county seat quite carefully SO that
no person ever located II except
during the annual tournament
games, and then only after arduous
search and expenditure OF time and
money and patience:
There is certainly bunch Of
remnants flying around this COM
munity. Barney Dreyfus should
hustale up here and get one for
the Pirates while tho getting is
obvious, as It were.
Every high school contingent is
exercising Its favorlte yell and to
the uninitiated 1t sounds like the
zoo at meal hour.
Every bar in town Is wide open;
but theer IRE no bars here SO that
Is not as interesting as It might
have been.
We are ona still hunt-for Harry
Adams Stansbury. No, No, Hcc-
tor, not hunting a still for tho Ia
nous Morgantown press hunt, but
hunting for Adam quietly. We
have listened at every dining room
door but have not heard him eating
celery yet. We expect to find him
before the end Of the tournament,

There are some very pretty girls
here, but We had the misfortune
to leave our calling cards at home,
That's the penalty for rushing off
to tournament unprepared. The
style book Is right, you have to be
careful about the word anticipated
and not confuse 1t with expected.
This situation is Just what We
might have expected.
In less than an hour this morn
