...regard to enthusiasm at the games, a word might be said about a just distribution of applause. On this point we know we have the concurrence of some of the men most interested in base ball. From a standpoint of justice as well as of courtesy, the college ought to extend as warm a welcome as possible to the visiting teams and applaud their good plays. This is the only gentlemanly way in which to enter into sport, and it is a custom which should prevail as if by instinct in every branch of Harvard athletics. In the past, there...

...subject, "The Present Position of the Independent Man" will treat the questions of this year's state campaign and their application to the present situation in the national politics from the standpoint of a man who allies himself to that party in which he sees the greatest opportunities for good government. Mr. Storey has of late been identified with the Democratic party and his talk on Wednesday will be in large measure a discussion as to whether that party has kept its pledges and is hence entitled to the support of the honorable and intelligent portion of the community...
