Paine pitched well enough for Harvard to have won any ordinary game, but was not nearly so effective as he was in the last two games at Providence. During most of the game he had good control but in the fourth inning he gave three bases on balls and allowed one hit, which, with an error by Dean, gave Brown two runs. Scannell gave him splendid support and saved a number of wild pitches. Not a man on either side tried to steal second. Chandler played an excellent game and all three of the outfielders had plenty...
...opposed to intercollegiate contests, but that as yet these men have been in the minority. The intercollegiate games have been preserved by the efforts of the younger members of the Faculty, and one of these men said last night that such extreme and reckless celebrations would have the effect of completely silencing them when the subject was next brought up in a Faculty meeting. This is the situation, and we must face it in a right and sensible way. Unless firearms and firecrackers are given up in celebrating the games that are to come, we shall probably lose our intercollegiate...
Although the plan of wearing uniforms in the parade of June 3 has been definitely given up, we should, at least, endeavor to avoid that irregular appearance which a crowd of students, attired in all sorts of costumes, from golf suits to cutaways, would produce.

I believe that this impromptu uniform is as comfortable and convenient as any that could be devised, and I have already heard a considerable...
...would have a good chance to win in dual games with Yale, her prospects next Saturday are made less bright by the entry, from smaller colleges with weak teams, of individual athletes of unusual ability, who will take away many points in which Harvard is especially strong. The effect of such entries will be the worst in the dashes and the quarter-mile. Wefers, of Georgetown, will run in the dashes, and Burke will run in the quarter for Boston University. Harvard will also suffer from the absence of Hoyt, not only losing a probable five points, but leaving these...
BALTIMORE, MD., May 25.- Reports have been current during the last few days to the effect that, owing to the failure of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-road to meet its dividend obligations, Johns Hopkins University is in a bad financial state. Altogether the University holds about $1,350,000 of preferred and common stock of the road. A general meeting of the citizens of Baltimore will be held tomorrow for the purpose of starting a subscription list, with $250,000 in view. Should the Baltimore and Ohio receivers not pay the stock interest due July 1st, it is certain...
