...spring concert of the Glee Club and Pierian Sodality, Wednesday evening 8th, was a success in every way. The orchestral members of the Pierian and the glees of the club showed careful training on the part of the leaders. In respect of shading and delicacy both organizations show much improvement since the fall concert. A welcome member was the Larghetto, by Prof. Paine, written as a trio for piano and strings. It is as pleasing as a concert piece as it is remarkable as a composition. We hope that the Pierian will not fail to continue in this branch...
...batting of Harvard was good, ten out of thirty-one chances being accepted. In this respect they far outplayed their opponents. The trouble seemed to be, except in the first inning, a total inability to make safe hits when most needed. Harvard reached first base several more times than Yale, but with the exception of Baker they all failed to get home...

Hitherto, the referee has had to use a large tugboat from which to superintend the start and to follow the crews down the course. This has proved inconvenient in more ways than one, the crews have been unable to get very near the referee, and on such a large boat as a steam tug the officer in question cannot easily move around among the boats, but must lie moored...

And while we have no doubt that both Bishop Spaulding and J. Gilmary Shea are authors worthy of respect when once their works are known, still we beg to assure the exchange editor of our friendly contemporary, the Notre Dame Scholastic, that we hardly think the vote on the list would be materially changed, if its two candidates were put forward...
...wretched weather and the wetness of the ball. The batting was excellent. It is very encouraging to see the nine hit the ball as easily as they did yesterday, especially when matched against so good a pitcher. With such a marked improvement as has been shown in this respect and also in the base running, we feel confident of success in the future...
