...third, but was doubled up on Dow's foul tip to Carl, and the latter's good throw to Cogswell. Tyng, after two men were out, gave Mincher his base on strikes. Say sent him to second by a high fly to Dow, who, being unable to see the ball on account of the sun, allowed it to drop at his feet. Dailey then retired on a well-caught foul tip to Tyng. Wright missed a foul bound in the fifth, after a long run. Dow made a base-hit in the sixth, and reached second on Cogswell's muff...
Freed from this nuisance, I try to get an idea of when my annuals come; an undertaking that requires me to crowd and push with a lot of others, in order to get a chance to see a notice which, when I do see it, tells me that my examinations all come in the same week.

The Montpelierian gives the following charming picture: "Our campus, out of study hours, is covered with base-ball players and croquet matches, and our reverend Professors even join in the exercise...
...play last evening was "The Field of the Cloth of Gold." This evening and to-morrow afternoon the Seniors give the burlesque "Fair Rosamond." We would again remind students that this is the last year the theatricals can be given, and that, if they wish ever to see them, now is their last opportunity. Tickets can still be obtained from Mr. Harwood. All the money cleared goes for the support of the crew. When the fund from the theatricals falls short, the deficiency must be made up by subscription; and we shall then be called upon to make payments...
