...date, the team has collected less than 11 hits only twice, but in these two games, those against B. U. and C. U., the hitting was so infrequent that the team's average with the stick now stands at .222. In averaging about seven hits per game, the Crimson bat wielders have failed consistently to bunch their hits where they will do the most good.

The Cup is given to the best general player and the best general player, and the Bat to the best offensive player...
...with the new plan of inviting former stars, which is expected to add greatly to the spirit and enthusiasm of the initial meeting, the added innovations of slow motion pictures of baseball action, which will be presented by Leslie Mann, National League star, and the awarding of the Wendell Bat and the Win-gate Cup will make the annual event of unusual interest this year. Coach Mitchell who is taking over the reins as head coach this season following the resignation of E. W. Mahan '16, will open the assembly with a short talk on the plans for the season...
