Next week the lacrosse team propose to make quite an extended trip, playing with the Druids of Baltimore, with the University of New York, (champlonship game) and contending for the Oelrich Cup in New York. To meet the expenses of this trip, the team is obliged to rely entirely upon subscriptions, and we hope that the college will liberally respond and give a strong financial support to the organization which will undoubtedly bring to Cambridge the first championship of the season. The management has labored under a great disadvantage in being obliged to play the games this spring...
PRINCETON TRIP.- The nine will leave for Princeton by the Fall River Line on Thursday; the train leaves the Old Colony Sation at 6 P. M. The fare from Boston to Princeton is $4.51; the hotel at Princeton has reduced its rates to $2.50 per day. It can be safely estimated that the whole expense of the trip will not exceed $20. A book has been placed at Leavitt and Peirce's for those who wish to accompany the nine on this trip...

Most of the undergraduates can remember the wild enthusiasm which greeted the return of the 'varsity nine last year after its victorious trip to New Haven and Amherst. Few will ever forget the ovation the nine received as it came down by the yard in the midst of a blaze of rockets and red fire, saluted by the wild "rah, rah" of a thousand students, serenaded by the weird strains of the Brass Band, which played, replayed, and then played over again the only air it had attempted to master,- "Yale men say." Nor will the saturnalia that followed...
...nine came back from its last year's trip with a much less glorious record than it gained for us this year. Last spring we beat Yale by a score of 8 to 7, and Amherst to the tune of 13 to 10. This year we can point to a score of 12 to 4 made against the Blue, and 15 to 5 scored in the match with Amherst. Truly, our nine has brought honors to the college, and the honors it has received from us are hard earned and well deserved. With our present record we need feel...
