Both of these boys earned their places by virtue of some big stick work, and both of them can cover ground. Gordon's batting mark for the entire schedule was approximately a cool .560, tops for loop batters. Lyford of Lowell had a neat .552. The second twirler, Dick Story of Lowell, is no slouch and earns his place as a result of steady work in every game...

...treated rather roughly in his last two starts. The Ithacans shelled him off the mound three weeks ago but on that occasion he was attempting to twirl his second game in as many days. This time he will be fully rested. In addition, Slim Curtiss has turned in several neat performances and is ready to step in if needed; and Charley Brackett has received his baptism under fire. Curtiss won the Penn game last Friday and almost won his second game in as many days against the Crusaders Saturday. This improvement in Crimson twirling also makes the two-game Yale...

She lives with her moon-faced husband and their 16-year-old twin daughters in a neat, sagging one-room shack near Raleigh, N. C. They live on $4 or $5 a week, remember good times when they had $12. They own a 1924 Dodge but can't afford to run it. Years ago, discouraged by debts and annual babies, John started drinking "like a hog in a bucket of slops." But when Sarah drank cotton-root tea to bring on a nearly fatal miscarriage...

...almost completely disappeared in this respect; students regularly cheat and feel no qualms about so doing.
