But this year, Mr. Stuyvesant and his family left the churchyard without leaving their individual checks for $900 at the church.

This spring Harvard victories over Princeton and the Tigers' decisive verdict over the Green have given Crimson rooters some ground for the belief that the Dartmouth away will be broken. Caldwell, the Nassau twirler whom Harvard so maltreated, pitched an almost perfect game against the Green, retiring the first 26 opponents in order and then yielding two hits before getting the last...
