...second excursion of the same sort will be conducted this year by Professor B. K. Emerson of Amherst to the trap range of Mt. Tom, near Holyoke, on Saturday, November 1. The party will meet at the Cooley House, Springfield, Friday evening, October 31 and will take the train for Holyoke the next morning at 8.30 o'clock. The chief features to be seen on the trip are Triassic trap sheets and sandstones, contacts of trap and sandstone, fossil footprints in sandstone, glacial deposits and Connectieut River terraces.

Seven hits of this sort were made, and one of Stillman's and two of Wendell's would have been good for better than singles had it not been for brilliant fielding...
...successful attempt to supply a much needed sort of undergraduate literature--light humor in verse and prose--marks the last number of the Advocate. Stories of that too common type, describing the piquant adventures of a conventional hero and heroine, have happily been passed by in favor of others which are frankly intended to be amusing and nothing more...
