...view in this instance. It is not often, and we are most thankful therefor, that the employment of such low means comes to light in college affairs. The controversy at first was honorable but it degenerated into a species of party politics which would bring the blush to the face of many political managers in this country. The CRIMSON has been impartial in its course, allowing a full discussion through its communication column, but now we are compelled to announce that the subject is closed as far as we are concerned. We would advise those who have brought the odium...
...forth the enthusiastic applause of the audience. Blackington at third took in grounders marvellously well. He accepted eight chances without an error. Clarke as he has done regularly for the last six years, at Crown, caught in fine form and did not have a passed ball. Choate had to face an eratic delivery, and although his throwing to bases was poorer he played a better game than he usually does and deserves great credit. Mumford's game at second was steady and sure, where he had to handle grounders, but he was intolerably slow in putting the ball...

In face of these facts it is difficult to see how the men can be so careless about their work, as they certainly have been since their return from Cambridge. The Harvard freshmen cannot play on the 11th of June, and this date has been cancelled. Another date for the second game...
...Sanford, Garrison and Furness, that have appeared quite recently and will be read again with pleasure. Messrs. Kent, '82, Kittredge, '83, and Loud, '83, are indexed with much clever verse, while all that is best of Messrs. Scollard and E. D. Sherman has been presented for posterity. The "Two Face" "To Omar," and the "Ballade of a Kiss." are the best of Mr. Houghton's verse in the book, and they are as good as anything he has ever done. This is one of the cleverest of Mr. Kittridge's many clever things...
