16 OAK, LILY AND IVY. The football squad for the season of 1909, before disbanding, chose John Dalton, ’11, to succeed Ray Dunphy, ’10, as captain of next season’s team. At a recent meeting of the Athletic Association, William Moloney was elected assistant manager of the baseball team. He will succeed to the mana¬ gership next year. The season for hockey has passed along with very little chance for playing, owing to the poor condition of the ice. Ralph Newcomb and his players played two games; one with the Awpis club, Christmas morning, winning with a score of 2 to 1, the other with South Framingham High at South Framingham, losing by a score of 1 to o . The players have had little chance to develop their playing, but did well under the circumstances. Because we have had no quarters in which to practice and play basketball, nothing has been done by the Athletic Association in putting out a team. Thos. Quirk, ’10, manager of the baseball team for this year, has arranged a schedule of thirteen games, with many open dates to be filled within the next few weeks. We hope that the school will give its full support toward the forming of a successful team. THE SCHEDULE. Tuesday, April 16, Alumni, A. M. here. Saturday, u 23, Franklin, here. u u 30, Wayland, here.

iS OAK, LILY AND IVY. jfrom @ur JErcbattges. —We are glad to receive the “Hiigis,” as it contains several interesting stories. A few short, interesting stories make a paper much more pleasing than one or two long, prosy ones. —The Red and Blue has an exceptionally long Exchange column in its De¬ cember number. It is well written and by far the best item of tbe paper. The article on Berlin is profusely illustrated by photographs. —The Student: Your chief deficiency is in your lack of cuts. Otherwise your paper is most interesting. —The article, “How I Kept House One Day,” in the Enfield Echo,” is very humorous. —Few, if any, of our Exchanges present a better appearance than “The Red and Gray.” Anyone who enjoys a good joke should read “An Advertise ment.” —“The Orange and Black” needs some cuts to improve its appearance. The “Beatrice Fairfax” column is certainly a novel way of introducing personal hits. —“The Dean Megaphone” is distinctive from the other papers on account of its fine print. It has a remarkably long Alumni column. —The contents of “The High School Herald,” are worthy of its bright cover. The stories are good and appropriate to the Christmas season. —The Plagiarist column in the “Tufts Weekly ” certainly contains many witty quips. —We acknowledge with thanks “The Leavitt Angelus,” “TheKarux,” “The Mt. Hollis Outlook,” “The Hedding Graphic,” “The College Signal,” “The Somerset Idea,” “The Courier,” “The Greylock Echo,” “The Argus,” “The Gates Index,” “The Mt. St. Joseph Collegian,” “The Artisan.” THE OAK, LILY AND IVY 18 PRINTED AT THE MILFORD DAILY JOURNAL OFFICE WHERE THE BEST PRINTING AND BINDING IN THIS SECTION ARE DONE.
