...April number of the Harvard Law Review is the first issue of the third volume. The new editorial board is made up as follows: G. P. Furber, editor in chief; C. Hudson, treasurer; E. J. Rich, P. S. Rust, A. C. Thayer, L. F. Hyde, A. C. Rounds, H. Schofield, E. R. Thayer and W. G. Thompson. The leading article in the April number is contributed by Samuel D. Warren and Louis D. Brandcis, and is entitled "The Law of Ponds." It is an answer to the article on "Great Ponds" in the February number. Professor J. B. Ames...
...practice which the nine was to gain from play with professionals this year seems to have resulted in little good so far. The work of the team in the first inning of yesterday's game was simply abominable; no excuse can be given for most of the errors which were made. Almost every man on the team seemed half asleep, and before they became awake again the game was lost. Even as it was there might have been some hopes of retrieving the poor work of the first inning, if the batting had not been atrocious. When a record...
After the first inning, however, the team played well together. The infield showed much improvement over the work in the last game, and the men backed each other up well.

The men practiced batting and fielding, Captain Brown doing most of the coaching. The team will play its first game (an exhibition one) this afternoon with the Shamrock club of Cambridge. A number of men have been included in the eleven that will play today, with the view of testing their abilities. No serious practice has been possible as yet, owing to the lack of a suitable ground, or rather...
...Brooks is also a candidate for pitcher. He played at North East Harbor last summer, and seems to have good control of the ball. Mason, who caught last year, is not now in college. E. F. Fitzhugh is a candidate for this position. Peckham, who covered first base last year has left college and A. W. Weld will probably play there. A. B. Nichols, who played third base on his freshman nine, may play again this year. H. W. Corning will probably be in his old place at short-stop, and Crosby, Parker, and Cummings in the outfield...
