...first number of the Lampoon, which appears to-night, is, on the whole, creditable. There are, it is true, a few puns which indicate either remarkable tenacity on the part of the editors, or great forgetfulness, and then the editorials are somewhat lacking in point and brilliancy. However, the general tone of the issue is an improvement over the average of last year...
...Dicky Bird's Freshman," there is a cleverly constructed situation, although the effect is somewhat marred by unnecessary length. There is some sparkle in "By the Way," and the soliloqy of the Boston terrier, illustrated by P. Bartlett '02 is capital.

Coolidge, at shortstop, is a brilliant player and covers a great deal of ground, but is not sure. Wendell covers his territory well, is strong in throwing to the infield, and leads the team in batting. Devens and George have shown great improvement lately and may be relied upon to do good work this afternoon. Stillman...
