...attention has been called to certain editorials in a sheet "published by the students of Phillips Academy, Andover." The paper was not sent to us for some reason, although it is on our regular exchange list, and so we have not had an opportunity to remark upon certain statements which it contains. It is difficult to reply to conceited schoolboys smarting under the sting of a seyere defeat, and we should never think of noticing them at all, did not such an attack as has been made call for the severest censure. The Andover base-ball nine is famous...
Yesterday afternoon was a beautiful time for rolling up high figures on a score sheet, and the few members of the club who were forturate enough to get out to Watertown improved the chance, as the totals below show...
...heartily tired of replying to the puerile attacks the Yale Courant has seen fit to make upon us in its endeavor to prove certain "facts" that we have already commented on in regard to the freshman game.

...contemporary of ours, the Notre Dame Scholastic, has been offering us some advice. "Say, boys," exclaims the conversational exchange editor of this sheet, hadn't you better revise your list of the 'Forty Immortals ?' Give a place to Bishop Spaulding and J. Gilmary Shea !" It is with a good deal of hesitation that we reply to this suggestion, for we must admit that until now we never knew that any such literary light was shining in the west as J. Gilmary Shea. And while we have no doubt that both Bishop Spaulding and J. Gilmary Shea are authors worthy...
