Monday evening Coach Hartley had his advanced guard of hoopers out shooting baskets, warming up, and going through various other exercises to bring out the kinks. Wednesday, those who have been playing football wore also out after a short rest to allow sore and bruised places suffered on the gridiron to completely heal. Abo, during thia evening Coach Hartley picked a squad of seventeen of his more promising proteges, ask ing the rest to retire until after the Christmas holidays so that he would be able to devote his entire time in molding a first line quintet. One of the things contemplated by Coquille High over the holidays ia a short barnstorming tour, either to Southern Oregon or the Willamette Valley, pteying a four or Ave game ichedule on successive nights. Such a trip would be « great help to the Red Devil baeketeers, as the competition would put them in excellent shape. The squad of seventeen is: Linus Seeley, Harry Helmkin, Tommy Os trander, Alvin Shaver, Jack McCue, Harold Williams, Max Morgan, Earl Morris, Craig Perrott, Gus Gailas, Bob Collier, Bob (Bailey, Keith Hol- verstott, Jack McCarthy, Bill Pook, Morris Stonecypher and Herman El lingson.

Thi latter war a work frack—solely and amply a work frock—for Eva would soon be on her way toward Bat tery park and the coffee stall where nightly she dispensed hot coffee and sandwiches to the “down and outs” of that neighborhood. ■va had rented the coffee stall and Its equipment for a month and thoroughly enjoyed a fragment of life she had not hitherto known. Not that she had always known a degree of affluence. Bva had worked long and hard for the poaseesion of the dainty flat and its comfortable furnishings which she now enjoyed. Bva wasn’t dispensing coffee because she loved being among the “down and outs," but simply because she must enlarge her scope for story writing. She wrote the type of stories that were gradually creeping Into movie fields, and to return brought back In creasingly large checks. There was one other down to Bat tery park, also enlarging his mental outlook but bls look was straying more toward the development of his roman tic capacity. Ho was, to fact, casting many a glance of deep Interest at the wide-eyed girl who seemed so thorough ly out of her element handing out coffee to the none too clean derelicts who Uned up at her stall. He fell to wondering, as ho con sumed endless cups of her coffee, just what kink of fate had put her where she was instead of fa an exquisitely furnished drawing room—a far more fitting background than the row of hot dogs, chipped cups, and steaming coffee urns. And the back of Eva’s mind was not lacking In speculation regarding the young man to the shabby knickers and outrageous neckties. She scoffed at the Idea that ho might bo down there for the same pur pose as herself—to study humanity to this stratum. “Those things only happen In the movies and the lesser typo of dime novel,” she told herself, but she con tinued none the lees her guarded study of him, telling herself firmly that she had chosen him as a typo. She would catalogue him merely as an unusually attractive type of “down and outer” who must, at one time of his career, have been possessed of great oppor tunities Bva knew, by the keen look to his eyes, that the hang-dog glance of the gutter Inhabitant would never besmirch his countenance. His language, on the other hand, was simply atrocious. Bva thought bo must have taken lessons In the expert butchering of the king's Eng lish. Bva camo very near hitting the mark In her surmise, for young W. Owen James had spent many troubled hours in an endeavor to master a dic tion that would put him on a speak ing level, ns it were, with that ele ment of human kind of which he was making a close study. His first play, produced on Broadway, bad brought forth scathing criticism for hie lack of characterization—the play Itself be ing otherwise of grant promise. Owen bad closed his jaws with a click and gone about showing the critics that they would not say the same thing twice about hie shortcomings His second play was nearing com pletion and before many days had passed James would cast off the physi cal and mental mire of the derelict and revert to his natural element— that of scholar and gentleman. Bva. for some unknown reason, al ways flung on a cloak of armor when James approached the stall with his confreres. Perhaps It was to guard herself since she was at a loss to know Just where to catalogue him to her gallery of derelicts She succeed ed In baffling him as well as heroelf. When rehearsals began for the now play, young James was forced away from the Battery by a need of his presence on Broadway. Bva, too, had lodged the coffee-stall again with its rightful bolder and repaired to her dainty apartment with a fine plot for the movies Her typewriter clicked Incessantly. Her heart, too, when it had time, thumped a dull tattoo, when the eyes of a cer tain “down-end-outer” Intruded into her fast-moving plot She couldn’t for get him, and wondered if she had be gun to loos her mind—pining for a bit of masculine driftwood from Bat tery park. Bva went naturally, to the first night of the new play by W. Owen James . The play received a rousing woi- coms The author was celled and stepped shyly out to thank hla audience In words that prompted Eva to sur mise that be had bathed' his vocabu lary to the limpid pools of the king's English so exquisite was his speech. Turning his eyes toward the front rows whore all the critics seemed to have gathered, W. Owen James’ speech suddenly bolted, picked itself up and continued. He had looked squarely tote the wide eyes of Bva, an Eva to her right ful environment of intellect and chif fons His next play was a collaboration with much that was romantic woven into its successful lines 7 os.
