= present provided some form of en-
tertainment. John Mckay, co-auth
, or of the Boston University show
Zero" which made such hit at
the Boston Opera House, sang sew
eral of his own compositions, and
gave an impersonation of Bert Will
liams Jack Glynn rendered few
; of his favorite recitations, including
THE Runt" There were a number
of piano and banjo selections, and,
to conclude the afternoon, "Auntie'
Parker, always a favorite with the
boys, served some of her own home
made molasses candy.-Mulkern.
Joe French, the Lowell MUS
ance,' lost seven pounds the first
week of the summer school. This
was due to the fact that his room
mate, Bill McGinnis, almost mayor
of Lawrence, was delayed. Joe al
most Rugged Bill when he arrived,
he was so pleased. Despite their
constant criticisms Of each other, the
two boys are inseparable. 1t is Il
good example of the close friend
ships formed among the summer
school students.
Just previous to the recent State
| primaries, three of the students vol
unteered to act as publicity agents
for one of the candidates for nomi-
nation. The offer was accepted with
| joy, and a liberal supply of posters
was loaded into a car furnished by
the aspirant for political honors.
After a few days had elapsed, he was
hpr To Of hic
on one telephone pole, all UPSIDE
DOWN. Those boys were certainly
efficient workers.-Mitchel
After arguing several days as to
the merits of their respective ball
teams, Managers Lonergan of the
"Rezoobs" and Mckay of the "Hot
Sketches" decided to settle the con-
troversy for good and all, and as
result, the teams met in what many
of the students termed the 'classic"
of the baseball season last Saturday
at Wyman park. 1t looked as if the
"Rezoobs" would have to forfeit the
game to Manager McKay's team, for
they had but six players on the field
when the time drew near for the
| game to begin. Captain Lonergan,
| however. and his hard-hitting right
fielder, John Murray, arrived at the
field just in time to assume their po
sitions. For the first three innings
the game was close, each team hav
ing scored one run. 1t was not long,
however, before the Hot Sketches"
demonstrated their superiority over
their rivals, and before the finish of
the contest, eleven runs had been
piled up, against three runs which
the "Rezoobs" managed to push
across the rubber. Manager and
captain of the "Rezoobs," Towser
Lonergan, contends that his team
was far off from form that day, and
still maintains that he has the better
team.-Anderson.
Bridge Hill residents are hereby
warned to park their rubber over
shoes inside the front door, not on
the veranda. 1t is hoped that the
residents of this section will take
heed of this warning, for Driscoll
Mulkern, Tobin and Hart are on the
hunt for inner-tube patches for the
Santa Maria" vehicle which re-
sembles an automobile..-Fal
Manager Frank Horrigan of the
baseball team spent the weekend at
camp at Patterns pond, in order TO
forget Saturdays game. Frank had
busy day last Saturday, for he act
ed in the role of umpire in the Re
zoobs" and Hot Sketches" contest
in the morning, and put through a
weary afternoon on the bench watch
ing his charges go down to defeat
at the hands of the Old Town team
The morning game took great deal
of Franks well-known "pep" away
from him, for he was all over the
diamond rendering decisions.-An-
| derson.
Students of the summer school are
going to miss Jack "Well Known"
Glynn more than a little. when the
popular chief of the Malaria Malas
packs his trunk to go to Washing
ton next week. Jack has been big
figure in the DEVILS Den Sporting
club, and from present indications,
it is doubtful if there will ever be a
man of Jacks ability on the roll of
this well-known organization for n
long time to come. Joe French is
sure to mourn the loss of his fellow
scribe, for if there were ever two
heads that could concoct ideas and
witticisms, they were Joe's and
Jack s.-Anderson.
BASEBALL,
Boston University lost it's first
game of the season when the summeh
school nine went down to defeat be-
fore the Old Town Wooden Co. team
last Saturday at Wyman park, by the
score of to /.
Alexander, who was on the mound
for the visitors, pitched great game
of ball, the local team getting but
three hits off his delivery. Doheny
the B. U. twirler, was far off his
usual form, and was relieved by
Klain in the sixth inning. Failure
to hit was the reason why the sum
, mer school team was on the losing
end, for there were many times dur.
ing the game that B. U. men were
