LIGHT and Airy
The Luck Of the Horseshoe

The grocer had a horseshoe nailed
Above his gilded sign,
The teamster Ger his stable door
Displayed no less than nine;
The blacksmith fifty dung aloft
An old and rusty one,
The man that owned the new garage
AIack, alas, had none.
The grocers till was tapped by
thieves,
Who shot him in the back:
The teamster and the through express
Collided on the track.
The blacksmith drowned himself one
day,
And 10, it's mighty funny,
But that garagc-man's safe and sound
And making lots of money,
-Wayside Tales.

Candidate. Baseball Positions

AS the spring comes nearer the in
terest in baseball grows. The first
game is the Patriots Day game with
Bowdoin. but a practice game with
some local team will probably be
played before that date. Outdoor
practice will start as soon as the
condition Of the diamond permits.
The men have been working for the
past month at the batting cage in
Parker hall. The material gives
promise of a strong team this year.
Partridge "a, the varsity backstop.
will probably hold down that posi-
ton with the help of Lamprimkos '25
of Biddeford. AS for pitchers we
have the varsity hurler, Lee Spiller
'23, Ralph Price '25 of Dalton, Mass
Ralph Hamilton 30, of Pennington,
y. H., and William Fellows '25 of
Kingston, y. II. For the infield posi-
tons several strong men are avail
able, Clifford Jordan "a. last years
first sacker. Joseph Cogan "a of
Stoneham, Mass, who held down the
Keystone sack last year. Four men
are contending for the remaining two
positions, James Kennedy '23, third
baseman, and three freshmen, John
kenney of Portland, John BAKER of
Beverly, Mass. and Albert Dimlich Of
Andover, Mass. All these men are
excellent and the competition is keen
For the outfield there are several
possibilities: Chisholm '25, Spiller
%, Fellows '25, Kenney '25.
