LITTLE BENNY'S NOTEBOOK
BY Lee Pape
CLOTHES.

Clothes are wat YOU haff 10 ware
To keep yourself warm and correctable.
It's ali rite to be born without any,
But the rest of the time they're more
respectable.
We ware more in sumrnir than wintir,
And We ware more awake than asleep,
And there's genrelly a CRATE deel OF diff
trents
Between the ones We give away and We
keep
Some things we ware are necessities,
Sutch as overcOats and sherts,
Vile others are ony luxerles
Sutch as powder on the noses OF flerts.
You can tell by wat persin wares
Jest wat he genrelly does,
Therefore if beggers wore full dress scots
They wood haf to waste too mutch time
Explaining wat they was.
Animals don't ware clothes at all,
Being satisfied with their hair,
And 50 wood people too, maybe,
If they had it everyware.

They both gave two bases on balls.
It looked like q shutout for Lowman

Two More Victories for
Emergency Fleet
Soldiers Of the 43rd Infantry
Were Easy But Napoleon
vile Made Them Fight
Over Entire Route

Two more games have been played
and the lost column of the Shipbuild-
ers remains unchanged and the H.
cures in the win column are increas-
ed by two.
The game Saturday with the 43rd
Infantry was more or less . farce.
The soldiers did not have a pitcher
and Charlie Lowman was loaned to
make it possible to stage game ara
not disappoint the crowd. This SET
to was q postponed contest from De-
coration Day and the proceeds went
to the Red Cross. After the locals
had scored four in the first, pep in
any member Of either team was very
conspicuous by its absence. While
there wasn't much ballplayinG done.
the players had a good time kidding
each other and the crowd seemed to
enjoy the comedy staged-so guess
there is no kick coming.
Hits by Rybiski, S. Blum, Vega and
two Dagger by Ross in the first
tailed four for the Shipbuilders. The
soldiers scored one in the same lining
on bunch Of errors followed by hit
by Jackson that scored Cook.
The local score again in the fourth
Vega, first up singled and after the
next two were out, Dyer and ]. Low
man both hit safe ones resulting in
TALES by Vega and Dyer. Both
teams scored two in the sixth. For
the locals, Tesserou and Dupuy deliv-
cred single each, but Dupuy was
forced out at second by Dyer. ].
Lowman followed with a single scor-
ing Tesserau, stole second and third
and tailed on passed ball. The
soldiers got theirs on hit by Woody,
aided and abetted by a mess Of er-
rors, Woody and Marshal scoring.
In the seventh, Ross fast ground
er was mussed up by Hall, the next
rou singled, Ross scoring. In the
two were out, but Vega and Tesse-
rau singled, Ross scoring. In the
soldiers half, Cook got on via q Ry-
biski error, Hall was out and singles
by Jackson and Marshal with q two
bassr in between by Woody, brought
Cook and Jackson to the scoring sta
ton. That ended the runmaking.
