...remaining four games in the elimination round of the Leiter Cup baseball series will be played as follows: today at 4 o'clock--Fathers vs. Mothers on the diamond behind the bleachers, and Sardines vs. Bush Leaguers on the football field diamond; tomorrow at 4 o'clock--Nine Muses vs. Squabs on the diamond behind the bleachers, and Hit Hards vs. Huskies on the football field diamond...
...University shooting team last Saturday at the traps on Soldiers Field by the score of 230 to 219. Yale's total of 230 establishes a new intercollegiate record, beating the former record of 226, made by the University team in the shoot with Princeton on April 3, by four birds.

The real trouble seems to be that the work is not carefully thought to or logically arranged, and that the product of an idle moment as allowed...
...four short stories scarcely merit individual notice. Two of them are fairly flat, and the most that need be said of the other two, "The Murderer," and "The Villa Blashka," is that they keep us from forgetting, by their gratuitous recourse to the unusual, that a Poe centenary has just come and gone
