Class Day is distinctly Seniors' Day. Its success depends largely upon our ability to keep the Yard solely in the possession of Seniors and their friends. To accomplish this, every precaution has been taken. Tickets have been made from special sketches, copyrighted and numbered, and a record will be made of the holder of every ticket that leaves the Committee's office...
...membership of the Verein has more than doubled this year owing chiefly to those small plays, and to the lectures which have been given throughout the winter by members of the German Department and German visitors to the University. The finances of the Verein were helped by the success of "Der Herr Senator," the fifth annual play. Over $400 was cleared on the public performance, and with this money a four year lease of the club rooms on Massachusetts avenue has been secured; the rooms have been furnished, and a small stage and settings completed...
...effective that for five innings Dartmouth got only one man as far as first base. His best point was his ability to put the batter on the defense by making the first pitch a strike. Kernan caught a steady game, and threw excellently, but had no success at the bat. Devens played for the first time this year, and batted with good judgment. Randall was tried at first base and Wendell went to left field. Randall covered first base adequately, but was a little awkward in receiving throws that drew him off the bag to any extent...

There were a great many errors and instances of poor judgment, which were all productive of runs for the opponents; and the batting was so scattered and unreliable that no team play in this respect was possible. The batting work was not so steady or effective as last year, and several of the positions were fielded weakly. Two places in the outfield still remain unsettled with no candidate...
Kernan batted excellently, getting three hits out of four times at bat, but fielded badly, having three costly passed balls. Daly was tried at second with only fair success. Wendell and Coolidge both made costly errors, and as a whole the infield work was disorganized. Rockwell was very weak at the bat, striking out three times, and Carr was almost as unsatisfactory. The batting of Clarkson, Stillman and Coolidge was the only good feature of Harvard's play...
