There were two out in the last half of the third inning at Fitton Field, Worcester, Saturday afternoon when F. E. Nugent '30 fielded an easy grounder from the bat of Captain Frank Savage of Holy Cross and tossed the pellet 15 feet in the air over first base. And although no one noticed it then, the soaring horsehide carried the ball game with...
When Purple batsmen are projecting the notorious horsehide through the ozone and depositing it in the wide open spaces which are uninhabitated by hostile fielders, while the Purple mounds-man is catapulting the pellet by the opposing club-wielders, it is not difficult to recline on the seats with one eye on the field and the other on the further section of the grandstand and retain one's composure or peace of mind.

CRIMSON fury burst forth with all the tremendous energy of a roused Titan tearing in shreds the bond cast about him by the hands of a pigmy...
...opium in paregoric (baby-soother), in Dover's powder (cold remedy), and in many another household drug, drugs that seem kind. Opium gum looks like black paste. Addicts who smoke it use a small lamp, like a dentist's lamp, over which they give the dark pellet a slow roasting; then they put it in the tiny bowl of a long pipe. Their dreams are gentle. Opium does not waste tissues so quickly as does alcohol...
