...mercenary hordes of Lampy, driven to doom by their officers, were mowed down by the CRIMSON crew and at the end of the contest the score board read: CRIMSON 5, Lampoon 4. All of the CRIMSON runs were earned; the Lampoon quota was merely lent to them for the afternoon by its generous opponents. From the moment when the Lampoon twirler pitched over the backstop for the first strike of the afternoon, the outcome was never in doubt.

...taken a welcome brace in these spring months of ours. The Lampoon of nowadays is thrice as sprightly as it was earlier in the college year when a decimated board or editors tackled an unwonted task. Its quips carry a superior kick and its rhymes show an improvement in content and metre. All of which naturally makes the spring number a whole lot more enjoyable than the autumn edition...
...novel letter from Lieutenant John Lavalle, Jr., '18, formerly president of the Lampoon, and now in training for the aviation service in England, was received recently by friends in Boston. Lavalle wrote the letter while in actual flight 5000 feet in the air, at the same time managing the controls with his left hand. The letter is also reprinted in the current number of the Atlantic Monthly...
