A Chronicle of Cnr Games Abroad i OW behold there arose a great man in our school who was known as ' A Richard the Daft. VV herewith he was desirous of defeating a certain tribe called the Episcolopians and it came to pass that on a time Richard the Daft sent a challenge even into the camp of the Fpiscolopians even into their own camping grounds, which was called Alexandria the Dead. .And Richard let it be known that on a certain day he would meet the cohorts of the Episcolopians on their own grounds and would show them how to do it. So he called his cohorts unto him and went with them into the town that was called the Beautiful and thence into the town that was called the Dead and there he awaited the cohorts of the Episcolopians. D But behold the rain poured and all but a few who tarried that they might say Rubbers unto one another departed. Now Richard made speech unto the Episcolopians and called unto him the keeper of the guarantee and said: Hearken unto my speech' l would that thou payest up the costs as thou didst say. Pay up and give us even as thou didst promise. - - But he hearkened not neither did he pay. Now Richard the Daft was exceeding wroth and withdrew his remaining cohorts Now it came to pass on a certain day he went into another place which was called Westminster. Now the Carrollites had spoken unto themselves: Let us get the gang of Iohnnyites and lay them under the sod. And lo, it came to pass. And through the night they made merry, and when the dawn came, there was nothing left except some headaches and some broken hearts. Now, when Richard went unto the Chief of the Carrollites with his bill, he said unto them: Behold, thou art to the bad with me to the tune of many dollars, wherefore I ask. of thee, wilt thou pay even as was promised? And he wilted. And the Carrollite winked his eye and said: Verily it is so. l .90 C YE-'FHQFQKSL . . . And he was a man of might and carried a curly head under his hat. 7 C. 4 2 J 7 7 I ?

St. ohn s has a golf club-and a course too strange to relate. How did it all happen? A Well some time ago Annapolisboasted ofaGolfClub oflwhichseveral of our Profs were members-high muck-a-muclcs in fact and under their leadership the aforem mentioned club flourished. But like every other organization that aspires to a position greater than that which it is capable of 'retaining it collapsed, and itsdisorganization was the beginning of the St. johns Golf Club for those honored Profs. of whom I have spoken before having become such enthusiasts over the game immediately repaired to our' rear campus and at their own expense' had a course laid out. - School opened and several of our curious members like Bip for instance in their tour' of inspection espied these little hearts on posts and immediately appealed to the Profs. for information. Novi by Way of explanation our. Profs. are very good economists so in response to the query they very modestly hinted that it would be a good plan for the Athletic Association to introduce that branch of sport into the College adding with a sly wink that perhaps the Athletic Association could also refund to them Qthe Profs. the money that they had ex- btrange to say the plan met With the approval of the Executive Committee and the campus was soon ablaze with red jersevs to such an extent in fact that rules had to be passed forbidding baseball and tennis at all hours when the golfers chose to 'be upon the field. All this for the Golf Club! May she hve long and prosper!
