Notes
from
the
Anvil
Chorus
"ANNlE LAURIE" AS 1T Would BE
WRITTEN THIS MORNING.

are you on? --..
Her face is fair, she's a bear, she's a
bear.
She's a wolf, she's an otter,
She's a swell turkey-trotter;
She's some dancer, that's the answer.
Oh, oh. When l squeeze her, I please
her. o Caesar!
Oh, that Annie Laurie rag!
CHORUS.
Maxwelton hugs are bunny;
Amt it funny? Amt it funny?
Nab me. grab me, taxicab me;
Do that glorious,
GyratOrious,
Annie Laurie-ous rag!
Our sympathy for the kid fan whose
chances of gaining admission to the
park are limited to the nulnber of foul
balls that fly over the fence is UNI
limited. We are glad to see him find
a knothole or a seat on the fence. But
for the well-dressed, prosperous me
and women Who line the hill above the
park whenever a ball game is in SEES
sion we feel only deep disgust. We
nave never conducted an investigation,
but we imagine that a snapshot of the
crowd on the hill would be well worth
reproduction.
President f. G. Mulroney honored
the press box with his presence yes
terday. His visit was not only enjoy
able, but profitable, for we impressed
upon him the unhandiness of a desk
that has shut off our view of the
field ever since it was installed.
Yesterday. by the way, the new league
balls signed by the president arrived.
They carry a Goldsmith trademark.
Null was as tickled as a %youngster
when he saw his name on the cover.
Blank says that the president has in
spected those balls every five minutes
since they arrived.
The university baseball team had
two worthy representatives in the
Yannigan lineup yesterday. Jimmy |
Higgins played at short all afternoon
without a bobble and pulled off some
mighty nice fielding stunts. He led
off for the Yannigans and cracked out
a pretty hit in his first trip to the !
plate. Denhert caught for a couple

Elmer and the Schlossberg boys
were in their glory yesterday. Elmer
deserted the regulars and camped be
side the Yannigans, but he must have
used reverse English on his stuff, for
the regulars romped home. The
Schlossberg boys are in a fearful

is a dandy. but the boys ant decide
which shall wear it. They have de-
cided to chip in for another suit. so
that both may work at once. Now,
another suit will only cost SO and we
are down IN the subscription list with
a dollar. The boys intend to get the
suit, but the fans really owe them
something, and now is a good time to
square the debt. The boys have worked
for Missoula for two years without
pay. The a n ought to be willing to
go in for that unie. Mail your on
tributions to The Muscular or leave
them with owen Kelley. We will see
that due credit is given. 1t might be
a good idea to frame up a presenta-
ton on opening day.
owen Kelley broke out of the Bulger
Walsh class yesterday. He got two
hits in three official times at bat, is
credited with three putouts and one
assist without a boot. His only trouble
was with his wind. He ran for Sec
ond on a caught fly once and. though
Roberts threw the ball past Carman
to the right-field fence, Tobin had it
on first base before OWney could make
his weary legs take him back.
Ralph Frary got a taste of his own
medicine yesterday. "Rasty' Wright
called a close ball a third strike on
Frary yesterday and then grinned at
his chief.
Speaking of highwaymen, have the
peanuts, popcorn and chewing gum
boys gone after YOU yet? They picked
the press box for a habitat of live ones |
yesterday and kept us buried in pea
nuts and ice cream cones. When the
season opens, a machine gun will be
placed at the head of the stairs that
lead to the root.
The ~Highlanders put the scorer in
a funny predicament in the eighth
frame after their sensational rally.
The inning had been so long that
everyone seemed to have forgotten how
many We're out. Two men went down
in succession n the regulars called
it an inning, despite the fact that
only two were out. Therefore, the
box score shows only % putouts cred
tied to the Yannigans.
The varsity, we understand, plans
to play the American Giants, a colored
ball team. 1t might interest the COL
to know hat Saturday the
coons beat the Portland league team.
6 to 5, and that yesterday they lost a
lO-inning game to the same club. 2
to /. The varsity is advised to fight
shy of those coons unless she wants
a good beating.
Start spring like mother used to, /
