ObVersely to the Carr Smith linn
erick last lines, the Ray Joyce
bundle of endings was so much
improved that Skillet" actually
believes his little lecture of yes
terday on the subject Of Indifferent
limerick endings sunk deep into
the minds Of the fans.
Today a ladybug again crashes
the winners column, Mrs. John ".
Hay, being the fortunate patroness;
that is. if Mrs. Hay doesn't mind
being called a ladybug or q patron.
ess. AS most baseball fans are
called bugs" there should by all
means be some such term to desig-
nate the more vivacious Of species.
Let me see; the Ray Joyce jingle
started about CONNIE ce:
A right-handed pitcher is Joyce
His ball has a bit Of a voice.
1t comes past the plate,
The batter swings late,
Well, the most attractive ending
of the lot was:
For speed, he's . human Rolls
Royce"
And it remained for ladybug
to turn that clever line.
Mrs. Hay wins the four-ticket
prize and all she's got to do to
realize her fate is to drop in and
claim them. Skillet" hopes she
will do so at a very early date
and he hopes to secure from her
her promise that she'll be one OF
his gang in the squirrel pageanteC
at the ball park April Is and
bring three guests, men or women
with her for that "festivous" oc'
casion.
Next in order of merit OF thu
Ray Joyce ticket scramble was the
last line left at the office by Elmer
L. Compton, 1912 D street north
east. He added this passage to the
unfinished limerick:
watch Ruth lose some avOirdu
pois."
There were dozens of others end
ing with the word ''avoirdupois,
as there were others ending III
Rolls Royce" but the two winners
mentioned seemed to get a twis
into their phrases which appealed
to the judges-and that Is what
Skillet" In craving-really clever
arrangements, in addition to rhythm
and rhyme.
Third in today's allotment o.
winners is H. v. Brennan, 81:
Quintana Place, who won his two
tickets on the strength Of the fol
lowing:
Strike three. and you're out, >
said a voice.
1t is hard to ten how many hun
dreds of limerick last lines ended
the same way. The judges believe
the above is a good selection, how
ever.
Fourth on today's list Of success
full candidates for tickets comes the
name of another Virginian-a Clar
endon prodigy, by the waY-H. M
Pearson. Clarendon is one of the
liveliest baseball towns around Wash
