...recent misfortunes to both Nines would warrant us in expecting. It is unfair to criticise Perry as if he were an experienced catcher, and he deserves every praise for his steady play and evident determination to take all chances. Annan, as short-stop, beside his general good play, made the prettiest hit of the game, a beautiful two-baser. Nevins, in the field, made a remarkable left-hand catch, and at the pitcher's position his throwing did great execution...
Those students who witnessed this game were repaid for the trouble of their trip by the sight of one of the most interesting contests of the season. As the score shows, each side had made two runs at the end of the seventh inning, and at that time a glorious victory for Harvard seemed at least possible to her excited partisans. But the batting of the Mutuals in the last two innings was too much for our amateurs, and we were obliged to content ourselves with having fought a good fight. The playing of our out-fielders...
...Nine were almost entirely free from that nervousness which usually takes possession of them in Yale matches, and fielded in fine style. Cutler won fresh laurels by his magnificent fielding, while the three basemen, aided by Annan, rendered running the bases an extremely delicate matter for their opponents.

It is entirely incompatible with the theory of the game of base-ball that wild, brute-force throwing should be effective among good players...
Last Monday evening the members of this club met in Upper Massachusetts for the purpose of listening to the reports of its officers and transacting business. Mr. H. L. Morse presided. It was reported by the Secretary that whatever communications of importance had been received had been already made public through the college papers, in consequence of which he had nothing of interest to give. The treasurer's report was not so satisfactory, our finances being represented as being in a very bad way. One thousand dollars, at least, must be raised immediately, or the crew would be unable...
...prospectus" of the "Examinations for Women in 1874," which represents what Harvard is willing to do in the cause of female education, has just been issued. It is gotten up with much care, and is well calculated to convey an accurate idea of the requirements that will be made. There are to be two examinations in succeeding years, beginning with 1874, the former of which has to be passed before the latter can be applied for. The preliminary, examination, as it is called, embraces nearly all that is required for admission to college; while the second allows the candidate...
