P. & F. Corbin Annual Outing
Has Many Features

P and F. Corbins office force held
it's field day at Momauguin Saturday.
The baseball game between the Cor
bin Stars made up Of married men,
and the Single Beauties was called
at 2:15 O'Clock. 1t was filled with
sensational features from the time
when the Stars charged into the field
for practice in football forma ton,
clad in uniforms suggestive Of both
Roman DICTIONARIES and Titania's
fairies, to the last call, three out
and the robbing of the umpire of fines
he had imposed on all of those who
had questioned his decisions and on
some who had not. AS baseball
umpire, j. r. Fletcher was first
class factory manager. For the first
two innings there were some contested
DECISIONS but when the players
learned Umpire Fletcher's system and
realized that a protest meant fine,
there was harmony never seen IN
a big league game. Captain Hausman
of the Stars alone had the courage to
express the opinion that a strike was
not a strike if the ball passed three
: feet above the batter's head; also, he
| was the only player who had pro-
! vided himself with worthless metal
! slugs to drop into the fine box in lieu
! of half-dollars. His team lost, the
! score standing 5 for the Stars and
| for Prior's Beauties. There were ten
| men in the Stars against nine Of the
Beauties not counting the umpire.
Miss Esther Wall won the shoe race
| through superior efficiency in donning
| her footgear. Miss Marie Schnaidt
won the 50-yard dash. Miss Mildred
| Schick and Miss Anna Ahern form ed
| the winning team in the three-legged
| race with five competing couples.
| Fred Hausman Won the fat mans
race, leaving w. V. Collins and G. Err
| nest Root we'll in the rear, although
| ii was felt that Mr.. Roots eXertions
! in running twice the specified length
! of the course deserved some reward.
! Howard Rawlings won the handicap
| race, With Howard B. Stotts a close
| second.
| There were eight entries in the pie
| eating contest. Miss Anna Koleski
| finished first, daintily and neatly.
Clifford Hellberg was ostensibly sec
ond, but lost his place through the
| fact that q part of his pie was found
| in the grass under his plate, and too
| great a share of the balance adorned
the outside of his countenance.
At the dinner, which ended the
