Strange What a Difference
a Few Years Make

shining light Consider Joey
SeweIl, Riggs Stephenson and Luke
Sewell of the Cleveland Indians.
They have all been more or less in
the limelight.
And now comes Pennsylvania
university with a bid for honors-
Howard Berry, formerly a wonder
athlete of this institution, is soon
to be a member of the New York
Giants
And Bill Warwick, end on last
years Penn eleven, and catcher on
the baseball nine, has signed a con-
tract with the Pittsburgh Pirates
Small town rubes buy pink

Records.
Ethelda BIeTbtrey skaters the
women's long distance swimming
record, making the three miles and
a half in Sc minutes 81 seconds at
Brighton Beach
This cuts the former record time
by the wide margin of 90 minutes
33 seconds.
Ethelda, confidently, goes after
'em all. And gets most of 'em.
Won't be long until it'll be as tough
for an outsider to grab off a swim
ming title as it is for an A. L. team
to GUST the Athletics from the cellar.
S'nice.
OF all the big league towns, it
seems
New York is sitting neatest.
The chance to realize the dreams
OF pennant are the sweetest
For if the Yankees fail to cop,
The Giants may not drag,
And if the Giants fall, the Yanks
May cop the bloomin' rag.
When they start playing golf at
night, as talked of in the east, papa
can stay out all night instead of

Why doesn't the new golfer be
honest and explain to his wife that
he is going out to replace the
turf?'
