...practice of the baseball squad for the past week has been somewhat ragged owing to the muddy condition of the field. The material, although still undeveloped, promises to furnish at least an average team. The fielding has been unusually clean and sharp for so early in the season, and the base running, which was very poor the first of the week, shows marked improvement. The batting so far has been lamentably weak especially in the games with Tufts and Fordham. The pitching is fair, but there is yet great room for improvement. The game with Manhattan Saturday was cancelled...
...Sophomore class dinner last night suffered somewhat in its interest from the comparative scantiness of the attendance. Only 170 men were present. Responding to the toast, "The Class," R. W.

Within the stadium will be the football gridiron, surrounded by an oval running track 440 yards in length, as well as a straight-away track the finish of which will...
...temporary float at the University Boat House. The order was as follows: Stroke, McGrew; 7, Ayer; 6, Stevens; 5, Haycock; 4, Stone; 3, Ames, 2, Wolcott; bow, James; cox., H. Bullard '02. After a short row down the river the crew returned to the boathouse, and, with a somewhat changed order, rowed a short distance upstream. The regular floats will probably be put out today, and, if the weather permits, a number of crews will...
