...Although the Cornell team has played fast ball at times, and is capable of displaying great ability, it has not had a very satisfactory season, and does not appear to compare favorably with last year's team. An unsuccessful Southern trip was followed by a slight brace, when three games were won in succession, but since then Cornell has been defeated by Penn State, 4 to 2; by Princeton, 5 to 4; and by Pennsylvania, 11 to 5. In the latter game the team went to pieces, making ten errors, but in the Princeton game a two-run lead...
...second time Miss Adams captured an enthusiastic audience in Sanders Theatre last night in her performance of "Twelfth Night." As might be expected, all the actors showed a greater assurance in reciting their lines, and were manifestly far more at their ease on the hitherto unfamiliar Elizabethan stage. Although the demonstration on the part of the audience was not so marked as on the preceding night, the performance brought round after round of applause, to which Miss Adams responded with a brief speech in front of the curtain...
...when hits meant runs was perhaps the most encouraging feature of the game, while the sacrifice hitting was far better than has been exhibited this season. McCall secured no less than three clever bunts and Currier two. The base-running was also about all that could be desired. Although only six hits were made, the team as a whole batted hard. Four errors were made by the University team, against Brown's two but they were not costly, as both or Brown's were...

Although there has been as yet not even a nominating committee appointed to propose names for election next fall, the Council is taken as a matter of course by at least one man who evidently believes in the usefulness of the Council and its ability to cope with all questions of undergraduate importance. This is by no means the first time that suggestions have been made with a view to having the student body give some concrete appreciation to high scholarship each year, but little has ever been accomplished in that direction...
...bird program was won by B.M. Higginson '10, with a score of 90; the cup for runner-up was won by C.L. Hauthaway '10, with 80 birds; and L.H. Cushman '08 was a close third with 79. As each man was allowed only two prizes, although Higginson and Hauthaway won more than two events each, the prizes were awarded as follows: longest straight score, Hauthaway, 14 birds; low score, R.M. Allen '11, 50; first 20-bird event, Higginson, scratch, 19; second event, C.F. Morse, Jr., '10, handicap 2, 20; third event, F. Stone '11, scratch, 19; fourth event, J.R. Gilman...
