...Freshmen with one another. At first glance, the new arrangement seems to require considerably more interest in the Freshman on the part of the Senior than is usually manifested. In operation, it is not expected that it will require more than a small sacrifice of time.

ITHACA, NEW YORK, may 8, 1908,-The University baseball team arrived here at noon today, after a rather bard journey. After lunch it cleared somewhat and Cornell held practice on Percy Field, but it began to rain heavily when Harvard started practice. The diamond is in very poor condition, and it is doubtful if the game can be played, in which case the team will return early tomorrow...
