...well pleased with the brilliant success achieved by our Nine during the past week. It is somewhat remarkable that one of the very best games played by the Nine for several years should have been played with the same club with which was made the most extraordinary score on record. The game on Thursday week with the Manchester nine displayed some of the fine qualities that have been developed in our men by the careful training of the winter. From the many base hits made three runs only were obtained, a fact that speaks itself for the excellency...
...Yale Nine, says the Courant, has shown great carelessness in its practice games, and much dissatisfaction is felt at the two serious defeats - 4 to 0 and 7 to 0 - which the nine has lately received; the fielding record has been good, but the nine is weak at the bat.

It is to be hoped that a better support will be given to the Nine this spring, especially when games...

A writer in the last Record exposes the fact that the oration was judiciously selected from one delivered in 1869 on "John Milton, Jeremy Taylor, and John Locke as Advocates of Liberty," which was found in a back number of the Yale...
...Record severely condemns the bad habit of marking library books. We would go a little farther, and condemn that of marking even one's own, for this reason: book-marking is like dram-drinking and only total abstinence can safely guard us against excess. Anybody who has seen a young lady's copy of Tennyson, and searched in vain for an unmarked page, will recognize the evils of indulgence. Of course when it comes to marking other people's books, the injury is moral as well as mental...
