...College nine and Boston University yesterday afternoon was called, on account of rain, after three innings had been played. The score stood three to one in favor of Harvard. Boston scored her run in the first inning and the College nine brought in three runs in the third. Neither team did very creditable work, Harvard scoring through Boston's loose work rather than from good playing of their...

At a comparatively small cost hand-ball courts can be erected in the open air; the space used will be small and the running expenses will be nothing...

Many undergraduates, too, might be expected to choose Class Day. At any rate, the conflict of dates will cause a division of interests, and neither event will be so successful as it otherwise would be.

Neither a diamond nor a running track could be built on Soldiers Field in time for use this season and certainly very few men could be induced to attend games on the old grounds if they would be obliged to stand...
