Captain Driggs is expected to do the greater part of the work behind the bat this season. Although Driggs played at shortstop last spring, his natural position is catcher and judging from the past his performances this season should be of high order. Other men who have so far shown themselves to be of university calibre are: Scully at first base Madden and Weigand at second, Bauhaun at short, Howett and Bade at third, and Lee, Rankin, Hammond, Cory, Grey and Sidler for the outfield positions...
...Paulding describes an affair of the heart in very different vein. He, too, is subtle and sensitive, bat not a bit serious, and he makes us feel that his irresponsible hero is an actual human, attractive, normal Harvard undergraduate, a trivial person, no doubt, but far more appealing than the disembodied soul who suffers through the story by Mr. Wright. Mr. Paulding has not made an important contribution to American fiction, but he has written easily the best thing in the Monthly, which leads one to hope that he will keep on writing college stories with the same delicate...
...Everett, right fielder; N. H. Kerr '19, of Exeter, shortstop, and R. E. Gross '19, of St. George's left fielder, were the best batters on the team, Bond leading Casey by a narrow margin. Although a bit slow in his fielding, Bond redeemed himself at the bat. He connected for a two-base and a three-base hit in the Morris Heights game. Captain Casey covers a wide territory in the centre garden, is a dependable fielder, and a consistent hitter. He will make a valuable recruit for the 1917 University team...
With the Brown series even, and the Princeton series won, the team took a big slump on June 7, and lost to Boston College by a score of 3 to 1. Coach Mitchell's absence, Reed's two costly errors, and an almost complete loss of prowess at the bat were responsible, for the team played poorly, Reed's bungles figured prominently in each Boston College score, and although he was aided greatly by fast fielding, pitcher Gill let the University down with three hits. Rain cancelled the second Penn. game, but baseball followers were given a great treat...
...single by Bush in the fifth. Garfield also pitched good ball, allowing only four safeties. The lone tally came in the ninth, when Shea walked, advanced to second on Scully's single, stole third, and came home on a beautiful squeeze play, with Law at the bat. The score by innings: Innings, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 r. h. e. Yale, 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 Princeton...
