...game Monday was an improvement on Saturday's game, the men having in a great part recovered from the nervousness consequent upon their first experience with a professional nine. Nunn's fine base running and catching, Olmstead's good work at first base, and Cohen's stop of a hot liner, were the noticeable features of Harvard's game.

They believe that we do not appreciate the deceptive nature of cold liquor on a hot day, and advise that the custom of entertaining the graduating class be given up. They wish it distinctly understood that the Corporation does not pretend nor desire to act as a god-mother to our morals, but does claim the right to look after the property of the College...
