Farrell MacDon- ald, has signed a long term contract with William Fox, The veteran actor will play character roles im several new productions. Mr. MacDonald has brought to the scréen a new conception of the importance. of the comedy element in a big picture when entrusted to an intelligent actor. His role of "Corporal Casey," the champion track laying boss of the railroad builders in "The Iron Horse" is one of tHe finest oharacterizations ever seen on the screen. His work is a faithful interpretation of the ghar- acter of the original section bogs of the old Union Pacific who was one of the most golorful characters of American pioneer days.

While their fellow co-eds were de- feated by McGill in Kingston, the Queen's women's debating team even- ed the score by downiug the Varsity team in West Hall, University Col- lege, Toronto, on Saturday evening. Queen's supported the negative of the subject, "Resolved; that the trend of modern English and American litera- ture is anti-social," while here they argued for the affirmative. Miss Dora Sanders and Miss Helen O'Reilly de- bated for Toronto on the affirmative of the subject, while the Queen's co- eds were Miss Jean Simmons and Miss Kathleen Whitton. An explanation of the censor was offered by Miss O'Reilly, who said that he was a need growing out. of the - tendency toward revolutionary thinking encouraged by modern lt- erature, The present trend was disruptive, revolutionary, and un- healthy, she said. - Modern litera- ture might be clear, but it was not true, sald her teammate, Miss Sand- ers. "Modern literature in its de- based, decadent atmosphere is anti- social," she declared. Changes reflected in modern 'MMt- erature were due to economic condi- tions, said Miss Simmons. Modern literature was condemned by the un- reading public. Miss Whitton, con- cluding the argument, thought mod- ern literature most optimistic. "Despite the fact that the baby is erying, the bacon burning and the coffee boiling over, we are happy," she argued. "Modern ' writers tell the truth, and the truth can't be anti-social." There is now a three-cornered tie in the Women's Intercollegiate De- bating Union due to the faet that Queen's, McGill and Toronto all lost at home and won away. The score eards are to be sent in and the cham- plonship will be decided on points. it is a notable fact that the negative was victorious in each of the three contests, showing conclusively that the trend of modern literature is so- cial rather than anti-social, HAD STOLEN GOODS IN HIS POSSESSION Patrick Dee Was Sentenced by Magistrate Farrell on Monday, Found guilty on a charge of hav- ing dtolen goods 'in his possession, knowing the same to have been stol. en, Patrick Dee was, on Monday morning; sentenced by ' Magistrate Farrell ,to "not less than three months, and not more tham nine months, in the jail, As the result of w visit Detective the police court room looked more like a hardware store than a court of justice, There was a great array of tools--saws, hammers, axes, chisels--in fact almost everything a carpenter makes use of.

Montreal, Feb, 8. University of Toronto's senior Hockey team con- tinued on its triumphant march through the intercollegiate series by downing McGill, 8 to 1; Saturday night. The local team put up a splens did battle, but was no match for the speed and combination uncorked by the blue and white machineh Only at one time during the fray was McGill dangerous. At the start of the third session, with the count 2 to 1 against them, the red and kept play in Toronto territory for some time, and * Joe Sullivan was peppered with shots. Many scrambles ensued in front of the 'Varsity goal, but each time the visiting goalle managed to clear. At one time, an open net presented itself to MeGill, but the puck slowly rolled by the cage, grasing the outside of the post, 'When the McGill squad saw that their best efforts were going for naught, they evidently cracked and once again "Varsity took up the attack and added another goal to their total, Trotter going through alone for his second of the match. McGill's efforts were confined mostly, to individual play, any good opportunities being wadted by fafl-| hand, 'Varsity players passed the disc at almost every opportunity and only good work by Herb Murphy, in zonal, and the bagk checking of Jack Lynch, sub centre, kept the U. of T. players from gaining a large margin. ----------_ { HOOKEY RESULTS }!
