between the varsity nine of the Hoboken
College Of BARRIERS and their old rivals.
the team from the School Of Applied Chi
ropody. was won yesterday by the BARRIERS
by very close shave. As usual, the ball
game and the alumni dinner last night
were the principal features of the com
mencement day exercises.
Despite the weather the crowd at the
game was the largest and the most bril-
liant, socially ever seen at game between
the BARRIERS and Chiropody collegians.
All the undergraduates and many OF the
alumni from both universities were there
to yell for their teams, and the bright cos
tunes Of hundreds Of young women added
to the gay Kaleidoscope picture of the grand
stand. The young women from Massage
College were there in a body, and as usual
their cheers and sympathes were for the
Chirops. But honors were even. for all
four classes of Manicure Seminary were
there to yell for the BARRIERS.
The young women from Manicure sat
on the bleachers and all carried ox-eyed
daisies Most of them had red and white
striped parasos, the college colors of the
Barbcrs.
Before the gam began the sky cleared
and every spear and leaf Of the rain-kissed
foliage glistened in the sunlight like back
hair hand mirror
There was fast play and some sensat ional
hitting throughout the game but the or
ganized cheering Of the young men and
women Of the four colleges and the howls
Of the non-colle gate but enthusiastic out
siders were what made the game menora-
bic.
The girls from Manicure began it. When
the Barber players trotted into the field
in single file the young women rose in a
mass and, with the swaying canopy of red
and white parasols above their heads,
greeted the players with their college yell:
Powder, powder pink:
Powder. powder. pink,
D-o-n-t bite.
Trim. trim. trim

graduates responded with their yell:
