The annual outing of the Greater New York
Music Publishers' and Dealers' Association is
over, but it has left a pleasant memory in the
minds of all those members of the trade who
were fortunate enough to be present at the fes-
tivities at the Massapequa Inn, Massapequa, L.
I., on Tuesday of last week. One thing can
be said of the local publishers, and that is that
they can enjoy themselves to the limit, and make
a real holiday out of an outing. It was the
best-attended outing that has yet been held by
the association, but that fact did not interfere
with everybody having a good time. Really
it added to the enjoyment of the occasion.

moments, some bonehead plays, and the usual
umpire baiting, which helped to make it a real
game. The two teams were captained respec-
tively by George II. Bliss and J. T. Roach, and
the latter's team had the slight advantage of a
manager in the person of Walter Eastman. The
"Blissiviki's" line-up consisted of Morris Pearl-
man, catcher; Arthur Mehlinger, pitcher; B. P.
Sibley, Arthur Conrow, George H. Bliss, Phil
Kornheiser, M. J. Wale, A. F. Olsen, A. J.
Stasny and Jerome Keit. The "Roachites" lined
up as follows: A. Cantor, pitcher: J. T, Roach,
catcher; Lawrence Ellert, Jos. Glassmacher, B.
N. Beck, Frank J. Flyiin. VVm. Phillips, C. A.

eighth inning, when Roach was disgusted at the
form shown by his players and exclaimed "Aw,
let's play quoits."
There were two prizes for the best quoit team,
which was open to all, the losers being elim-

In the evening an elaborate shore dinner was
served and there was appropriate music for
those desiring to dance. George Bliss also was
persuaded to play and sing his inimitable

"I'm Sorry I Made You Cry," while Meyer
Cohen rendered "That's What God Made
Mothers For."
The return trip was made about 9 o'clock, and
homeward bound it was voted that the day's
affair was the most successful the association
ever held. The entertainment committee came

Notes of the Day
Phil Kornheiser stated he had not played ball
for live years, but he handled third base so well
that he was accused of being under cover.
Joe Glassmacher arrived at the plate with
three men on and he was so anxious to "kill"
the ball that he struck out.
The most comical play of the afternoon was
when Mehlinger was caught between third and
home. While the entire opposing team made
an effort to catch him he slid back to third.
Joe Keit played the role of pinch hitter and
took a base on balls.
Mike Keane insisted on getting in the game,
made a hit and stayed on the bases until he was
brought in home with a run that did not count.
Phil Kornheiser seemed quite pleased when
the orchestra played a half dozen Feist num-
bers.
Chicken was served at dinner and on the dance
Moor. No married men's uames mentioned.
During the afternoon a trip was made to an
adjacent beach for those desiring to bathe, many
sans raiment.

out the afternoon, performing stunts.
