Silents Series
Continues at
Butterfield
The Butterfield Library is
pleased to present The Hunch-
back of Notre Dame as part of
its Silent Film Series featuring
live, original music by Cary
Brown on Saturday, October
3, at 7pm.
In this 1923 movie, Lon
Chaney stars as the infamous
“monster,” Quasimodo, with
Patsy Ruth Miller as Esmer-
alda. The film was directed
by Wallace Worsley and is
the best-known version of the
novel by Victor Hugo. The
film, called Universal’s “super
jewel” of 1923, grossed over
three million dollars, making
it the studio’s most successful
silent film. Chaney’s perfor-
mance and fantastic make-up
helped to make him a full-
fledged Hollywood star.
Musician Cary Brown will
create an improvised score for
the film. For more informa-
tion on the Library’s Silent
Film Series and other upcom-
ing events, please visit www.
butterfieldlibrary.org or call

Haldane Loses to Lincoln Hall in Final Seconds by B.J. O'Brien

Everything lined up per-

Devils to pick up their first
win of the season against the
Lincoln Hall United last Satur-
day. It was their homecoming,
the weather was perfect, and
there was a good turnout by
their fans.
The only thing that wasn't
perfect were the final seconds
of the fourth quarter. With
the Blue Devils ahead 14-
