...time that Coach young gave any definite line-up for his first team as it has been impossible to form an infield combination in the cage. Two teams played an informal five inning game, E. C.

...Rollo's Wild Oat" is a farcical comedy in Clare Kummer's most trivial manner. When we leave the theatre after the performance, we do not feel that we have come away with any lasting impressions.

Rolo revised!", holding indignation meetings on the street-corners...

...bonafide membership card in the Stone Mason and Setters' Union No. 84 of Greater New York, B. M. & P. I. J. (Whatever that means). If the movies appeal to him, he can make a great hit with the French public, who never tire of Wild West films, by donning his official Indian regalia and assuming the role of Watakpech Wakiya, the title the Sioux have bestowed on him. If he chooses to found a menagerie, his guinea-pig and wildcat will make a suitable beginning; but no doubt the jewelry business would prove still more profitable...
