Every man in the Freshman class should be in front of University Hall promptly at 2.15 o'clock this afternoon to march in a body with the band to Soldiers Field. It is the duty of every Freshman to take this opportunity of showing his class spirit and of proving to the members of the baseball team that they have the class behind them...
...Second nine was, on the whole, fairly good, but was marred by several costly errors, the three made by Colby at shortstop being excusable, however, in view of the fact that he was new in the position. The bunting showed improvement, but the base-running lacked both spirit and good judgement, and was responsible for the loss of several runs.

Hammond, for the Second nine, pitched a creditable game, allowing only two bases on balls...

The batting was again most unsatisfactory. Against a pitcher much inferior to Stillman, the team aggregated two less hits than their opponents, and were generally unable to hit at the opportune moment. One successful bunt was made. Although not spirited...
