...game with Brown on Wednesday last has materially changed the feeling of the college in regard to the chances of the final success of the nine. At the bat they did so much better than was expected, and exhibited such fine form in the field, that they inspired great hope of a victory in the game with Yale on Saturday. Their fielding throughout has been almost unexceptional, the great weakness being in their batting; but with such marked improvement as has just been shown, the prospect is very encouraging.

The price of tickets will be: Yard tickets, 25 cents; Memorial, 50 cents; Tree, 75 cents; Saunders, 75 cents. The price...

It is true that the college has by no means earned any right to this privilege by any generous support of the club, but the tradition of open-air singing on the steps of Matthews by the club is one that should not be given up as it is one of the pleasantest features of college life and always tends to increase the interest and pride felt by the college in its Glee...
