SP“ r t
SAM EVANS. JR.
THANKS. MR. SIBLEY
Frdiav night we were the very
joyful rt cipient of iwo fine cigars
from Mr. John Sibley of Auburn
Alabama. Mr. Sibley brought us these
cigars all the way from Lexington,
V, where he and his hrcther, Mr.
j j_ Sibley of this city, hid gone
u attend a re union of the classes
0 f 1880 and l881 of the Virginia
.Military Institute. Wow as much as
we enjoyed these cigars, we’ve got to
admit that the story of the “Mutin
eer" told to us by Mr. John Sibley
wa^ digested with much -mere case
than the stogies in spite of the fact
tsat these same stogies must have
[ir ,, n fifty centers. The story of the
• Mutineer. ” ns told to us goes some
thing like this: It seems that the
,'iarr »f '81 of which Mr. J. L. Sih-
It-y is a member was fast approach
ing that season of the year looked
up n by students the world over as
an unnecessary insult upon a grow
ing boy' • ability to receive and keep
knowledge; namely, examination
time. N’ov, at V. M. I. students were
given only one day in which to pre
pare for an examination, taking it i
for granted that the students had
ut : Iired their spare time during the
school year to review their work.
Mr. J. L. S bley and the other mem-'
hers of the class of ’81 decided that
one day wa.' not enough time in
which to prepare for a certain el
imination and petitioned for two days
the petition was denied; the class re
plied and left the school. The school
made it known that the mutineers j
were expelled; however after much
parleying the boys were allowed, or
rather resought, to return to school
and all dificulties were ironed out.
The class of ’81 went down in school
history as the “Mutineers”. Th«. :<
are twelve living today. Three were
at the re-union, and as Mr. John
Sibley told us, they talked and chat
ted until the wee small hours of the
morning of the grand old days of
the V. M. L rebellion.
Mr. Sibley has a great stock of
tales of his scheol days and this
war, cne of many related to us.

BENNY’S BIG BAT
No wonder the fans at the Mil-
ledge villa ball park clap their hands
with glee when Powerhouse Benny
Rothstein comes to the plate. Benny's
bat has saved the day for the Blues
on more than one occasion as was
demonstrated a week or so ago in
a game with the Americus Cardinals.
During the course of this game
Benny slapped out three home-runs
Benn's weakness seems to be the
right field fence. The pitchers in
this league are beginning to fear
Benny as big league pitchers fear
Babe Ruth. Some of them have al
ready walked him purposely in a
number of games, a fact in itself
which denotes fear. So, Mr. Roth
stein, talking to you, blast a few
more over your pet right field fence
and let’s see the number of four
base hits opposite your name rise
like a theromometer suddenly plung
ed into a glass of hot water.
