She wasn't any good the rest Of the
time. Seemed to have the wind clean
knocked out Of her. The way Colby
hated ana ran bases bcwlldercd her

didn't know whether to come in and
bat or go home.

wouldn't be noticed just then but 1t
landed Saunders at first. Ncwcnham
put out one OF the cleaneSt. sharpcSt

too bad.
Then didn't Colby pant the town. Hui
1y gee! but il was a regular Fourth of
July celebration on wheels. a nice lite
song was hastily composed for the occa =
sion and was intcrmngled with the yells
known to every alumnus. There was
fireworks, bontires. tranSparcncicS. music
and noise. II was a regular oG-faSl-
Toned celebration with all the fiXin's and
nothing forgotten. The Glowing is the
summary:
