...appearance of John Kelly, the regular intercollegiate umpire. The captains of the two nines finally agreed to ask Upton the catcher of the Phillips Andover team to act as umpire. His decisions were entirely satisfactory. Before the game the nines each got about twenty minutes practice and both received much applause for their good work. Princeton's men seemed at this time almost sure of their ball in all fielding work. At 3.30 the game commenced amid many cheers from the Princeton bench, and a faint one for Harvard by the Lehigh...

The Bicycle club has gone to much trouble to arrange this meeting, the first of the kind in the history of our college athletics, and the field of entries is large. In the past year or two bicycling has developed to an astonishing extent at Harvard, and we can boast of several of the fastest riders in intercollegiate athletics. This afternoon the races will be close, and will be doubly interesting from the fact that...
