us the small village if We are to
use them as example, says The
Madison Lake Times. The little
fellows hearts craved drink and so
after imbibing in liquid fire they
proceeded to make jackasses OF

toned. They also got so familiar
as to think every mans toes was
parking place for their overgrown
battleships to rest on. They thought

few hours under the watchful eye
of Jim Ballinger in the cooler, they
were so much eased up as to get a
nice fine from Judge Reinsberg.
The Judge admonished them and
they left better and wiser bunch
of young men. Such a lesson oft is

score that was made on the last year
boys. The next inter-class baseball
game will be between the Freshies
and Sophomores. The second-yeaT
fellows will repeat what the Juniors
did over the Seniors. though the
Sophomore win find a stiff opponent
in the Juniors when they meet them
later in the season.
Captain Stump" Grant. able
leader of the Catholic High nine,
made himself known to the Goldey

Stump shot one across the meadows

He registered two home runs before
the game was over.
It's not so far off. only this Friday
week, that second big scholastic
game between Salesianum and Will

White exhibited better ball playing
against the unbeaten Chester than it
did the Catholic High The second
meet between the two foremost
scholastic High School teams has all
evidences of being a closer one than
the first.
The big fellows in the fourth year
will have to think hereafter before
they utter prophecies about winning
baseball games. The Juniors simply
walked off with them yesterday at
Pennsy Field.
The Salesianum track team will
make one more supreme try for
championship honors. The Eighth

through a general routine of hard
training almost every day. The meet
in which the local High School lads
will compete is the Catholic League

There seems to be in every team
that the Catholic High School turns
out that logged, unbeatable feeling
to fight until It has won. This par

out Monday afternoon. when Roman
