By the Assoctated Press. CAMBRIDGE, and a Mass., May 16.—A ot call to the Harvard College police force took tke place vesterday of the traditional annual hase ball game between the editors of the Harvard Crimson. student daily and the editors of the Lampoon, un dergraduate humorous publication. Al- though the keg of beer which formes reposed at each hase has of necessity heen abandoned. the game, such as it is, has been continued, and each side always claims the victory This vear the Lampoon team arrived at Soldiers’ Field to find newsboys of- fering them coples of a Crimson “base * giving a complete account of the Crimson’s “victory” under the headline: “Low-minded Humorists Are Suppressed by Crimson Base Ball Team.” The jibe at the Lampoon’s recent differences with the police ‘over the | | suppressed issue of its Literary Digest burlesque number was followed by this opening paragraph “Uncorking a brand of strategy that made defeat impossible, the gentlemen of the Crimson put the minions of the Lampoon to rout this afternoon in the annual base ball game. From start to finish the low-minded punsters were suppressed far more efficiently than by police and post office, and finally re- tired in shame at the short end of the customary 23-to-2 score.” The Lampoon men started en masse for the Crimson building. While one group burned the offending Crimsons in the front yard and plastered the facade of the building with mud, an- other contingent sneaked up a fire escape, burst into the editorial sanc- tum and precipitated a fist fight. Desks and chairs were overturned, lights smashed and papers strewn everywhere before two yard policemen quelied the disturbance. —_—mm ITALY DODGES PARLEY.
