A POOR-PLAYER, POOR-PLAYER, THAT STRUTS AND FRETS HIS HOUR upon the stage a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing, said Shakespeare. Mazzini called life "a mission," and his was that. "Life is real, life is earnest," said Longfellow, and Ben Franklin called it "a state of embryo." "A man is not completely born until 'lie has passed through death," "What shadows wc are, and what shadows we pursue," said Burke, when he lost his son. Goethe called life "the childhood of immortality," and Coleridge said: "Lire is but a thought." Opinions on life differ, even among moderns. Yesterday. Pauline Lodge, forty-five forty-five years old, working in Russia's New York headquarters, killed herself jumping fiom a window, and lei'c this note: "Bury me like a dog."

Recommend Leniency The jury recommended leniency, but one to 10 years' imprisonment at hard labor is the specified penalty pen-alty under the law. Darrow, fighting counsel for the defense, choked back his disappointment disap-pointment at tlie surprise verdict and announced: "I will not give up the fight until un-til it is won or the last resource exhausted. I cannot say how disappointed dis-appointed I am. I thought there would be an end to the bitterness of fortune that has been piled on these poor people." Darrow and his clients had confidently con-fidently looked for either acquittal or a "hung jury" and were stunned when the jurors came in, after 49 hours, with a verdict of guilty of manslaughter.

Here's why: Ford's prices, which more or less set the standard for their class, are based on reaching a certain production. produc-tion. If this figure is not reached and Ford operates at a loss,1 the price will have to rise. Prices of all raw and fin-shed fin-shed material entering into cars are bought at: the very bottom ; there is nowhere for them to go but up. As a matter of fact, five brands of car3 have advanced prices already over those announced an-nounced the first of the year.

In one of the most spectacu- lar track meets ever held in : the B. Y. U. stadium, Brig- ; ham Young university track tt arii upset the University of Utah by winning the dual meet in a close finish, 75 2-3 to G9 IS, Saturday afternoon. The meet was decided by the last - vent when Lyndon Dudley, anchor man on the Cougar mile relay team, broke the tape six yards In front of Fred Hartenstein of the Utah "IT" team. One Record Broken Coach G. Ott Romney of the "Y" team juggled his lineup at the last moment and with a strategic placement place-ment of his men, pulled out Unexpected Unex-pected points for the Blue and White team. A crowd of a little over a thousand cheered themselves them-selves hoarse as the "Y" mile relay team eked out the last five points for a victory. The Utes furnished the only record rec-ord of the day by running the ES0 yard relay race in the time of 3:23 j-iu to D.Uei tne main ot 3:30 6-ll made by a B. Y. U. team in 19?& Bennion, Greenwell, Bennett and Goldstein, the record-setting cbh binatlon, were pushed all the way by the "Y" team of Toone. E. Jn-son, Jn-son, Rasmusen. The old record wa3 made by a team comprised of Corless, Roye, Rassmusen and L. Wright. ' ' - Harold Wright, University of Utah and Canadian sprinter,' was the high point man of the meet, with two first places won in "the 100-yard and the 220-yard dashs, and anchor-man in the winning' 880-yard relay team. Close bemid him was Vernon Scott "Y" wejght man, who not only surprised eyty-one eyty-one by pulling out of an anki injury in-jury with a first in the hamner throw, but won a first place in, the shotput for a 10-point total. Millet Surprises r Another surprise for the Brjff-ham Brjff-ham Young team was the brftad jump first place taken by Floyd Millet. Millet- was given only , an outside chance to take a thlpd place in the broad jump, but pulled an. upset by jumping out past Rlch-in, Rlch-in, Utah, in the event. Coach Ott Romney surprised the dopesters by taking LaM&r Taylor Tay-lor out of the half-mile" run and placing him in the two-mile event. Here Taylor accounted for three points by coming In second to Theron Snyder, his teammate; In as pretty a race as has been seen in the state for some time. Taylor and Teay, Utah, matched strides nearly all the way around the eight laps, side by side, until Taylor pulled out in front in a 300-yard 300-yard sprint much the same as his finish in the mile, which he' won in the time of 4:27.3, in an easy finis over Grey Lusty, Utah. This time is close to the conference record rec-ord time made by Squires, Utah, in 1930, of 4:212, and is better thpn most times made in the mile event in the conference dual meets. Wright's victories in the 100-yard dash and the 220-yard dash events were outstanding, chiefly because he ran against the brilliant Hutchinson Hutch-inson of B. Y.
