DIZ LIKES DOUGHNUTS OF '40 SMOKE FOR FORTIFYING SELF

Jerome H. Dean may not have eaten an extra bowl of a special sort of cereal this morning, but the doughnuts and cheese of the Freshman Smoker must have agreed with the Great One. For the way he moved down the B. Bees yesterday afternoon was an indication that he was in the best of condition.

Furthermore the story which the better half of "Me and Paul" narrated at the Yardling annual was very much apropos. Had wily Scot McKechnie been able to call upon a black Frank Merriwell in the stands, he might well have used the slugger in place of Vincent DiMaggio's fourth appearance at the platter. For after disturbing the ozone on three previous third strikes, Vince was called out the last time.
