I. T. had the alleys all to themselves, when the Columbia op- ponents failed to put in an ap- pearance, and led by Bob Davlin, | who scored a 538 total including a 204 game, the second highest marks of the night, took the first two games, then went easy on the pocketbooks of their missing foes in the third exhibition. In the other match, the en- gineers from Carnegie Tech were among those absent, and Bowdoin, neatly duplicated M. I. T.s per- formance, dropping the first game, and winning the other two. George Benson, of Bowdoin, was high man of the night, rolling a 224 game to build up a total of 582. Tonight's matches turn Knox loose against Yale at 7:30. Notre Dame opposes Oregon at 8:30, and Lehigh meets Boston at 9:30. Scoring in last Saturday even- ing’s matches: Carnegie Tech R. E. Robertson. 177 177 R. R.

The radio star plays golf and is an ardent bob-sled fan. But her main sports interest is in basketball. She has even gone so far as to buy the Original Celtics so she may enjoy[ her pet hobby to the fullest de-, gree. The Original Celtics were the, first professional basketball team to put the game on a big-time,! money-making basis. They were the last to be hit by the depression and, under the sponsorship of Miss Smith, this famous team is help- ing to make the play-for-pay game more attractive and secure for the athletes than it has been for years. Miss Smith argues that the court game, perhaps played by more persons than any other sport in the country, can be put in the same category as professional base- ball and football as far as the col- lege graduate is concerned. In sup- port of her contention, she hasf eliminated from her team some of the worst features of pro basket- ball in the past. She Pays Well While other performers work for fees ranging from $5 to $12 a game, the Celtics are guaranteed a handsome weekly salary. That sal- ary has been paid promptly despite the fact that he Celtics had only one game in the first seven weeks of the season. There could have been many more games—as many as five a week. But Ted Collins, Miss Smith’s manager, refused to cheapen the game by playing for niggardly | | Daily _.é[)orts Ca guarantees on the stages of movie houses or in ramshackle dance halls and fight clubs, the habitat of pro basketball, Another characteristic of pro- basketball which always has bred suspicion among the fans and has been eliminated is the “floating” player. It is not uncommon to see teammates on one night pair off as cpponents the following evening with the men playing for entirely different quintets. All the Celtics are signed to contracts which call for their exclusive services. Drew Ten Years Ago The Original Celtics were mis- sionaries in spreading the gospel of basketball throughout the coun- try. A decade ago they drew capac- ity houses in every State of the Union, frequently playing as many as eight games a week. From 1922 to 1928, when the Celtics were gen- erally recognized as the greatest team the game had produced, they played 130 games during an aver- age season and won about 120|ened the scoring in the fourteenth of them. Reorganized along the stream- lines of speed and youth, the Cel- tics have a member of the old team in playing-manager Pete Bar- ry, now in his 23rd season with the team. In point of actual serv- ice, Barry is the oldest active play- er in the professional game. e Rainbow Girls, DeMolays Have Juin_t Session Double Installation Satur- day Night—Dance Fol- lows Ceremonies Many members and friends of the Rainbow Girls and DeMolays were present at the Scottish Rite Temple on Saturday night to witness the impressive installation ceremonies of the two Orders.
