...offered even less resistance, succumbing by the wide margin of 17 to 1. The real proof of Andover's strength, however, lies in its victory over the Yale seconds. Shoop, the Andover pitcher, held his opponents to no hits until, in the last of the ninth, mitted Jenkins to smash out a home run, which brought the final score to 3 to 2.

...looks at Egbert, even when animal love is all that remains, she reminds herself that he is a sort of electric person. "He is," as Lawrence would put it, "so terrificially present to her" (my quotes). His characters bite and scratch; themselves and one another. They cling and they smash.

...Arena. The Unicorn players, supplemented this year by the addition of much excellent material from the former Harvard Club outfit, are expected to put up a scrap. Such stars as George Percy '18, A. F.
