...shortfield position will be covered by H.W. Foote '27. His arm is rated one of the strongest in amateur baseball, and his ability at luring men off third is unmatched. Together with Donald Gibbs '27, he will cover the keystone sack. Gibb's right arm has been ailing this spring, but he has readily learned to throw with his south paw, and should be at no disadvantage...
...Barbee drew a pass and scored on Burns' hit to center field. Two more tallies, both unearned, were added to the Crimson total in the fifth. Donaghy walked and reached second when Trenchard threw wild after picking up Barbee's bunt. The bases were loaded when Wilson failed to cover first on Burns' bunt to Walker Jones, grounded to first, but Trenchard dropped the throw home, allowing Donaghy to score. Barbee crossed, the plate a minute later on Zarakov's sacrifice...

It is only fair to add, however, that one of the twins died. In "Hero-Worship", Mr. Coolidge loosely strings together four anecdotes, told in a straightforward manner that redeems them from what might become fatuity in less steady hands. This is followed...
...discussion will cover a wide field including such topies as "Problems of Belief," "International Relations," "Industry and Race," "Modern Education," and "Social Relationship." The conference will be split up into groups that will be headed by experienced leaders and these groups will meet for special discussion each morning. The afternoon will be devoted to general meetings and recreations...
