...brilliant game. Burgess distinguished himself by a fine running catch and continued to bat very strongly. The batting of Haughton and T. Stevenson was also excellent. Paine gave seven bases on balls but was very effective and outside of the eighth inning allowed only four hits. With proper support he would have retired Brown with one run. Chandler took Rand's place in right field and played a creditable game, though he was evidently nervous. His error was on a long hit under the willows and was quite excusable. His two-base hit in the eighth inning was very timely...

...former years for the President of the Senior Class to appoint a Committee of Seniors to make all the necessary plans for the services. This year, however, as we have said before, it would be exceedingly appropriate for the Memorial Society to take the matter in hand. The proper observance of Memorial Day clearly comes directly within the sphere of the Society. The Memorial exercises in Sanders Theatre have every year been exceedingly impressive and inspring, and it would be a pity to have them given up. We hope that the Memorial Society will immediately take some steps...
...Theatrical Societies of the University of Pennsylvania are at present making arrangements for the presentation of their production, "No Gentleman of France," on the evening of April 22, at the Hyperion Theatre. The role includes seventy-five members of the University, fifteen of whom are employed in the cast proper and about sixty in the chorus. The play is a Napoleonic burlesque. Seven performances will be given in Philadelphia the week succeeding Easter, after which the company will appear for one night each in Boston, New Haven and New York. The burlesque will be produced entirely under the direction...
