Class Day week and the fact that six members of the team are to play their last home game against Yale should provide sufficient inspiration, but there are other and more substantial reasons for expecting much of the team. The men work well together and they all know baseball, They have been well taught and they have been infused with the right spirit. Coach Piper has trained them in the rudiments and in the fine points of the game with untiring devotion. His sympathetic intimacy with the men under his charge has had much to do with the season...
...College treats the affair with seeming unconcern, but the real kicking comes from the officers of the Athletic Association, who know the facts. While willing to concede great liberty to the major teams in the matter of medical attendance, training-tables, expensive outfit and "H" sweaters, they are averse to unbending to the extent of dinners, theatre-parties, pictures, and like unessential.

His records appear on a special board in the meeting room of the Gymnasium, but what reader of the Illustrated would go near the Gymnasium! Kilpatrick's half-mile...
...hour of 8 o'clock the Seniors will gather in front of Holworthy Hall to go on their annual picnic. In spite of the protests of many years the morning will be made hideous by the blowing of horns and other instruments of torture, and everyone in Cambridge will know that the Seniors are off on a tear. While decent people are trying in vain to sleep, the members of the class of 1909 will receive a mug and a horn from the window of Holworthy 9, and will have their picture taken under the classic elms.
