Howard has also come to the fore in the past few days after being kept out of the line-up for over a week on account of illness. He was the individual star of the 1927 infield and an effective hitter of the slugger type. His batting eye has developed slowly this spring, presumably because of his enforced vacation from practice, but his fielding has been of a high order. Coady has seemingly clinched the first base position. He did not play on his Freshman team last year on account of scholastic troubles, but he has already distanced his competitors...

Each year brings its quota of new "marches", "quicksteps", "variations", "gallops", "quadrilles", "polkas", "schottisches", and "mazurkas".

...Leaves. A vagrant project, of the type that annually prowls unheralded into a vacant theatre during the Lenten season of depression and low rentals, appeared under this curious cognomen. It told how women will do anything for clothes. Two in particular had only a paltry $40,000 income and longed to spend it all on evening wraps. They both got into difficulties, gave their husbands opportunity for angry exit.
