...Friday the Nine played with the professional Manchesters, and, after a game of twenty-four innings, decided to call the game a draw, the score standing zero to zero. This is by far the most remarkable game on record; and the inability to score was due not only to the dead ball, but also to Ernst's puzzling delivery and the brilliant fielding of the Manchesters. The game was called at 3 P. M. by Mr. Holmes, '78, the Harvards being at the bat. Both Nines retired in striking order for the first two innings, three of the Manchesters falling...
...covered with the names of its winners. The other was presented by graduates - whence its name - in 1872, and was meant to be the principal prize in our annual races. For several years, however, it has not been put up at all; and it bears no record of the few crews who have won it. We have, then, for our races, two valuable cups which have been for some time occupying an almost unknown grave in the safe at the Bursar's office. They have been recently brought to light, and are now to be completely disinterred and again devoted...
...ignorance which both the Record and the Courant display in speaking of "Mr. James Cook" (meaning Rev. Joseph Cook) becomes truly remarkable when we consider that New Haven is the seat of the Yale Theological Seminary, and the place where the New-Englander is published, and that Mr. Cook, besides having passed two years at Yale, is one of the most powerful supporters of the theological views which both the seminary and the magazine represent...
...treaty and the details of the new policy; but this assumption on the part of a newspaper is entirely unjustifiable. A brief outline of the matter discussed would greatly add to the pleasure of the outside reader, while such an outline is necessary to render the paper a record of college events. We wish the new editors success in their endeavors to preset to their readers a paper in every way so interesting as has been the Princetonian throughout its first volume...
...Courant rejoices over "four new rails in the Sophomore fence, three in Junior, and four in the Senior." Yet all is not joy. The Monday morning lectures of last term have been replaced by recitations. The Record attacks the change on the ground that it encourages Sabbath-breaking in order to prepare the recitation; and the Courant thinks that "the scholastic merits of a lecture are never clearer than after a Sunday's rest, and from such a date it always remains fondly vivid at annuals." We wish that words could induce the Courant to wrap itself in the mantle...
