will he hopelessly outclassed. Syracuse is without n iloulit one of the
foremost ranking basketball teams
this season In the east, if not in the
whole country. Syracuse has dropped
only one game so far on its tough
schedule, anil that game to Notre
Dame by only four points. In the
number of its victims, Syracuse lists
such (earns as Army, Colgate, Princetou, all of which were conquered by
substantial margins,
Syracuse bases most of
their
strategy around llii'ir all star pivot
man, " llig E d " Sondennan. Sonderman has played excellent basketball all season, ami invariably places
among the high scorers of the game.
On the other hand, the Slate team
will be seriously handicapped by the
loss of Jerry Auiyot. It is feared
that Amyot will not be able to play
with the varsity for the rest of the
.season due to the condition of a linger fractured during the Niagara
game. Dick Margison will be in the
starting line-up, but will be hampered
by an injured ankle.
Alouzn Duinont, '37, is in charge
of arrangements for the transportation of twelve men via hits to Syracuse for the game.
Transportation will be furnished
only for those who wish to accompany
the team on the bus for $1.00. Tickets
for the game will be an extra charge.
Those men interested in going must
see Alonzo Duinont today. Only the

able to go on this bus.

QNEOFTHE NATION'S outstanding
V collections of the works of Robert
Browning has been made for Baylor Uni'
versity by Dr. A. J. Armstrong, who is
shown at the left in the photo above with
Dr. Sanki Ishakawa with afileof Japanese
books on Browning. The photo at the
right shows Basil Rathbone and (Catherine
Cornell with the famed bronze replica
of the Brownings' clasped hands which is
now a part of the Baylor collection.
CTOOGING for Grade Allen, one of Ted Husing's
^ numerous radio chores, is at best confining business for the man whose tongue, and quick eye have
been ten years behind the mike. When given full
scope, as it is during the football 'season and in night
clubs, the tongue wins hordes of admirers sprinkled
liberally with enemies. For example, when Ted says
Minnesota's '35firsfstringersmight be bench warmers
at Princeton, or some such. Or when he throws a
forked retort off-duty at critics or anyone else who
brushes with the man who has been ten years behind
the mike.
No keener or more ac
curate eye has caught <t
football game. His words
come at the rate of 300 a
minute. Wherever a microphone can be taken, in
high places and low
throughout the nation, Ted
has taken it, donned his
glasses, and cast a lean
glance at the doings. News
events, sports, spectacles—
all have been quick fodder
for his uninterrupted and
glossy announcer's technique.
Six feet, 168 pounds, he has played both professional
baseball and football, and can be a greater physical
menace than one would think when he bristles
frequently. Ted was born in Deming, New Mexico,
but he is a graduate of Stuyvesant high school and
Columbia University in New York. In nigh school he
was a slim but alert center on the eleven, and earned
an all-city rating.
He was a furniture salesman temporarily out of
words that really sell when he decided to try out as a
radio announcer. He went into an audition in New
York, decided he wanted the job, but there were
exactly 608 other applicants,
Ted, of course was chosen. The Camel Caravan
has brought him to the mike on Tuesday and Thursday
nights for a long time. Lately he has had a radio spot
of his own—to tell of his ten yrars behind the mike.
College men during those ten years have learned what
he can do in letting them know just how their Alma
Maters are faring of a Saturday afternoon,

AFTER 150 YEARS beneath the waters of Lake Champlain where
•'*• British shot had sent her in the famed Revolutionary War battle of
Valcour Island, the warship Philadelphia was raised to the surface last
summer and now is to be given to the University of Vermont museum for
preservation. From one other three canon a bar-shot still protruded, proving she had gone down in the act of firing. Numerous relics, such as canon
balls, bayonets and axes, were found aboard the ship.
