...matches to three, on Divinity Field, Saturday afternoon. The fastest match of the afternoon was that in which G. C. Caner '17 and W. Rand, 3d, '17 defeated Knox and Riker by the score of 6-4, 6-4. The match was close throughout, and was characterized by steady, brilliant playing by both sides. Captain R. N. Williams, 2d, '16 easily disposed of L. Beekman in a match which resulted in a 6-2, 6-0 score...
...score of 8-7 on April 29, however, proved costly, for Captain Vaughn sustained a strained tendon and has just returned to his position again. The next game, with Holy Cross on May 3, was won by Yale 4-2, the fielding of the victorious team being particularly brilliant. On May 5 Yale won again, defeating Georgetown 4-1 in a well-played game. This winning streak was broken up by Virginia, which, on May 6, overwhelmed the Yale team 13-1, amidst ragged fielding on the Blue's part and heavy hitting by the winning nine, and Dartmouth defeated...
...stories are rather too much in the note of the Saturday Evening Post, where a broader development of Biggers's "Next to Advertising" would be a feature.

Cowdin was also cited for the second time in army orders for his brilliant aviation exploits as a member of the American Flying Corps. The citation says of Cowdin, who is now a first sergeant...
...contest was marked by erratic fielding. In all, seven errors were made, but this was offset by several really brilliant plays. Davidson, the Brown third-baseman, played his position with consistent cleverness, while Bothfeld and Abbot supplied the features. The former closed Brown's end of the fourth inning by making a pretty running catch of Ormsby's rap to left field and then by doubling Murray at second, who was well on his way toward scoring. Abbot similarly closed out Brown in the eighth with a running stop of Ormsby's hard smash through Garritt. Harte was the star...
