THE REPORTER.

In fancy we can see you now,
With 0 and pencil, as o run
To learn just why and find out how
The fearful riot was begun;
In fancy, too, we picture you,
Elected by the millionaire,
But having gained the interview
For which you trailed him to his
And in imagination we
Behold you in your evening buds,
Let into high society
And mingling with the blushing
buds;
We hear the fat old men relate
Their ancient stories, stale and flat,
And then. in whispers. murmur:
wait!
Now please don't publish that!"
All, Vincent, have you ever thought
Of dangers that reporters face
'Tis not like sailing on a yacht
Serenely forth from place to place.
The insults of the proud and rich,
The high officials cold contempt,
These are among the things from
which
Reporters never are exempt.
The star reporter 0 not rise
BY easy bounds to eminence;
He must be patient, faithful, wise,
Alert, gorgeous and intense;
To him ever must be denied
nh ,1ooc,,,, NOV, oro In Vir{-
But, oh. the triumph and the pride
Of seeing ones own stuff in print.
Joe Schlossberg broke into league
ball Saturday.. After Tobin, who was
playing at shortstop, had kicked two
grounders Blank sem him to the
bench and put Joe in his place. The
bat boy didn't have n fielding
chances nor any opportunity to show
his worth with a Warclub, but he
stood with the h~ighlanders, attired in
an official unie. Il wasn't a bit
scared" he says. 81 didn't have time
to get ervous l wish Roberts had
hit the ball at me-"
All of which reminds us that the

Suppose hat the bull was charging

This week comes the wedding on
and with it a lot of misery for Man
ager Blankenship. No matter whom
ne picks for the cannery some of thu
fans will roar. One Of the character
istics Of the rabid fan is that h
knows more about running the teal
than nyone else. .
That a C betWeen Fred Carman o
the Highlanders and Jimmy Brow
of the varsity will probably come of
this week when Blanks men meet TIL
c%ollegians. 1t will be a ace wortl
watching, for both men are taste
than the ordinary Splinter.
