...athletics this spring are but a matter of course. The basis for such an opinion is the fact that her athletic interests are in the hands of veterans. But, we ask, is it an established truth that veteran teams inevitably meet with success? Advocating this idea can but result in inspiring our teams with a feeling of over-confidence which, we know, is always and forever to be avoided. Let the fact that we are tied with Harvard, our valiant adversary, in the number of victories upon land and water incite our men to even greater efforts so that, when...

...annual spring tournament of Exeter Academy will occur this year on May 12. A strong attempt was made to get Andover to contest in the various athletic events, and form an inter-scholastic association. For some reason or other the desired result could not be brought about, although it is possible that in the near future track athletics may be as important a fixture between the two academies as the football and baseball matches. There are twenty events in all, onehalf to take place in the morning, the other during the afternoon. Following is a list of the entries...

The inordinate longing of the average mucker to "steal in" never ceases, and he is eager to put his skill in this line into operation at every opportunity. The result is that a score or so of the Cambridge youth gain access to the grounds every afternoon that the nine plays. A little more care ought to be exercised until the nine gets on Holmes. A couple more policemen would obviate the difficulty, and the cost would...

Marlboro presented a weak team against Harvard yesterday afternoon, and the result was a defeat by the score of sixteen to two. For the last two years, Marlboro has defeated us, but the team has been greatly weakened by the loss of several good men. Only five innings were played yesterday, as the visitors left early in order to catch a train. The game was remarkable for the number of errors made by the visitors, who evidently were not in practice. No less than ten Harvard men got first on errors. Harvard failed to score only in the second inning...
