NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
THE “SAM SAM.” 
(Continued from Page 1, 2d col.) 
and when the first event was an- 
nounced in the afternoon there was a 
large concourse of friends present to 
enjoy the festivity. 
The feature was a ball game _be- 
tween the ‘“ Sheepskins,’ captained 
by Roland W. Boyden, and_ the 
‘“Horsehides,’”’ under the charge of 
Robert Robertson. The latter team 
won by a score of 17 to 10— an excel- 
lent score considering the fact that 
the wind was batted more than the 
ball. Other interesting events were 
called and enjoyed. Young ladies in 
nurse costume sold dainties to the 
crowd and were liberally patronized. 
The affair was a grand success, and it 
is estimated that the receipts will 
approximate two thousand dollars. 
Those who were so unfortunate as 
not to attend the affair have no idea 
what a “Sam Sam”’ really is, but 
after reading the following ‘‘recipe,”’ 
found in the book gotten up by the 
committee in charge, they will under- 
stand. 
“To make a ‘Sam Sam’: Take 
Peabody’s field, place in it 18 second- 
hand ball players (who ‘would be just 
as good as ever with only a little 
practice’) and one badly decayed 
umpire ; handle carefully and manipu- 
late gently until well mixed; this 
should take about 90 minutes, then 
add seven fat men (swift of foot and 
short of breath), ten strong men (tug 
of war type), six small boys in gunny 
sacks, sprinkle liberally with athletes 
or those who ‘only think they are; ’ 
mix all together, using great caution 
because of the sensitiveness of the 
material ; then surround with ‘cops,’ 
mayors, congressmen, peanut ped- 
dlers, lemonade ladlers, candy coaxers, 
bouquet button-holers, soft drink so- 
licitors, pop corn pushers, fakirs, 
African dodgers, lung testers, rifle 
shooters, ring tossers, solid citizens, 
pretty girls, nurses, sweethearts, 
mothers, fathers and wise guys, and 
there you are. And the hospital 
‘needs the money.’ You know the 
Teste 
That’s what was found on Peabody’s 
field Thursday afternoon. It was one 
of the most enjoyable things con- 
ducted in Beverly for a long time.
