Leeds opened the game with a fly to right field, which was beautifully caught by Hall, with one hand, while running. Hodges then got his base on a safe hit, but was left, as the next two strikers retired in good order. The Bostons scored one run, Barnes getting his first on a base hit and stealing second. In the second innings for the Harvards, Kent opened with a safe fly, Tyng got his first on an error of O'Rourke, Tower and Thatcher made safe hits, and Spinney sent a ball through O'Rourke, letting in Tyng and Tower...
Between the acts we have time to wander about above and below the stage. Everywhere scenery. Here we narrowly escape a douche from "WATERFALL No. 2," and further on find shelter in "COTTAGE SCENE" under "LEFT WING," but soon run against "EGYPTIAN TOMB."

The Brighton Road, too, in sleighing-time, affords a lively and interesting scene. How much better to enjoy it on foot than to run the risk of one of those dreadful accidents which happen every day to drivers there...
...13th inst. is a very newsy number. The Courant is far above the average of college papers, and we congratulate it on the success of its new management. An article on the Yale Club, an institution corresponding to our Thayer Club, has the following: "This institution is now run on the hotel plan, and quite a varied bill of fare is furnished every day. Circumstances seem to favor the adoption of the restaurant plan, and that would doubtless be very convenient for most students, and a good thing for the club." We quote the above to encourage any movement tending...
