PENN FIVE OUTPLAYS
DARTMOUTH QUINTET

Penn's work in the Dartmouth game at

teamwork of the men was good, at the
same time there was a lack of aggressive

] saw it," he said. cit went over there"
The CIddy hoped to find the ball or cor
vince his man that it was lost, and as he
and his player were kicking around IN the
grass there came n voice from the tee they
had Just left Hey" yelled the voice
which was that OF player following on,
"is This your BALI
Back to the tcc went tho player and
his caddy. and. sure enough. there was his
bail, all teed up as he had fixed a. lie
never had hit it when he swung but he
didn't know that. aud his caddy, not on the
job, took it for granted that the ban had
been driven.
That hoding hush which has fallen upon
the landscape is mcTcly the vanished uproar
from Sir Benjamin Eauff A year ago
