...however, had to cope with a remarkably strong Nine, flushed with their victory of 10 to 9 over Yale, and anxious to hang the Harvard scalp in the New Jersey wigwam. Our Nine, owing in part to their crippled condition, but principally to their traditional weak batting, was hardly equal to the occasion. The game was an exciting one, and the score, 3 to 1, was, we believe, the smallest ever made in an amateur match. On our side, Cutler's play in left field was remarkably fine; Kent, Hodges, and Annan were quick and accurate in their several positions...

...average undergraduate show anything, they show a character which is not so entirely under the control of religion as might be inferred from the articles we have referred to. Surely we cannot assign to ourselves an amount of religion - using the word in a rather comprehensive sense - equal to that of outside communities, without casting aspersions upon our fathers and mothers, upon our uncles and aunts.
