...freshman team played Amherst Ninety-two at Amherst Saturday and was overwhelmingly defeated. The whole freshman team seemed demoralized. In the first part of the game Wood was pounded unmercifully, and numerous errors on the part of almost every Harvard fielder gave Amherst a tremendous lead. After the fourth inning Harvard braced and kept Amherst well down, and batted strongly herself. The game was lost, however, long before the end of the game...
Several times during the Newark game yesterday afternoon, the spectators-or rather a small number of the spectators-hooted at and applauded poor playing by the visiting team. It is to be hoped that the greater part of the offenders were not students; but unfortunately some of them wore blazers and a part of the blame therefore falls upon the college...
...thoroughly discussed, so the editorial on that subject does little more than sum up the argument in a forcible way. The old subject of the formation of a second sophomore society is again brought out. It is to be hoped that the matter will not be dropped.

If the Union continues...
What Professor Lumholtz had to say of the natives themselves was, however, the most instructive part of the talk. He is the only European who has ever made this people a study. They are unquestionably the lowest of the human race in the scale of civilization; everything connected with their life proves this. The language is very simple, the vocabulary being extremely limited: there are no general words, as the natives do not make the simplest generalization; whole ideas are expressed by single words, and everything marks a primitive phase of human life. This is even more clearly shown...
