...training except those who are trying for the positions of either pitcher or catcher. The others will begin immediately after the mid-year. In the meantime the new candidates are practiced in stopping grounders and in starting.

As this dinner is one of the most important points in the life of every class, we hope that Ninety-three will do everything possible to make it a success. The dinner is a strong unifying force. It is the first time that...
Owing to the fast pace set by two crew men, the distance of nine miles was covered by the hounds in 1 hour and 2 minutes, while it took the hares one and a half minutes longer. The hounds made up 8 1-2 minutes of the time allowance, thus catching the hares, whose cups go to the first three hounds. This was by far the most successful and enjoyable run of the season...
