...whole trouble lies in this mixing up residences with small business. As soon as they overlap, real estate prices invariably slump; keep them separate, and prices remain more nearly stable, This latter is exactly what the zone system aims to do. It will try not to put the small shopkeepers out of reach of reach of their patrons, a thing to be guarded against, but it will prevent them from spreading promiscuousy through the better districts. Certain groups of shops will be allowed even within some residential localities--mostly where small stores have congregated already--but these shops must stay...
Bunching hits was the team's forte in the win over New Hampshire State, 4-0. Russell allowed a mere two, safeties, and Emmons and Conlon were the fielding stars. The good work came to a sudden halt that very week, however, when a bad slump helped push Dartmouth on to a 9-2 victory. The first Holy Cross game was one of the tightest and most interesting of the season, and but for a temporary lapse in the fourth inning when Lincoln overthrew second and gave the Purple an opening for a successful squeeze play, the score might have...
Conlon starred in the 6-0 victory over M. A. C. on May 16, making three runs and directly preventing more than one run by the visitors. Goode allowed only four hits. Another decided slump appeared when Amherst unexpectedly blanked the University, 8-0. The latter's three hits were weak ones, and her six errors were disastrous...
...necessary then for the Blue players to come out of their slump if they expected to count among the college teams of 1921. They did come out, and rolled up ten consecutive wins before they were defeated last Saturday by the unexpectedly improved Princeton team. Cornell was the first to suffer from the Eli rejuvenation; and the next victim was Wesleyan, who was topped 10-6 in a struggle featured by hard hitting and loose defensive work on both sides. The following day the Waseda University nine was humbled 5-1 in a cleverly played contest, and then...
...proof of what the Maroon men can show when they so wish. The victory over Boston College was typical of the team's record in more than one way; the New York nine was ahead 11-0 at the first of the eighth, but the combination of a slump by the visiting team and a desperate rally by the Boston players brought the losers' score up to eight runs. In the University, Fordham will find another team that has the formidable rallying habit...
