AND SCIENCE REIGNED

Il was a protest meeting OF Irish
sympathizers. The president called
the meeting to order, and after an
eloquent ~harangue in which most OF
the important issues were skillfully
avoided, he asked If there were any
questions. A large, beefy individual
with a ~forbidding scowl. whom we
shall designate here as Mr.. Murphy,
arose to his feet and Numbered out:
what we'd like to know, Mr..
President, is what you did with the
money we gave you last year,"
At that moment a chair fell from
the balcony above the stalwart Mr..
Murphy, and considerably reduced
his interest in the proceedings. His
unconscious form was grasped cap
ably and carried from the hall.
Amid an eloquent silence the presi-
dent asked quietly
Are there any more questions !"

Squash Leaf Spot Is
Appearing In East

WASHINGTON. -tPE A s~erious
new leaf spot, resembling somewhat
the angular leaf spot Of cucumbers
has appeared on both winter and
summer squash in the east. II is
spread chiefly by rain and has been
observed to run like wildfire dur
ing a prolonged rainy spell.
Plant pathologists believe The
disease is carried over winter and
from place to place by the seed.
Spots seem to appear only on the
leaves, but may infect them so bad
ly, that the yield is greatly decreas-
ed.
Small and round at first, the spots
are conspicuous because of their
1rlght yellow halos. As they in
crease in size they Join and form
large brown areas, yellow margins
surrounding the whole of the dis
eased part.

COACH MOORE HUSTLINC
WESTERN TRACK SQUAD

an outfeld Job with the Holy Cross
base ball team.
Quality Of pitching talent Of the pub
lie high school base ball teams last
Spring which was nothing TO rave about,
promises to be little better the COM
ing season. Larry Schneider. Western
pitcher. who has been lost through
graduation, was just about the best
hurler developed among the group last
Spring. There were others who doubt
less possessed latent ability, but Schnei-
der was the only one TO come through
with appreciable consistency.
With Central and Business without
a single seasoned Moundsman on the
job and Tech, Eastern and Western
without the services Of their leading
finger of a season ago II appears that
the slabbing as whole Is apt to be not
so good during the 1928 series.
All the public high diamond squads,
with the possible exception Of Business,
we're expected to get outdoors today.
Business has had considerable dim
Guilty getting q diamond. The other
squads, however, all have done consid-
cradle work In the open.
