...made in the whole game, and many of the men seeming to be surprised into striking. Although we much admired the catcher's cool playing Wednesday, we doubt whether he has the requisite strength for the position; could not the catcher of the Beacons be induced to play? We also need at least one active man in the field who will cover a tolerable amount of ground and do well at the bat. Although the prospect for the future is much brighter than it was, we can safely say that unless the men in college who have ever played ball...
...some time longer. It has been an exceedingly costly piece of work, and we hope that any assessment which may possibly be made will be paid up promptly and cheerfully. Now that the work is complete, it will not need renewing for a series of years, and we may also congratulate ourselves on having the only cinder path this side of Mott Haven, New York.

...always as guarded in his conduct as a student whose opinion becomes public opinion should be? Does he remember that every act of his will be imitated by a score of his admirers? For instance, it is Gosling's private opinion that he ought not to drink, and also that he does not like the taste of liquor; but if he hears that Swellington has been "jolly drunk," he will straightway get miserably drunk and will brag about it for the rest of the year. Perhaps we can pity Swellington if he is fond of liquor; but we have only...
