While we are of the opinion that it is somewhat early to get discouraged about the season's baseball prospects, we still believe that Harvard has a right to expect a better exhibition at any time than that of the nine on Saturday. It is easy to blame the defeat to individual weakness in a single inning, but coming as this did early in the game, it should have proved an incentive to snappy and careful play. The Tufts nine was by no means a strong one, and its lead of four runs in the first inning no insurmountable difficulty...

...Cercle production the play is to be staged as Moliere himself produced it: There will be but one stage setting throughout and this will represent three different scenes at different times. At the right and left are the houses of Sganarelle and Geronte respectively, and at the back centre a woodland scene.

Here losing control of his machine he rode straight into the river. With great pluck and presence of mind he rode right on, and after fifteen seconds under water was seen riding up the opposite bank. He says that he is going to suggest this as one of the events at the water sports next June...

...seems that they are unquestionably right. Granted that the Tree is a Senior affair, the ladies, and as many of them as possible, have always been the attractive feature and in fact the raison d'etre of the exercises, and the more their number is reduced the less successful such exercises will be. If their number is reduced the other classes will begin to lose interest in the affair, and Harvard can not afford to let slip her single annual chance of getting the whole body of undergraduates together. Moreover the graduates who attend the exercises add zest...
