Mr. Dooleg on Basket Ball. ASKET Ball! Are ye spakin' about basket ball? Waal, talk of your excitin' games. Talk about golf and foot- ball. Wy, shure an' thir not in it. Giv' me a game of basket-ball, played by fair colleige damsels an' thet's all I ask fur. My, how I did mesjudge that thir game. But now I think sartain thir's no bitter thing far the constitootion than a good game of basket ball, fur it shure gives exercise enough, an' thin thir's somehow an excitin' ilement about it that rouses a feller's narves to jist the right pitch to make him feel good. When fust I saw thet game I thought it crueller'n a bull iight and then sech scrappin es thir was over that thir ball, en you'd hear some one yellin' cross like 'fStop yer tacklin, en' you'd hear a still mladder voice growl out Ididn't tackle. My, et was eXcitin'! Me narves scarce stood the sthrane. Waal, talk about yer funny stunts. QI larned thet word at collidgej Did you ivvar see some gals tryin' to play that 'ad nivver hild a ball before.' No? Shure an' I larfed till me sides near split. A game 'ud be progressin' finely, when all on a sud- den you'd see a igur with hair all streamin' down her back rushin' acrosst the field With th' ball tucked under her arm, lookin' es important as a Cornell man whin he's made a grand rush. An' thin, when that thir whistle was blowed an' she hed to give up th' ball,-waal, you shoued ha' seen her exprission. Et looked suthin' like bread that has riz too soon, an' has to fall agin.' But thim occurrences was only at fust. Shure, an' they em- proved ivery day, an' ivery day the spectators took more intherest in the game, an' I was allus thir, fust of all, choosin the bist place to see ivery thing. Did the young ladies show me any attention? Waal, I jist guess they did. Fur they allowed me to come to ivery game, even ef I was th' only man thir, an' afther the game was over, the winnin' side allus come and escorted me to the buildin'. They saw in me, be hivins, a man of ghreat ixperience, an' they are very brilliant them ladies, an' know a good thing when they see it. But them games, how excitin' they ware, sometimes I'd hole me breath, an' thin I'd fine myself jumpin' an' screamin' as hard as inny body. An' how funny they-ware sometimes. 97
