Mr.. Red Hogan,
New ! ork City,
Dear OLD Sorrel Top:
Listen:

listen:
Nine to MT, a coffin an goat,
A Rockachaw Rah to the Sly;
A lusty cheer from every throat,
Thus ended the hopes Of Boys FL.
Red, all | can say is you'd ofta been
here on last Satdy when the above
gentle lamb was sheaFed of his pin
feathers; an as you was here not,
then all | can say is you LOST a dern
big heap of what goes to make lie
real.
You know, or remember, old sox,
back in '21 them birds trimmed cur
lads in a game over in the crescent
burg. an made them Rockachaws
sore; well, our boys swore to get even
an they swore whole lotta other
things to the also-Howsomever it all
come out in the wash last Satdy an
the stain faded awav, also there
faded Perry Roehm's ambition Tor
clean slate for 1922.
But, Red, / wanta tell you OF the
MARVEL: Old Bay woke up! Yea,
Red, she did. You know, bo, these
summer-resort towns along the sad
sea waves have been havln' habit
of bein' as lively as a cootle on a. not
griddle all summer, but soon's winter
starts, when the folks migrate to the
big burgs, all these S-R's flop over
an 90 SOUNDA sleep till next spring
when everybody gets the squirt guns
to boomin' among the springs an
eject.
Well. Red, few of the suspicious
G mean the conspicuous gents OF the
town got together an decided to
walker up, an they did; Mayor WEBB
issued his manifesto calm holiday;
them Banks an Biz joints an, so on
snent bout steen SIS on Red an.
BLACK cotton-them's RockaehaWa..
colors-an' buncha pennants an
haos. & ETC.. an decorated to a fafe-
thee-well; them Jit drivers an otner
gas wagon owners did the same TO
the also. When everythln' was araped
Ep they forms a percesslon an peer,
AIDES thru the town with a brass pand
an a million kids yellln, IKE IN
dians.
Red. it looked like the whole town
had turned out, big an III folks was
yellin' nobody left at home except
the canary. b,,..
The peerade was headed By a puss
Of pretty James what woule mt the
Fofiies under cover for year. !,
We all got outta the grounds, an
them Rockachaws hooked the bush
an, nawed the earth, slammed them
Rav,s HI all over the lot, an the score
was to zero for the first spasm.
Then them rooters formed Snaken-
fine Peerade over the lot with Goat
in tbe lead-said eater of tin cans
helm of the Boys Hi variety-1ol,
lowed hv them pretty lanes all doiled
nm in the COLORS an bout million
an, eject of bows from the House U
Brains. :,
Them Rockachaws got 2 more IN
the last Il when big Prof: JauperC
slammed one of them HIS tor row
of ash cans back of they own goal
posts. a -
That ended the agony with to
NIT score. D1

With a bugle all done up in mournln ,
