...Freshman baseball nine in their first game defeated the Cambridge Manual Training School on Saturday, April 18, by the score of 14 to 3. In spite of the strong wind, the team played fairly well, although the men were, as might be expected, weak in batting, Nichols acted as temporary captain...
...Whidden is very effective as Punjab, and J. C. Miller, as Sthu Pid, the rival for the possession of the kingdom, imitates excellently the Chinese dialect, although he fails to speak loud enough at times. I. T. Cutter, as the Rajah of Mandalay, does what is perhaps the most laughable work in the performance. The best handling of a part, however, is that of R.

If one especial fault...

From this point the 1904 and 1905 crews were clearly out of the race, although they managed to keep afloat for another half-mile, after which the Junior boat sank.

About three-eighths of a mile from the finish the Freshmen were obliged to cease...

Williams '03, as Touchstone, was noteworthy both for his acting and the delivery of his lines, in a part that was perhaps the most satisfactory in the play. J. P. Hoguet '04, as Quicksilver, handled intelligently a difficult part, although his acting was superior to his enunciation. The female roles were well done and the minor parts were without exception excellently taken. The tavern scene, in which R. S. Wallace '04 as the sea captain terrifies the tapster by smoking the newly-introduced Virginia tobacco, was especially amusing...
