...grounders. In the fielding practice which followed, the infield showed up especially well, Leonard and Simons playing a fast game. Howe caught in place of Currier, who was given a day off, and his throwing to bases was hard and accurate. The outfield covered much ground, and Dana, in right field, showed improvement in his work...
When Williams came to bat in the extra inning, the score was 1 to 1, and no scoring had been done since the second inning. Templeton, who had taken Mahan's place in right field at the end of the sixth, started off with a single and was sacrificed to second by Osterhout.

...editorial board of the Monthly itself contains a n umber of men whose proclivities show conclusively that they are fully competent to criticise intelligently the themes at least of Freshmen, if not of upper-classmen. Such men are not "bound to be" narrow. If they are of the right sort, they bring to the work of the small section new ideas and a different point of view. The failure of those younger instructors who have proved unsuccessful (and the number is gratifyingly small) has usually been due to lack of the personal qualities necessary for successful teaching rather than...
