This all happened on the bleak, cloudy Friday of April 24 in Raleigh—of course it was bleak and cloudy in Goldsboro too, although Goldsboro doesn’t have the Legislature. Then came the last home game for the locals. It was played on the local diamond (which really isn’t a diamond ’cause Rip ley said not) on Friday, May 1. the slag iron could be drawn off. As this was running off it threw out red hot pieces of iron that resembled stars. Men came with dump cars out of his wits as to what to do.

THE COMMERCIAL CLUB HAS PARTY Blue Side Entertains Whites The Commercial Club had a party Thursday night, April 22, in the park house. The party was the culmination of a contest which came to a close at the end of Wednesday, April 2, when the Blue side, whose captain was Sarah Lee Best, lost to the White side, whose captain was Leslie Farfour. The purpose of the contest was to encourage attendance at the weekly meetings and to get the club to pay dues regularly. The park house was beautiful ly decorated in green and white paper, while the mantle was covered in white Spirea. Caps were given to all attending. At tlie close of the party delicious lefieshments were served to all. l\/r jn • • McCrary is a courious compound.
