Hanson, '92, has proved himself an eflicient short stop on his class nine, and is perhaps the best of the several spoken of for this position. Durell, '89, who has been in the right field, will perhaps remain at his old post or take centre field, and McMillan, '91, catcher for his class nine, will take his place.

One of the most unsatisfactory features of our college life is that every athletic victory brings with it disagreeable consequences; that every bright cloud, so to speak, has its dark lining. Can not an individual be a freshman and a man at once? If these would-be tough freshmen were mature enough to realize how silly such...
