...fourth inning, Reynolds, Gibson and Wingate each made a slip up which was very costly. Shaw's bunt down the third base line was allowed to roll in hopes that it would cross the foul line, and with the bases full Bartholf hit Pendleton. This combination of misfortunes enabled Princeton to score three of the easiest runs that will probably ever come its way. In the first inning Princeton scored one run, when Laird singled, was sacrificed to second, and came home on White's single. The Tiger's last tally came in the ninth. Parker was walked, reached second...

...written exactingly in the ultra-modern German idiom. Rimsky-Korsakoff's symphony is not exactly music for amateurs. Yet the amateurs of the society played both pieces with the accuracy that was borne of ease with their music, and full understanding of it, with hardly a technical blunder or slip, with none that was so obvious as to vex and distract its hearers. Never before has "The Pierian" so learned and mastered its music. Its hearers heard the fruits of diligence and tireless leadership animated by ambition and devotion.

By this means it is hoped to have the books returned to the Library so that students may procure them for use during the day. We find, however, that a black list relates the names of 52 men who have failed to return the books even within half an hour after the required time. Now that the mid-year period is upon us, these reference books become...

...appeared as the greatest ground gainer at this point with a beautiful dodging run of 45 yards through the entire second team. Pierce carried the ball over from the 3-yard line. Following this score, the second team punted from behind the line to Callander who let the ball slip from his hands and it was recovered by the opposing ends. In spite of this loss, the substitutes took the ball on downs and Morrison repeated his open field work by scoring on a well-executed 32-yard...
