8 The Campus Mirror hairy land In Chicago Mabel Murphy, ’37 On almost every folder from the World's Fair is a picture of the “Enchanted Island, the glorified playground where parents may leave their children.” This part of the World’s Fair has become almost indispens able, and is indeed a “glorified playground" —and glorified is the word, for it provides ample space for all the children to romp to their heart’s content, while their parents ramble through the rest of the exhibits. The Enchanted Isle is a grand splash of color covering five acres just south of the electrical building. Brightly colored buildings stand about at various points; and a long, narrow restaurant coils like a serpent at the base of a magic mountain. Huge elephants, spotted giraffes, and tall camels stand guard over the buildings. At night, the brilliantly illuminated clouds above vie in beauty with the sparkling lights which dot the buildings. Within the buildings, the puppet shows, children’s theaters and magic midgets draw thousands, as the trained animals and painted clowns hold the attention of the children for hours on end. Outside, the big gray balloon elephant, which takes up a basket of people in his trunk, is among the greatest attractions. Besides wanting to ride in the basket, chil dren love to watch him as he floats in the air above the fair. When the children get hungry and thirsty enough to stop their activities, there is a magic fount and a spotless restaurant to satisfy their wants. These do a rushing busi ness; for the small customers and their es corts soon languish in the torrid sun. However, even though they may get physi cally worn out, they seem never to tire of the amusements in this magic land-of-make- believe. Their parents do not either. I think that it is quite as attractive to older people as to children, for many a rheumatic old knee keeps step with a sturdy one, and mod ish high-heeled shoes accompany the diminu tive low ones. Buses and jinkrikshas filled with tired older people frequent this place. Such is the Enchanted Island—a little piece of fairy land transplanted in Chicago. It is not the easiest thing to amuse this “machine minded” generation, but it can be done, as the Enchanted Island has proved. A man may dive into debt, but he finds considerable trouble in crawling out. I he Conference Standing Alena Erby, ’33 It seems, at the end of each week, that the conference leaders are dwindling to a mere handfull. All the leaders have tied at least one or two games except Alabama State. Tuskegee has tied two, Morris Brown, live, and South Carolina State, one. The outcome of the Morris Brown and Alabama State games will have a decided effect on the conference standings. From the looks of things, this football season will be one without a team in the conference going with a clear slate. Below is seen the present standing: Team Carnes Won Lust Ala. State (i 3 0 S.

But at the last part of the second, their defense broke; Kelly, standing on Paine’s 32 yard line passed to “Josh” Archer for the first touchdown of the day. The extra point was missed and at the end of the first half Morehouse was leading 6 to 0. The Paine defense was all-to-pieces on the third quarter; about the middle of the quarter, Morehouse lecovered a fumble on Paine’s 29 yard line. From there Morehouse drove for another touchdown, with “Big” Jones Sweet, and MeCurrin carrying the ball. The final score was made from a driving from Paine’s 30 yard line.

So the game ended with Morehouse leading 18 to 0. Morris Brown Defeats Morehouse Morris Brown came through to make an early score, thus giving Morehouse the sec ond defeat of the year. The game started off with both teams having the “shakes”, and fumbling the ball very much, which led in directly to the touchdown which Morris Brown made. “Shag” Jones fumbled the ball on the kick-off and Morehouse recovered on Mor ris Brown’s 10 yard line. MeCurin fumbled the ball right back to the Wolverines. The next play the ball was kicked out by Mor ris Brown, and the Tiger safety man fum bled to Morris Brown on his own 33 yard line. From there, Morris Brown opened her big guns and drove the ball over for the first and only touchdown of the day. From this point to the end of the game it was a matter of “nip” and “tuck” on the part of both teams. The fighting Tigers held the superior Morris Brown team to a lone marker, which shows that with a bit more stability and co-ordination they will be heard from yet in this mad conference race. + f DR.
