Stover. All indications point toward the showing of one of the biggest comedy productions of the year here at this time. Advance notices say that the play has many more laughs.' in it than did "Charley's Aunt," which all can testify had hundreds. The farcial production of "The Whole's Town's Talking" is built on conditions of real life, just as was "Charley's Aunt." The complications which arise from such are what make the comedy in the play. Members of the cast of "The Whole Town's Talking" have been holding daily rehearsals for the past two weeks, and it looks like the players will be in excellent condition for the Bhowing Friday night. The "The Green Room Players" have gone through one of the most successful year in their history. Much credit for this success is' due to the faithfulness of the members of casts of the plays, coupled with the talent and power of the director. There are several members of the casts of the Green Room Plays who will be leaving school this year after graduation; therefore it behooves all dramatic fans to witnes's these players in their last tew performances j *TTn-_~7r_7Avuenf now and ittS enu>T37" school.

What started to be a very interesting game proved to be a farce as the innings of the SenatorsrPirate game last week went by. Mullen and Gieger were the opposing pitchers, and for five innings both pitchers were in a deadlock. In the sixth Mullen blew up, helped by a good many errors. Tbe field was in too bad a shape to consider the errors as faults of the fielders. There was no long hitting except for a few extra base blows. Jordan made a fine catch in the third inning. Hill, second baseman for the Senators, was the only player in the Infield not to make an error. The catching of Wingfield was the feature of the game. Game by Innings.

CODRINGTON, Notary Public. (My commission expires In what, proved to be the b'est gtame of any so far played in the league, Tribble's fighting Tigers succeeded in. clawing their way to their second straignt victory Friday. Up to today Tatum's fast stepping Reds had won two games. When Red Silsby took the mound today litvWas his third consecutive game. Sils/by couldn't pull the iron man stuff. The game was not a .pitchers' battle; but\ the pitchers pitched fine ball. Silsby was touched, for; nine hits while Tribble was solved for, six. fThkre were no outstanding plays except for a won- derful throw by Mabry in deep left, nipping; Bernard at the plate. In the fifth inning McCampbel^ turned in a good .'play'- when he; went to his far left to nab Joyce's,bid for a hit. The hitting of Jennings, Jordan, and Tribble was the feature of the swat- smiths. , ) iScore by Innings. First Inning: Reds: Jennings doubled to center on th.e. first ball pitched. Johnson was easy, McCampbell to Stewart, Jennings going to third on the play. Tatum hit _. teasing, grounder to Bailey, and the latter threw wild to first, Jennings scoring on the throw. Layton ^walked'.} MeredHth walked. Tribble pulled himself! out of a hole fwhenftie got Barnard's grounder, and threw to Wingfield, forcing Tatum, Wingfield making a snap throw and retiring Bernardl at first. Gets into Action Interesting, Exhibitions Are Seen on Cummings Field Afternoons The* second^ week of Ihe school league has just come jto alhappy ending. Manager Tribble's fighting Tigers are in the front. The playing on a whole has improved very much, for instanco the hitting. Last week Silsby and Tribble were blazjing their Avay to all kinds of strike out records; but as the games went on they grew much less. The pitching still remains the same, except for the addition of a new pitcher i to the Senators. Layton is sill the' home run king with one mighty swat' to his credit. Tribble leads the fielders with the fine average of 1,000. He also tops the^pitchers with three victories and no defeats. The teams that are participating in the league thank the students, for the way they have so far backed l them up. There should be more out to see these games as. they really worth while. Next week the race should tighten up and then there a,re going to be some mighty fine baseball games out on Cummings field. Something should be said of the(i umpiring.. It has always been fair. At some times the players and fans thought that the decisions were raw, but it wasn't because the umps were favoring any one man or team, it was beca'use they w.ere calling them as they saw them. The players as, a whole realize this, and there is very little; kicking.
