V. eights notified |Coach Al Ulbrickson that he plan- [ned to leave for California in the very near future and will not re- port for training work. Backstead, rated as an. almost certain man for the '31 varsity, has not registered at the Univer- sity for the winter quarter. He re- ceived the offer of a fine business cpportunity from his home city in | California, and it was supported by a suggestion from his father that | he accept it. Therefore, the Husky athlete today notified Ulbrickson that he doesn't plan to sign the registration books and will prob- ably leave for the South next week. The loss of Beckstead will be keenly felt by the Washington |squad as he has a year of varsity and one of junior varsity experi- ence behind him and as port carsman will be in special demand this year. The failure of Beck- stead to join the Husky squad will mean the reduction of squad effi- ciency and the loss of manpower that Ulbrickson had hoped to avoid.

An hour they spent at a quiet roadhouse, served to rest them and soothe their nerves, as well as give Vivienne a chance to tell him just what had happened. Channing deftly switched the subject. He sketched his plam of Vivienne's going to -the studio, so that Aileen could w~isit with b without their being observed. . “Oh, it would have been ideal!— except for what has happened.

Now Channing reconfirmed it. | Neither of them wanted her. She was something beyond the pale— ower than an outcast! So that was their opinion. It lashed her like a whip. But Channing had goaded her too far. If this was their creed, she'd show them—if only to prove she was not the sort both of them despised. “Well?” she demanded and toss- ed her head “Since you've made Indiana university basketball team opposition more trouble ‘this year than they are the score-keepers who tabulate the game. ‘Around these two youngsters, whose names are the same except for the first letter, the Crimson has deyeloped a fighting, fast work- ing aggregation.
