...vitality of rhythm adaptable to a large chorus it would have been taken up with an enthusiasm which the old stand-bys will soon fail to command. Half-hearted singing of unfamiliar songs is even worse than half-hearted cheering and infinitely more depressing. Last year it seemed as though the committee in charge of the competition were determined to gain something besides experience from their efforts, and accordingly chose five contributions by the elimination process, retaining these five as there was so little to choose between them.

Hartford's curves and fast balls, which be varied excellently, were a complete puzzle to the Cornell batters, and they struck time and again without coming anywhere near the ball...
...Warren '82 visited the quarters today. R. F. Herrick '90 was also here. His new power boat, the "Tautog," arrived from Bristol, R. I., this afternoon, and will be kept here until after the race. R. S. Lovering '08 arrived this afternoon and will remain as a substitute, though his knee has not entirely recovered from a recent injury...
