...just beginning to rise. Unfortunately a production set in so delightful a key has to be something more than a mere picture, or even a mere dramatization; it ought to be a play in its own right, and this "Major Pendennis" is not. It is little else but a string of amatory episodes arbitrarily put together without much skill. The adapter needs a link more enduring than Mr. Drew to correlate his rosary of prettily colored beads. In a former play, "Becky Sharp," adapted on much the same method, he had such a link in the radiant personality...
Team A was given a close game by Team B in yesterday's University baseball practice, the first-string players securing a 2 to 1 victory only after a close nine-inning contest.

Evans also played well in left field, with two difficult put-outs and a base hit to his credit. Wolverton for Team II had a good afternoon, driving out a double and playing errorless ball at first base. Lancaster...
...perhaps the best of the boxmen, but is a trifle wild, and G. H. Brecker, who has been showing plenty of speed, has also experienced the same difficulty. Of the other men, Robinson, Washburn and Newton have the edge and any of these may develop into a first-string pitcher. Robinson is the only left-hander among the candidates, and should prove a valuable member of the pitching staff...
