...special events. In the two-mile relay race between Yale, Dartmouth, and Columbia, Dartmouth secured second place with Columbia first. The Dartmouth team was made up of R. P. Prichard '07, W. b. Evans '08, G. E. Shipley '08, and Captain W. Jennings '08, who are all fast runners. Of these Captain Jennings made the best time, doing his half-mile in about 2 minutes, 1 second. Shipley also made good time. The University team has not yet had the advantage of outside competition, but has developed consistently under Coaches Lathrop and Quinn. Some very creditable exhibitions were made...
...margin, for the team is especially strong this year as proved by the splendid showing made in the class games. The Freshmen will be unusually strong in the field events and should also win most of the places in the distance runs. The preparatory schools, however, have some very fast runners in the sprints and should secure practically all the points in the 100 and 220-yard dashes. The points in the hurdles should be about evenly distributed...
Maine's first chance to score was in the third, but it was killed by a fast double play. After Chase had fouled out, Quint reached first on Simons' error, but was doubled up with Goodrich on the latter's grounder to third, Pritchett to McCall to Briggs.

Again in the sixth, Scales and Mayo were doubled up after Goodrich had struck out. Maine scored in the fifth after two were down. Smith reached second on Simons' wide...
...University baseball team had a snappy practice yesterday on the regular diamond. The rest which the squad was given the day before seemed to put lots of life into the men and the warm weather, too, helped considerably to produce fast ball. Briggs was out for the first time since the Southern trip and took light work, but Leonard did not report, preferring to take no chances with his strained tendon. They will probably both be in the line-up on Saturday against Dartmouth...
Dartmouth has an exceptionally fast team this spring and several star pitchers. Their games thus far have shown them to be one of the most formidable college teams of the season. Coach Donovan expects to have both Leonard and Briggs in shape for Saturday's game; but no chances will be taken with either of them. Hartford will probably start the game in the box, with Captain Skillen pitching for Dartmouth...
