...final with Harvard at bat. A ball long-driven was met on the bound, and a wild, high throw to first was received in the air with a jump and a reach, just in time to put the runner out. The next victim fanned the air. A third went to the plate with a stately tread. It was a sky-rocket, not long but high. That little black sphere in the center of the big shining orb was coming down to mother earth, but it never struck because Orrin Day (second baseman) was in the way. The impact knocked...

...candidates, defeated earlier this season by the editors' team, will be given a chance to show their quality. Rhinelander will start the game as pill-propeller, and Bishop will gather up each curve as it is missed by the funny man who happens to be at bat...
