The value to Harvard of such training of track and field athletes in the preparatory schools in this neighborhood is obvious, and Harvard men should do all they can to encourage it. The alumni of the school ought to feel an especial interest in the men, many of whom will be in Harvard during the next few years, and will doubtless take part in her contests with other colleges...

From this time on, it must have grown rather dark in the neighborhood of second and third base, or else the umpire lost his eysight, for his base decisions were, to say the least, queer.
