...rather a lively exhibition of ball playing on Holmes' field, yesterday, when Dr. Pope was in the pitcher's box. It was an off day for the doctor, as will be seen by the score, and had that gentleman been at his best we dread to prophesy what the result might have been. It was also rather an off day for the rest of the doctor's nine who failed to support him with their accustomed accuracy. Martin, however, played well. Their batting was better. The doctor led the nine, making a fine base hit in the seventh inning...
...spend a little more forethought on what we ought to have by us when the desire to spend an hour or two in reading came upon us, we would gain great returns for our trouble. A great part of the aimless reading of the summer is a direct result of pure carelessness. If we should only take proper precautions to have by us some of the books which we have determined to read before the advent of warm weather, we would undoubtedly accomplish far more than if we trusted to chance to furnish us with our reading material.

From the result of the last game with Dartmouth, the college confidently expects our nine to win, and the nine will undoubtedly do their best to fulfill these anticipations.

Although the crew has been described as a faulty one, we have, nevertheless, great confidence in it and hopes of success. Whatever may be the result of the races we may rest satisfied that all that was possible for the captain and men to accomplish has been done. It would doubtless be gratifying to every member of the crew to know, by the presence of a large number of students at their last row, that their...
...success with which the college has met in the championship ball games this spring has resulted in a considerable increase in the interest taken by the students in this sport. Ferhaps the strongest proof of this increased interest is that furnished by the many "scrub" and "table" nines which have been formed among the, so to speak, non-professional players of the college. This result ought to be encouraged, for in many ways it is a most desirable one. In the first place, it proves a most excellent method to get the men out of doors for exercise, a result...
