...match between the winners of the Sophomore and Freshman tournaments will be played at 4 o'clock today between J. I. B. Larned '05 and R. N. Smither '06. The match should be close as Smither plays a somewhat faster game than Larned, but is not so accurate...
...baseball team defeated Brown yesterday by a score of 5 to 0, in an excellently played game, but one that from the spectator's point of view was somewhat lacking in interest, because the sharp fielding and weak batting of both teams reduced the base-running and the scoring to a minimum.

Lawson replaced Hartwell at 7 in the first boat, and Haycock, who had been rowing at 7 in the, second, was moved to 5, his old place being taken by Hartwell...
