...University team did not play yesterday with the life that has characterized their playing this spring. On the bases there was the same carelessness that was responsible for Princeton's victory last week. In the sixth inning, the first two men up were safe, Leonard on a bunt and Briggs on a base on balls; but Leonard was caught off second by a quick throw from Belford and Briggs was put out on an attempted steal...

It is very safe to say that the majority of students in these courses where disturbances occur with systematic regularity do disapprove the method of expression at least. Without the least pretence of being in a position to preach against the faults of some childish students, we do feel that the majority should rule...
