Dear school we leave thee now fore’er, Farewell, dear school, farewell. —C. E. F., '07.

»4 LA FORTH HIGH SCHOOL REVIEW. was the High Mogul e’er spanked like this when he was young? But then that’s treason, that I must not think. High Mogul:—Myself, alone, will I repeat the job for now am 1 convinced that you deserved it all. But busi- ness calls, come, prince, let’s go. Now about those wily Seniors—have they a right to live or no? (exit D’Mer and High Mogul.) Lucci:—Poor kid. 1 kind o’ sympathize with you— myself once when a boy was 1—but come, we’ll go. I’ll not disclose that which 1 almost said. Take my advice, my lit- tle lad. and act not quite so fresh until ye hold the upper hand. Remember this, as I tell you now, justice in a school is oft’ that which those in command, influenced by their own desires, are powerful enough to do. That’s a tip both good and straight from me—what, dear boy, you really have a match? I’d almost love you for that alone. Come. I'll tell you more as we proceed, (exit) Act III. Scene:—Home of Sir Boisterous. Enter Sir Boisterous, musing. Sir Boisterous:—This vain and worn out place, for- sooth. it suits me not. ’Tis but an empty shell—a husk held out in place of corn—how one will answer back in biting words when collared for misdeeds. One plans to bring an ocean of chagrin upon the teachers head. But, ah. in vain. For ’scaping Otwell: there is Luce to call me down, and then Deamer, then you have yet to deal with Mac. and so it goes down the line ’til soon one comes to grief—is captured and most completely tanned.—No more against the rules of school will I trespass—that is, if there’s danger of being caught. Besides, methinks I’ll not have energy to walk for some time, or having the energy. I’ve not the courage to brave the pain. (Curtain.) —J. R.

LA PORT E HIGH SCHOOL REVIEW. 16 JJHkZlKS SOUTH BEND 6, LA PORTE 4. On April 27th the La Porte High School base ball team was defeated by the South Bend 1 ligh School team at South I'end. by the close score of 6 to 4. The game was very ex- citing, as it was hard to tell who would be the winner until the last man was out in the ninth inning. La Porte was first at bat and made a good start, as usual. Frankenberger hit the air three times, but the South Bend third baseman muff- ed Brook’s easy grounder and threw a mile over the first baseman’s head when he did get it.

The first two men up for South Bend went out by infield plays, but the next man knocked a speedy grounder which Boh land played too long.
