...Clyde and King followed, the latter adding two to the score. Hunnewell took King's place, and played in excellent form until bowled by Wright for five. Then Sullivan was neatly caught at square leg by P. Mansfield, and Whiting was bowled out by Dutton. Brown thus far carried his bat, having made sixty-one runs...
...most important athletic event so far in the annals of the freshman class occurs to day. The freshman game with Yale is one which the whole college turns out to see, and the responsibility of the way in which the class will be considered, athletically speaking, falls in great measure on the shoulders of the members of the nine.

...April "Lit," the first issue of the newly elected '88 board, has made its appearance, and is a very creditable number. The leader on "The Literary Outlook" predicts a new impulse to literary activity at Yale. The most interesting piece by far is the prize oration of the junior exhibition; by Henry L. Stimson, on "Beranger and France." The other body-pieces, most criticisms, are from '89, and of a very good quality...
