...only man in college who can hold Dann's switt pitching. His strongest point, however, is at first base, which he is able to cover easily. He has played more or less in the field, but is not a very sure man outside of the diamond.

The class of '90 made an unenviable reputation in base-ball, and if '91 is trying to follow that illustrious example she can do no better...

The report is very encouraging, and proves that the members of the managing committee and board of directors are the right men in the right place. The following extract from the report will show the scheme of work for the year...
