...Isaac Goldberg an interesting and elaborate life of "The Man Mencken."

...held on the old state fair grounds, now Camp Randall, the throw down the level racetrack, on a day devoid of wind, in the presance of a large assemblage. If this record ever has been equaled by amateur or collegian, I never have heard of it. However, unlike young Osler, I never slaughtered a pig with a stone behind the ear, though in boyhood at Baraboo I let fly a potato at a bibulous shoe merchant just as he was turning into a saloon far down the alley, hands crossed behind back; and had he but shut the outer hand...
