300 SENIORS AT THE PICNIC

Only the 300 Seniors, more or less, who survived the picnic at Nantasket Point yesterday, can realize what a golden haze the absentees missed. From the time the "King Philip" left the wharf until the last car deposited its cargo at the Square, there was one whirl of pleasure.

Soon after the gang-plank was lowered, the Seniors cut loose on clam and lobster bakes. Dim memories of sea-food will always haunt those who are left to tell the tale. Satiated at last, baseball; track sports, and looping the maze followed each other in alternate succession.

In a one-sided game, Memorial Hall table 30 decisively defeated table 46 by the score of 12 to 12. A free-for-all fight in the baseball match between the thin men and the fat men was the feature of the afternoon. The outcome was still undecided when the "King Philip" was scheduled to start on its way home.

Unfortunately the balloon ascension did not happen as scheduled in the CRIMSON, not enough air being provided to counteract the attraction of gravity.

A vaudeville band-concert entertained the less active, with popular songs and novel dances performed by home talent. Then the Holworthy, more aptly termed the All-Worthy, glee club sang most effectively.

The track events were all run in record time, but the records will not stand as the correct list of winners was unfortunately lost. While these events were in progress, the merry-go-round, scenic railway, and other field events called forth both thirst and applause.

It would be impossible to state in detail the numerous incidents that made the day eventful and enjoyable. Not until the rain and the darkness turned the thoughts of the studious homeward did the sea-worthy crew of the "King Philip" up anchor and away.
