...witty, but on the platform he is dull, heavy, too careful of his facts, not sufficiently boisterous. "Do things, but don't boast about them" is his motto. So neither he nor his rich backers (primarily Procter, Ivory Soap man) could sell him to the politicians. It was deep disappointment. Theodore was dead. Was Leonard...
...open the first inning, when Barry singled with one man out, and Pierce drove him in with a hard double. The real scoring began in the Freshman half of the first session, however, when Miyakawa walked, was scarified to second and scored on Donahy's long drive to deep center which went for a three ply blow.

Here was a chance denied to stay-at-home ichthyologists by sea-dredgers of the omniscient...
Bells, Coins. In Rome on Holy Saturday 3,000 bells rocked and pealed over the thousands thronging to church. These heeded the bells, yet cocked their ears for the first deep boomings of the bell of the Roman Capitol. The elders had last heard it in 1870 when the Pope was deprived of temporal powers. The younglings knew of it as a tradition. No explanation of the resumption of its ringing was given out by Church or State...
