...Casey '19, of Exeter, centre fielder; R. H. Bond '19, of 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...
...absence of H. S. Middendorf '16 is still greatly noticed in the first crew, but today almost all signs of the check had disappeared. The second crew likewise is making rapid improvements in keeping a decent form at a low stroke. In addition to Middendorf's illness, another bit of hard luck hit the University camp today when C. W. Greenough '19 was forced to go home for the rest of the season with tonsilitis. J. F. Linder '19, who also left a few days ago because of sickness, is not expected back, and these two absences cause somewhat...
...Yale camp nothing out of the ordinary happened today. Both university crews took short rows, while the freshmen went to the Navy Yard and back. The most exciting bit of news in the Eli quarters is the fact that the freshmen have moved out of their old abode and are now living in a boathouse. Otherwise Gales Ferry is dead, although it might be mentioned that Fitzpatrick maintains his seat on the first crew; and that Page has now returned to his place on the same crew...
...Allinson's "Life" is a whimsical bit of verse; how much more crisply a similar idea has been treated, he can easily discover by reading Rupert Brooke's "Heaven." "When the Dead Awaken," by Mr. Willcox, is commonplace. Mr. Leffingwell attempts a feat of compression in a "A Song of Resurrection," and leaves his reader in a somewhat confused state of mind. Mr. Sanger collects his impressions of "Iron Ore Mines," and expresses his views about "America's Mission" in something that appears to be akin to free verse. Both his impressions and his views are worth while; but they...
Among these contributions, "The Genesis of Beauty," by R. Cutler '16, easily takes first rank. The slight bit of narrative in this sketch is thrown against a background of splendid color, and the whole thing is done quickly and powerfully. The author might be suspected to have been recently diving into Russian novelists, but if this is the result of any such reading, it is to be highly commended. Perhaps equally successful is O. W. Larkin '18 in "Imagination in a Pawnshop," which with the skill and the tantalizing of Frank Stockton Smith leaves us in anything but a satisfied...
