...varsity played a dull and unintereresting game on Holmes Field yesterday afternoon. The work of both nines was listless. Harvard's play was marked by Cummings' effective pitching and the general poor base-running. The base runners paid no attention to the coachers at all. Lafayette played a very fair game, but her fielders made some costly errors...
...support behind the bat was admirable, but in the infield and outfield many inexcusable errors were made. Harvard, on the other hand, fielded well and batted in fine form. Yale ran bases with more spirit than Harvard, and another weak point of the latter was her coaching, which was poor, especially when a runner was on third.

Johnson's hit and steal, a passed ball...
...Brackett, '91, followed for the negative. The McKinley bill is not just. Those who have had the strongest "pull" have benefitted themselves to the detriment of those who were less skilled in the use of the political machine. The bill discriminates between rich and poor. For example the cheap articles used by the poorer classes pay a heavy duty. Less than one-fifth of the inhabitants of the United States are benefitted by protection...
