...hits. The best fielding for the seniors was done by Coolidge, Allen and Bisbee; Litchfield also made some pretty one-hand stops. For Ninety Young and McLeod did the best work in the field. Slade and Vila both played a steady game on first. Mr. Palmer, umpired very fairly, though both sides grumbled somewhat at his decisions which, however, is to be expected in all games. The score...
...projected race with Harvard College. He complains that the College boat clubs shows a disinclination to give financial support, and suggests the raising of a subscription in the university. The letter goes on to say; "It would be a great opportunity for drawing the two universities closer together, even though it is only through a boat club. I am sure nothing but good could result to us from having a more intimate connection with the university which represents all that is best in American culture. I am told that they have challenged our two universities so often that they...
...doings since their recent defeat. Yesterday morning a communication appeared in our columns which bewailed the reckless expenditures by the base-ball management of the funds subscribed by the freshman class for the support of its team.

Young played a brilliant game at second, though but one catch...
...reason why the members or any member of the nine itself should be run drown, simply because they did not succeed in defeating their opponents. I suppose it is natural for a nine to be condemned because it has suffered reverses; it is an almost universal, though most unfair, custom. But I see no reason why any particular man should be blamed because he failed to bring victory from almost sure defeat. The freshmen played their best, but were out fielded and out-batted. But inasmuch as they did their best to win from Yale, they should receive the credit...
