Eighth inning. Nichols led off with a clean home run over centre fielder's head. LeMoyne made a base hit and went to third on a wild pitch. Allen hit safely, bringing LeMoyne home; Winslow went out on a foul bound to Thomas. Smith made a hit sending Allen to second, and both men took another base on a passed ball. Coolidge went out by McCarthy to Hale and Allen scored. Baker made a three-base hit, bringing in Smith, but was himself left on base, as Phillips flied out to Weeks. For Dartmouth, G. Nettleton made a base...
...recognized as governing the plan of instruction in almost every course under this subject. At Cambridge (and Cambridge and Harvard in this sense are practically one) has sprung up within the last few years a circle of historical students and writers, particularly in American History, not yet firmly enough bound together by common ideas, or united under a common leader to form a school, but united enough in general subjects and aim to exercise in the near future a decided influence.

Let there be no noise after midnight...
...question. Putting aside the preference which an American player would naturally give to an American ball, the question of climate comes in. Ayres' balls are made for an English climate, and do not stand the extremes to which our manufacture is exposed and adapted. A ball will have one bound with the thermometer at 40 degrees, and another with it at 90 degrees. We have now adopted Ayres' plan of under-stitching, and our balls will not cut and tear on gravel...
