...Gore Hall," "The Insignia Craze at Harvard," and "Why change your hatband every day?" The two last mentioned are especially appropriate as a protest against the growing love of wearing distinguishing insignia, a custom contrary to tradition except on Class Day. It would be absurd for us to allow this trend to lead to fraternity pins and grips which is its natural outcome. Some of the jokes are very good but are hardly equal to the longer prose pieces, especially "Lampy's Little Lampoonlets." Mr. Dooley, on the other hand, is hardly as good as he has been lately...
...game was wholly a pitchers' battle between Slater and Cooper, one hit only being made during the whole game. Slater did not allow a single man to reach first and struck out 15 men, while Cooper allowed but one hit and fanned 9 men. On the other hand, the Juniors were totally unable to locate Cooper, and had it not been for a couple of bases on balls, they would not have scored. The game was totally lacking in features, except the remarkable pitching on both sides...
Leonard's injury has not improved sufficiently to allow him to play today and Pritchett will be at third base. Captain Dexter did not report for practice yesterday as he was troubled with a slight attack of laryngitis, but he will be in the game today. If Hartford is in condition today he will pitch; otherwise Brennan will be used...
Harvard's team will be handicapped today by the loss of Leonard, whose strained tendon has not recovered sufficiently to allow him to play. Harvey will be in the game again and Dana will return to his regular position in right field. Cornell found Hartford a hard man to hit in the first game and he should hold them down again today. The batting order: HARVARD. CORNELL. McCall, 2b. s.s., Heilman Briggs, 1b. r.f., Ebeling Currier, c. 3b., Brown Dexter, l.f. l.f., Bigelow Simons, s.s. c., Hastings Harvey, c.f. c.f., Higgins Kemble, 3b. 1b., Watson Dana, r.f. 2b., Reiber Hartford...
...days ago, annexed several members to the University squad; but the CRIMSON, in no way daunted by this setback, will bring to the game today as noble an aggregation of ball-tossers as Harvard has ever produced. At the bat the wearers of the "C" are formidable, and never allow a pitched ball to go by them, being especially effective on high balls. The Lampoons have been batting a great deal lately, but they will be no match for the scientific curves of the CRIMSON'S twirler...
