...best be very irregular, it has been omitted entirely. After the examinations, however, work will begin in earnest, and an effort to develop some good bowlers, in which the team is at present extremely weak, will be made. It is doubtful also, whether H. G. Gray, the only good wicket-keeper in college, will be able to play this year, on account of his Law School work; his place also will have to be filled...
