...good show for the same position on the university, as he is developing finely under the training of D. A. Jones. Odell, '86, secured a good reputation by his pitching during the Harvard tie game at Brooklyn in June. He is troubled with a lame arm, however, which may hurt his prospects somewhat. Morely, '86, was in the field of his class nine, and stands a chance for the same position in the university nine. Dutcher, '86, has creditably occupied third base in his class nine, and wants to go on the college team in like capacity. D. Winston...
...removal from the service. The provocation of all this talk was the death of Cadet Strang. Young Strang went to the academy from Oregon. He was duly initiated by the boys, and was within 12 hours laid up in the hospital. Shortly afterwards he died. The cadets said he hurt himself by falling out of a hammock.

I will go further and say that I have not unfrequently examined foot ball players during the playing season, and found their bodies bruised and scarred, and I have honored them for the courage they have shown in danger. It takes a brave man to play foot ball constantly...
...case of one, at least, of the colleges; but that may be said of everything that affects character at all. And because anything that helps the growth of character may be perverted, we should not therefore give up striving to develope character. Foot ball can be played without moral hurt, and was, until within the last few, years.
