Once again Lampy has gone back to the bull rushes! His weary Ibis is a sad, sad sight, sunken deep in the mire, weary from lost battles on the ice, the track, and the diamond. Far off in Cambridge only the fame of the CRIMSON is heard. The score was 16 to 14. All Lampy's bombs, jeers, kicks, jokes (?), beer, cheers, and bean blowers were of no avail before the cool experts of the pride of American journalism. Nothing could overtax the nerve of the men who had braved the terrors of Memorial Hall's fishballs. Small fry from...
Then the fatal inning came and nine journalists walked across the end of all travels. The muckers stopped their yap, the aesthetic authors vanished to their--verse, the fire-crackers were put under the bench. The lead was never overcome, the CRIMSON's star twirler toyed with the heart-sick jokers, and our much-beloved, versatile, admiring, fellow-slingers of the ink bit the dust...

...CRIMSON will once more show its athletic superiority today by defeating the Lampoons in baseball on Soldiers Field at 4 o'clock.

It is rumored that several members of major league professional teams have been shanghaied and brought to Cambridge to take part in the game; but the CRIMSON team, trained to the minute on Memorial...
...athletes of the University daily have shown a dexterity truly remarkable and were even mistaken for the University nine by a bystander on Soldiers Field recently. In fact Coach Pieper, watching the team at work a few days ago, annexed several members to the University squad; but the CRIMSON, in no way daunted by this setback, will bring to the game today as noble an aggregation of ball-tossers as Harvard has ever produced. At the bat the wearers of the "C" are formidable, and never allow a pitched ball to go by them, being especially effective on high balls...
