The hearty co-operation of everybody interested in the success of Harvard baseball is cordially asked...

...first editorial continues one begun in a recent issue; the subject is "athletic management which should have for its aim the gratification of the undergraduates' lives for out-of-door sport." Athleties should be managed, as far as games are concerned, to favor the undergraduates. The undergraduate wants "convenience;" he does not want to suffer the least bit of inconvenience in connection with athletic contests. Convenience is his due and "he wont be happy until he gets...
