...weighing the pros. against the cons. as concerns beer at class "smokers," it is well to keep one point in mind: the amount of beer absorbed by the individual at a class smoker has so negligible an alcohol content that it is safe to say a man does not risk a constitutional breakdown as a result. Furthermore, an equal amount of so-called soft drinks, romping in all its effervescence through the channels of ones internal mechanism, has an effect more disastrous to the private welfare than that instigated by the four per cent. of alcohol in beer...

Gannett took second on the play, went to third on a passed ball, and scored on Frye's bunt...
...Rovers added three more runs in the third. Coolidge and Ayres were safe on errors, and after Frye had fanned, Gannett produced a drive that was good for four sacks. Marlboro tried to even things up, but two runs represented their best attempt. In the fourth, Fripp hit safely and stole second and third while Ashley was striking out. Waterman drew a pass, and with men on first and third, the double steal was worked to perfection, both men being safe. Waterman scored on Ayres' single. In the eighth, the Rovers directed a fussilade of hits against the opposing slabsman...
