...large audience for the season witnessed Harvard defeat Bowdoin Saturday, by a score of 12 to 3. Harvard batted Davis out of the box in 4 innings. Wilson then went in to pitch and did not allow Harvard another hit. Bowdoin batted Smith for only two safe hits and fielded loosely. Harvard fielded well except in the sixth inning, and batted heavily; especially in the second, making two singles, a three bagger, and a home run. Soule led in batting and fielding for the visitors, while the battery carried off the honors for Harvard. Both sides ran bases poorly, Harvard...

The "unexpected" forms such a very important element in the chances of base-ball that the role of a prophet is by no means an easy one to fill.

An omnivorous reader is almost invariably a a thinker of acumen. There is something in being brought face to face with matured thoughts upon indiscriminate topics which is stimulating to a high degree. We hear again and again...
...Winter Meetings have been a great success, - greater than at any time during our memory. There was a great deal of rivalry and spirit displayed at all three meetings; and it is safe to say that what-usually is deemed a bore by the blase upperclassman who "has seen it all before," was interesting and exciting even to his wearied palate. The last meeting especially, was contrary to expectation in many respects, the best of all three; the flying rings, horizontal bar and tumbling were all so excellent as to call forth the excited applause of the oldest spectator...
