...Ernst, and errors by Furman and Cutts. The Princeton Nine were unable to bat Ernst in this game, but five men reaching first base. Our men batted Furman more heavily than they would have done had he been sure of his catcher, who was suffering from sore hands. Ernst led at the bat, Wright, Latham, and Nunn also doing well. Nunn and Wright played best in the field for Harvard, while Hamill and Dodge excelled for Princeton. Immediately after the game an excellent dinner was given to the Nine by their attentive hosts. In the evening the Princeton Glee Club...
...Hunt flied to Latham; Funkhouser reached first on Thayer's fumble; Dodge hit hard for right centre, but was put out by a splendid catch by Latham. Latham's splendid stop of Clarke's base-hit, and his subsequent difficult fly-catches, saved Harvard from a damaging inning. Nunn led off with a base-hit, and by clever base running stole second and third; Alger went out on a foul fly to Karge; Thayer hit hard to right field; Wigton made a good jump, and caught the ball in his left hand, and by quick fielding threw-Nunn...
...RECENT episode in a recitation in English 2, which has already received the editorial notice of the Crimson, has probably led many of us to form an opinion as to whether good reading, in such an elective as this in Shakespeare, is or is not necessary; as to whether it is merely a blessing for which, if he gets it, the instructor is to be humbly thankful, but to enforce which he is not bound to make an effort; or else an absolute requisite, and worthy of the greatest amount of time and attention. In other words...
...whose mark was something like minus 18 on the mid-years, rated, on a subsequent consultation of the "curve," at nearly plus 40, we begin to fear that even equations and curves may err. We trust other instructors, seeing that the curve is for once wrong, will be led to overlook their mid-year calculations, and perhaps make a similar pleasing correction...
...Lamb's pitching, which was remarkably fine, while the Yale men batted Cruger with comparative ease. Had our pitcher been in the good condition in which we have seen him, their base-hit column would not have amounted to so much, we can safely say. For Yale, Lamb led at the bat and in the field, closely followed by Walden, whose play at second base was good. Thompson and Borie struck well, but the former did poorly at short. Ives, who is also catcher of the University Nine, hardly came up to the standard we had expected. The Yale Freshmen...
