...Johns and Lupe Lupien are going to have a lot to say about who walks off with the batting championship (Charles H. Blair Bat Competition), and chances are pretty good that one of them will keep the title in Cambridge. Lupien was the winner last year with a .475 mark in the 12 League games. At the present time, both Johns and Lupien are right up among the pace-setters with .429 and .381 respectively for the six tilts they have played in. STANDING OF THE TEAMS W L Pet.

Jack Hill's band was very solid backing and played good swing on its own numbers, Roy Eldridge and Albert Ammons stole the show with their fine jazz, Ella Fitzgerald really made a tremendous hit (she later said to me that she had more fun working the Smoker than anything she had done in a long while) by here very swell singing, and Hildegarde proved herself far more than just a good piano player and better singer by her showmanship...
