...third Yale-Harvard Freshman game will be played to-morrow (Class Day) at Springfield...
...first shooting match of the Harvard Rifle Club took place on Saturday. The first prize was taken by R. Tallant, '77; the second prize by J. R. Reed, of the Law School; the third by R. A. Bullock, also of the Law School. The prizes were a silver pitcher, a silver goblet, and a silver ash-tray...

Thatcher caught, and Tyng's play at third was perfection. In fact, all the members of the Nine did well. For Princeton, where all played so well, it is hard to make a distinction. Although they seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied with some of the Umpire's decisions, they can hardly suppose that his mistakes were due to anything...
