...Nine of 1878, and the way they batted that ball was delightful to behold. Tyng, after Thayer had gone out by Walden to Downer, hit safely for two bases in the direction of left field, and took third on the inability of two thirds of the Yale nine standing one behind another to stop the ball fielded in by Brown; this had no effect detrimental to the earning of Tyng's run, as no chance was offered to put him out; and Latham, Ernst, and Wright followed with safe hits, and earned three runs...
...exceedingly well illustrated. I must not praise it as if I had carefully studied all its details, but I am disposed to be something more than pleased to see so compact, so well-filled, so handsomely presented a manual for the use of the stranger in the University city, - one too which the native of the town will find to contain much that he has forgotten and not a little which he has never known...

Not only is a victory won, but the disgrace of 1876 is wiped out. Yale had a strong crew, and one that no one need be ashamed of; and if anything can take away from...
...expire until a year from next October. If he should sell the boats he would still have the rent to pay on an estate that was bringing him in no income. Mr. Blakie may lock the doors of the boat-house next October, and refuse to admit any one until a sufficient number of paying members is obtained, and this would be a wise course for him to take. In spite of these facts we still think that "the status of the 'house-clubs' for next year does not seem to warrant the discouraging article in the Advocate." There...
