...following extract from a recent editorial in the New York Times will serve to show in what light our colleges are regarded as far as politics are concerned...

If the championship is to be decided, the captains of the three upper classes must get together at once and arrange a couple of dates before class-day.

Howland then struck out. Campbell hit to McConkey, who made a pretty stop, but threw far over McBride's head, allowing Knowlton and Quackenboss to score, and giving Campbell his third. Dann finished Yale's wretched exhibition of ball-playing by a throw to third to catch Campbell. The ball struck the runner's back and bounced into left field, allowing Harvard one more run.
