...attended Professor Dyer's reading of his translation of the Iphigenia of Euripides yesterday evening were treated to an exceptionally fine bit of literature. The publishing of these relations which we may expect at no very distant day will give all lovers of Greek a chance to place a valuable volume on their shelves...
There is the material in the candidates for base-ball honors this year for a good nine, the only position which it may prove difficult to fill being that of pitcher, and it is rather more than the college should expect to find another man like Nichols or Smith.

...without the membership ticket. The fee is small, and a ticket entitles a member to attend all future athletic meetings. It is something which every man must possess sooner or later during his college course. The hours of the secretary are posted in all the dormitory entries, so we expect to hear that every man in '90 has been made a member of the H. A. A. before the date of the first winter meeting...
