Hugh Weldon, of the Polys eleven, was

Doing the Big Series
But Seeing Very Little

BY n. C. ID.
Braves Field, Boston. Mass. Oct. T.
I'm writing this
In the press box
At Braves Field.
Because
Damon Runyon
Has Just told me
I'll have to have II ready
When the game is over.
And the number
OF my seat
Is 21s,
Which means
That it's just
21S feet straight-up
From where the catcher stands.
/ can't see anything
But the pasture
That runs back
From the diamond
To the railroad tracks,
And the river
Or Back Bay,
Or whatever 1t Is
And it's l O'Clock
As l write this line,
And a second later
As write this one.
And that makes four lines
About nothing.
But I've got to write something,
And I'm going to wait now
Till the game starts.
And I've waited.
And It's o'clock now.
And think
The game has started.
There comes a silence,
And a noisy engine
Puffs il away.
Outside the fence
And down below
l hear a rap,
And see a ball
Rise in the air
And fall again.
And then a roar,
And so / know
The first man up
Is out.
He hit a foul
And died
Just where he stood.
And ever since 1 wrote
Just where he stood
I've been sitting up here
On my porch
On the roof
OF the grandstand
Taking 1t for granted
That there's a catcher,
And a batter,
And it's 4:5O
At this minute,
And George McManus
Is sitting behind me
Drawing a picture
OF father
At a ball game.
And all the time
He keeps talking.
And he's 80 short
He can't even see
The outfleld,
And he's sore,
And everybody's going,
And the game must be over,
And I've got to turn this in,
And I'm going.
1 thank you.

forward with their right wing on
the Forges-Bo thincourt front, west
of the Meuse, planning to straight
en- their front before making
grand assault on the Goose Hill
and Dead Man Hill positions. At
the same time they made fruitless
