...been attended by rains. Yesterday but four innings were played at Amherst, the score at that time presaying an easy victory for our team. We have only to wait for better weather and trust that the score of yesterday will be made good in a game that can count as a victory for the championship. The college at large has felt very nervous about the base-ball prospects ever since the Columbia game, but we hope that in the light of coming victories, and the score of yesterday, confidence may return...
...once in the second, and again in the third. In the 4th with four hits and several errors, Harvard scored seven times. The rain which had begun to fall in the first inning, now increased, but it was hoped to finish the fifth inning, so that it might count for a game.

By the customary rule all hits over the left and centre field fences were to count as two baggers. If this rule had not been in force Harvard's total hits would have amounted to 45, as several balls were knocked over the fences...
...proved, the last defeat of a wonderful campaign, from the same opponents. But, omens aside, our energetic nine, by yesterday's game and by the other recent games has shown itself in need of still more practice. Every minute in the field must be made to count, if success against Yale and Princeton and other opponents is to be won. Especially the nines at Yale and Princeton have, by their recent scores, proved themselves remarkably strong. Neither of them will be defeated easily. That is their determination, if we may judge from the reports of constant and close work that...
...lecture is merely directive, and does not by any means represent the work of the course. Library work, laboratory work, independent study form a large part of many of the most important courses. If, then, recitation attend dance is to be more sharply looked after, let these other things count also. Let a man's three or four hours in the library, or extra time in the laboratory balance against some of his non-attendance at recitations...
