Mr. Williamson caught for a Florence club in days gone by?and did a good job of it, too. One day in the early innings of a particularly hot fracas a ball caught him on the end of one of the fingers of his free hand.

Ambidextrous? And How! WAIL OF A COLLEGE BASEBALL PLAYER By "Ginger" Williamson I've a problem most giantic, And it's driven me quite frantic. It's one so darned pedantic I can hardly guess the score. If my leaning's dialetic And my studies diametric, My career will be quite hectic "With the gaining of such lore. Take a problem Matheniatic To the teacher of Gymnastic, And his actions are fantastic As he slams it on the floor. To my teacher of Theology I take a bit of Icthyology And he, without apology, Gently kicks me out the door. Now the prof that teaches Greek Cannot German read or speak, So what's the use to seek Any aid from there.

I must know more than my teachers As each one of these creatures, But a single subject features, While I'm supposed to know them all. I would like my studies Scholastic To depend on my standing Gymnastic? And make the ruling drastic? Then I'll have no wail at all. So, why not make a ruling, (And in this I am not fooling) That to continue with my schooling, I must play good ball. Carolina's track team this year will be built on a mole hill, according to the A.
