ANNUAL BANQUET
FOR THE SENIORS
Juniors are Hosts to Upper Class
and Faculty and Board Mem
bers-Baccalaureate Sunday
(By School Correspondent

Last Friday night the Juniors en-.
tertained the Seniors, faculty and the
members of the school board at the
annual class banquet. The gymnasium
was appropriately decorated with
flags and the color scheme thruout
both decorations and banquet were
red, white and blue. The five-course
banquet was prepared and served by
members of the domestic science de-
partment in the high school and the
eighth grade, under the direction of
Miss Morris. After the last course
had been served, Stanley Randolph,
as POSTMASTER, introduced each speak
er with his characteristic witty re-
marks and always had clever retort
when the speaker had finished. The
first one to respond to toast was
Norman Lynch, who welcomed the
Seniors as the Juniors guests. To
this Dora Williams responded on be-
half OF the Seniors. Perry Soth, in
his "Toasts on Hosts" entertained
everyone with his rapid-fire success
ion Of humorous stories about the
Juniors. The POSTMASTER had dared
him to give his opinion Of the Juniors
and Perry very frankly did so. In
the Gossip of the Gods" Marjorie
Taylor let out few Of the faculty
secrets when she compared the var
ious teachers with the gods on Mt.
Olympus. But Miss Pearl let out even
more secrets concerning the Seniors
when she told in very clever verse
what she had learned "Out Of the
Witch's Caldron" and even exposed
scenes Of their babyhood. However.
the Seniors recovered their dignity
when Miss Spenser in fitting words
OF appreciation regretted saying fare
wells to the class of which she was
sponsor for four years. Mr.. Moulton
in response to the toast, ~The jun
iors' Outlook" spoke of the respon-
sibilities which the high school boy
and girl Of today must prepare to
meet as compared with those Of the
boy and girl Of twenty-five years ago.
Mr.. Lewis closed the program. He
spoke Of "High School Life," in which
ne showed that the various activities
OF high school life are as much a part
OF ones education as the knowledge
gained from books and commented
with pride on the success of our high
school in all its undertakings.

SCHEDULE WILL HELP YANKS
Donovan's Team Will Not Be Away
From Polo Ground After Septen-
Der 12-ShouId Be at Top.

The 1917 schedule Of the American
league, differing in arrangement from
any schedule of previous years, fur
nishes many interesting features for
Bill Donoyan's Yankees. Accepting the
theory that team with large num-
Der of home games in the closing month
has an advantage over other clubs 1t
can be said that the Yankees have moth
ing to complain about. They will not
be away from the Polo grounds after
September II, writes William J. Slo-
cum in New York Evening Sun.
IF Donovan's team can stick with the
leaders until mid June or early July,
as 1t did year ago, there is no reason
why the Yankees should not be In the
fight right down to the end OF the sea-
son. 1t will not be so easy, however
for the club to get good start, as the
early weeks of the campaign furnish
an assignment for the Yanks that Is as
difficult as the closing weeks are easy.

WALSH WAS PECULIAR
Forced Out of Baseball by Ex.
ceSSive MaSSaging.
Big White Sox Hurler Was Called
Upon to Work Often and Never
Shirked, but He Did Insist
on Having Arm Rubbed.

81 see where Ed Walsh is not on the
White Sox reserve list. Excessive
massage put him out of baseball two
years ahead of the time he should
have been through"
Thus spoke a well-informed man who
has followed the destinies of the South
side ball club for many years. Walsh
was a peculiar hurler. He was called
upon to work often. He never shirked,
but he did insist on having his arm
rubbed. Every day the trainer had
to apply the soothing lotion and the
muscle kneading. Walsh insisted on
it. He was rubbed before the game
and after the game, and sometimes in
between. Massage was his hobby, and
he took it in the liberal Nprtions that a
man generally demands when the
things he wants cost nothing.
Fellow players demonstrated, but he
knew. Wasn't he the greatest pitcher

of his time? He was. Didn't he dust
the hostilities off the plate with great
regularity and more effect than the
others? He did.
So he had his arm rubbed morning.
noon and night, so to speak.
Rubbing" says King Brady of the
Cubs, ''is only artificial exercise. A
muscle becomes sore from overwork or
from a sprain. The trainer rubs the
sore spot to stimulate the circulation
of blood, which, of course, removes
the soreness. The same effect could
be obtained by proper exercise, but
one resorts to massage to correct the
one local fault. Exercise would put a
strain on other muscles which already
are in shape.
eff a player, such as pitcher, has
had his arm treated to excess he has
submitted to just that much more ar
tificial exercise, which in the long run
saps his strength.

YARN OF GEORGE STALLINGS
Baseball Career of Manager of Boston
Braves Nearly Ended by Clark
Griffith of Washington.

One Of the tanning bees incidental
to the recent big-league meetings in
New York developed a story about
how Manager Griffith nearly ended
George Stallings' baseball career in
Boston. According to the New York
Globe, the pilot of the Braves tells
it this way:
'"That fellow Clark Griffith came
within an ace Of costing me my job
in Boston. 1t was on the day that we
dedicated the new Braves field, two
years ago. Griffith was asked to come
over and attend the opening ceremo-
MES.
"There were $4,000 or more people
in the park. Someone. conceived the

the first ball across the plate, while
stood in the catcher's position to re-
ceive it.
81 fell for the idea. / went out in
my street clothes, with a catcher's
mitt on. Griffith strolled to the box
in uniform. expected him to lob one
over. To my establishment and con-
sternation, he cut loose with a fast
curve!
81 hadn't caught a ball in a dozen
years. If he had kept it bit lower.
never would have caught this one.
I just did reach it, and chung to 1t
for dear life. If I'd missed it, with
$4,000 fans looking on, I would have
been kidded out of Boston.
"It seems the whole thing was
plant. My players got Griffith to warm
up for five minutes under the grand
stand, just to throw that one ball and
make aesucker Of me-"
