Members of the Freshman baseball squad who are in the line-up for the game with Cornell 1912 this afternoon are requested to call at the Athletic Office for special tickets of admission to Soldiers Field. No other men will be admitted to the field for any reason with-out regular tickets...
...strength on the home grounds. But the Harvard team today, is made up principally of players, who have had the advantage of playing at Princeton in past years, and who are eager to retaliate for the long list of defeats. If Hicks is in form, and there is every reason to expect that he will be, Harvard should have a decided advantage in the pitching department, as White has not shown himself to be particularly effective. Hicks has never pitched a full game against Princeton. Last year he pitched the last two innings of the Cambridge game, and two runs...
...last fall seems sure to be duplicated. There was considerable doubt expressed at the time of the club's formation as to whether there was room in the University for another dramatic organization, considering the number of plays annually presented by Harvard men.

But this year our hopes have been raised by the team's enviable record in the earlier part of the season, and we trust that the "hoodoo" will be broken today. The University team has been meeting and defeating teams which have had much more competition than it this spring, and has proven that Harvard has one of the best college nines in the country. A comparison of the scores of the two teams so far this...
