Besides the regular delegates there were a number of base-ball men seen about the corridors, who rendered valuable professional assistance. Chief among those from Yale were noticed Bremner and Badger, who have filled important positions on the Yale nines of the past. F. W. Smith, '86, and James A. Frye, captain of the champion CRIMSON nine, were present also. Representatives from Spalding of Chicago and Reach of Philadelphia advocated the advantages of their respective firms...

...toward this feeling of friendly and open intercourse that Mr. Cowles' speech tended the other evening, and those who heard it were more than glad to return the advance in double measure, And so we feel sure that any ill feeling between Harvard and Yale in the past is due in a great measure to the careful nourishing of the seeds of jealousy by outside influences, particularly by that of the daily public press.

...seem necessary that there should be so many of them. Last night as I entered the hall I was assaulted by eight boys all anxious to dispose of a Record. As a student approaches the hall he encounters several boys who act as skirmishers, and if he gets past them he is met by the main body of boys who rush at him with a howl and inform him of the sole reliableness of the paper which happens to comprise the greater part of their stock. The boys seem to think that students come to the hall to amuse them...

Princeton's athletic theme for the past few days has been the new base-ball league. The vote of the mass meeting which empowered Princeton's delegates in the matter had not a dissenting voice. Columbia was welcomed as a member, and it is the desire of all Princeton men that Yale lay aside her accustomed feeling of suspicion and stubbornness, and sympathize with the movement. It is the universal opinion that she will be compelled so to do, or be boycotted by the trio of colleges...
