team, scoring eleven points on live fields and a foul. Carr, Stale forward, was right on his heels with ten points scored on four fields and two fouls. Carr opened the game like a house afire and was the whole show for the first few minutes, sinking three fields and a foul. Williams, Goff Star O'Ncil and Captain Williams starred for the N o r t h e r n e r s , Williams tieing Goff for high scoring honors, with eleven points scored on four fields and three fouls. Griffin, who is nursing a knee injured last v ;.( k, played a few minutes and lints l« pt intact his record of having appeared in every varsity basketball game since he has been in college, lie is now a senior, T h e I'laltsburgb game was Griffin's forty-seventh contest in the State College uniform. Herney played, handicapped by a black eye, which was injured in practice last week. Despite the black eye, Herney gave a good account of himself and was fighting hard all the time he was in the game. He has played in every varsity g a m e for two years. 'flic score: YEARLING FIVE MEETS KucSy'iiiki I.I Carpenter, HIT, if. . ERSK1NS5 T0MM0RR0W((loff, e. ., By ROY Y. SULLIVAN T h e freshman basketball quintet will get back into action tomorrow night, opposing the IZrskins on the College court. The frosh were beaten last week hut are confident of displaying belter team work and fight tomorrow night. The Erskins in their last game dropped a five point defeat to the Pharmacy college Reserves. Coaches Klein unci Herney will doubtless start Captain Lyons and l.udluin at forward, Lou at the pivot and Nichols ami Oil at guards. Hinuey is the reserve center. The game is scheduled to begin at 7:30. After the completion of the regular varsity basketball schedule on Saturday, March 3, a men's inter-class basketball tournament will be run off, according to plans announced today by Roy V. Sullivan, '2'J, and Horace Myers, '31, who are making arrangements for the tournament, The freshman and sophomore men will meet Tuesday afternoon, March 13, ami the seniors and juniors will meet Thnr.s day afternoon, March 15, The two winners and the two losers will oppose each other the night of Friday, March 16. "Men who have won their basketball letter will not be eligible to play in this series but other members of the varsil) squad may take part," Sullivan said today. FROSH ARE DEFEATED The freshman court five suffered the third defeat of tli.' season Friday night falling before the I'aramounts ..i Albany, Ki-M. 'I'lie frosh were off h a m and didn't play as well as tliej are capable of playing. The (rush trailed most ol the time except in tile first lew minute. when they had a one point margin.
