...other three main contributions, H. W. Foote '97, discusses "The Significance of the International Meet," and shows, in a truly sportsmanlike fashion, just what was meant and brought about by the contest between the Harvard-Yale athletes and those of Oxford and Cambridge. "The Madness of Robert Martin," by R. C. Bolling '00, is hardly one of the writer's best stories. The phrases are now and then a little too robust, sometimes too reminiscent of the interminable Kipling; and though one can understand Martin's rebellion against society, his reconciliation seems rather abrupt, rather arbitrary. Still, the story runs...
...throw too much work upon the muscles, and especially upon the heart, until they are strengthened by preliminary work; secondly, to watch the nutrition carefully; and thirdly, to avoid nervous fatigue by providing a certain variety of exercise, and by not confining the attention too closely to the approaching contest. Professor Hart continues his usual readable and suggestive comments on the University under the heading of "Advancing Responsibilities," and the Student Life is written this year by F. E.

In the opinion of most rowing experts Cornell will have no difficulty in securing the victory today.

For the rest of the game, 1900 was helpless at the bat and the contest was decidedly one-sided. '99 was kept from making more than one run in the fifth by the clever work of Edmunds and Foster who caught two men off bases, but there was no chance for the fielders in the last innings, the game resolving itself into a pitcher...
...Sophomores defeated the Freshmen yesterday afternoon on Holmes Field in a very exciting game, by a score of 9 to 5. As the contest between 1900 and 1901 was to be decided by a single game, this victory entitles 1900 to play '99 for the class championship...
