WOMAN and
...S0CIETY...
At the Ball Game.

No, Clarice, dear, in baSeDall speech.
In stories like you scanned, ~,
No fan is'used by players. when =
They say a player famed,
Likewise there is no violence, -.
Except a weird, wild shout,
In cases where the pitcher throws
The man on third Base out 4
I. Also it is not larceny
(Though3 rooters grim of face,
Cry loud against the happening) 4.
For a man. to steal base
Ditto (and this curious)
When the rooters start to root
They root with mouth and tongue in
stead
OF roofing with the snoot.
