...yesterday's game between the second eleven and Technology, and also at a game a year ago between the first eleven and Technology, both played on the Union Grounds. In last year's game, Mr. Holden tripped in a hole and sprained his ankle, not getting into good trim again all the season. Yesterday, Mr. Nichols, a most promising player, was slung into the home plate of the diamond, a great block of marble, and badly hurt. Not only that, there was every chance offered the men of being severely hurt; and it was only that Providence which watches over...
...daily work includes batting practice in the old gym, and the usual course of exercise with chest weights, parallel and horizontal bars and running. Four batteries are also kept at regular work, giving the rest of the men good opportunities to bat as well as to keep themselves in trim. The work has thus far been steady, systematic and thorough, and well entered into by the candidates. The men in training are: '87, Alvord, c., Keating, p., Haskell, p.; '88, Davidson, 1b., Judson, 2b., Stearns, c., 2b., Oldham, c., l. f., Phillips, s. s., p., McLennan, 3b.; '89, Turner...

A second displayed a picture of Austin Hall. A third had cartoons of a gory scalp, labeled, "The First Fee," a Puritan demolishing an Indian, thereby illustrating the "Ancient Action...
Sears, the amateur champion of the world, defeated Pettitt, the professional champion of the world, at Longwood yesterday afternoon, by a score of 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 7-5. The afternoon was perfect, although cool, and both men seemed to be in good trim. The exhibition was fully up to the high expectations of the spectators. Play after play of wonderful dexterity followed in quick succession, drawing out rounds of applause. The playing was not so close as most of these championship games have been, the score in the vantage set at the last not running higher than...
...were unable to make a public appearance until the latter part of May. This year, however, practice was begun early, and the club has been fortunate in having a number of members who are on the university club. Under these circumstances, they should be by this time in good trim for singing. The college expects to hear from them soon after the recess, and the college must not be disappointed. There are plenty of poverty stricken organizations which would gladly accept any surplus earnings that the Freshman Glee Club may be able in the future to donate...
