...second inning Spinney and Ames were in together, and before they were separated had scored 52; 10 on byes, a score of 14 for Ames, and 28, a score unprecedented with us, for Spinney. Curtis and Prince also did some good batting, and the Harvard score at the end of the inning was 88. The Albions then made 69, largely on byes, as the Harvards could not field Hooper's balls; and the game closed...
...Phillips, of Cornell; Bowie, of McGill College, Canada; Benton, of Amherst. They drew 1st, 2d, and 3d positions, respectively. The race was for two miles, but the first excited little interest.

The end of the next quarter Bowie struck out a little, but in a moment fell back again, contented to wait. At the opening of the second mile the large audience were thoroughly roused and eager. The runners quickened slightly, but retained their relative positions till the last half-mile, when Benton...

It is beyond dispute that under no other government is so full and free opportunity given to all usefully to develop every...
...Dartmouth boat-house showed that the Dartmouths had crept up into the front line near the western shore, and that Cornell and Bowdoin were making ineffectual spurts to catch the leading boats. A little farther along Amherst also quickened, but failed to catch Harvard and Yale. At the end of a mile and a half it was plain that the race was between Harvard, Yale, Wesleyan, Dartmouth, and Amherst. Harvard could be plainly seen leading all the boats, with the next four nearly neck-and-neck. Columbia was leading the second bunch of boats, which was gradually tailed...
