There are about a dozen C.8.E.T, groups in the city, and each one will be doing their best to "bring home the bacon." Besides a splendid athletical program which has been arranged, to start at 3.30 in the afternoon, there will be an address by & well known worker in the field of the 'teen-age boy.

Fletcher, At the Regent In the feature at the Regen! which commenced last night, "The Fair Co-Ed," there is an indica- tion that the motion picture in- dustry is at last making an effort to get away from the massive and expensive productions which have held the stage for so long. Dur- ing the past year there has been much discussion among the pro. ducers as to whether the publi was not becoming surfeited with the rich fare which has been of- fered them for some time past, and there has been a feeling that a return to something less compli- rated and less spectacular would be welcome. "The Fair Co-Ed" is simplicity itself; there is no elaborate plot and no sumptuous scenery to di- vert one's attention from the mair theme of the story. The actior takes place at a University, an" centres around the doing of thr Co-Ed Basketball team, of whict Marion Bright, played by Marion Davies, becomres the star member This versatile little actress he: a part which suits her splendidly, though very different indeed to other characters she has enacted such as "Alice of Old Vincennes," and "Janice Meredith," to men- tion only a couple of them. In "The Fair Co-Ed," she is a very modern flapper, with all the lure and co. quetry that goes with it. Daring, wilful, but always lovable, even when she fails to understand the true college spirit which animates her fellow-students, she at last realizes what it means to "play the game," and helps her team to win the great annual contest with a rival college. t is a good picture, well acted, end with sufficient plot to tie to- gether the various incidents, and make a connected whole, It is well worth seeing. There is a good comedy, an ex- cellent News Reel, and with Jack Watson's orchestra furnishing the music, you have an evening's en- tertainment that is well up to the standard which manager Osler has set for his theatre.

Greater speed in carrying out their plays, better passing, and a trifle more accurate shooting, all contributed to Oshawa's vietory. The local quintette worked to per- "ection and hardly any individual playing stood out above that of the general team work, McMas- ter University, an older, but not heavier or taller team, presented an aggressive forward line, and reliable defence and also had some well formed plays at their disposal! but in most cases, O.C.L's smart five man defence game proved their undoing on the ' offensive while the local forwards showed themselves to be a little faster than the McMaster defence.

Belanger was wide with a left, but crashed Ernie to the canvas with a poisonous right to the jaw.
