On Saturdav afternoon next the Jevana Society of Queen's will hold its annual tea and sale in Grant Hall. "The co-pds have been busy for some time past preparing for this event, which promises to excel all past achiavements of the society. The victory of the Queen's Ladies Basketball team over the K.C.I. team, on Tuesday, by the score of 7 to 5, was marred by the injury s2stained by their captain, Miss Edna Henderson, who had her ankle sprain- ed in the contest. The Queen's team consisted of the Misses N. Merry, Elizabeth Chown, Gemmel, McQuay and E. Henderson. The Queen's hockey aspirants are rounding into shape under the able wmetruction of Physical Director Bews, who fputs the boys through an hour's vm. work everv Monday and Thurs day, from 4 to 5 p.m. of last season's team is hack in Blakesley, Box, McKinnon Wally Smith.

After areful investigation the judges devid- ed to adhere to their former decision nud now the debate commities has sustained this ruling. THE COLLEGIATE PRINCIPAL again, and does there a------ Makes a Statement About Institute Hockey. Kingston, Nov, 2i.--(To the Edit- or. )~-1 am told vaat there is ton- siderable misunderstanding, and a great deal of idle and malicious talk about the attitude of the Collegiate institute on the junior hockey Ques toon.. This communication is an at- tempt to remove snoh misunderstand. ing and to have nO excuse for such talk, It 13 Now uhiversally admittec that athletics may be made a valu able part of school fs, but, if such is to be the case, the athletic activi- ties of the boys must be directed and controlled by thé school authori: ties; encouraged when encourage ment is necessary, restrained if there appears to be danger of excess oi other abuse. Evidently such con- trol cannot be exercised over boy: who play with outside teams. Hbw, then, can the authorities of a school entertain proposals to amalgamate the school clubs with others? In fact, to make such a proposal ic evidence of failure -to. understand the place of athletics in sfucation. Personally, 1 always have used, and Always shall use, all my infly- ence to keep our boys loyal to the school, and the school teams; but auzhea who says that I have ever any threats or compulsion tc er end, is saying what is absolute- iy false, and what 1 believe h: knows to be false.--E.
