...past, and who thoroughly understood the games. It is hard to prove a negative, but, so far at least, I have found no evidence of any such thing. I feel convinced that the committee, in its ardor, have accepted some false rumor for a fact. At all events they admit, I understand, that no such thing has recently occurred, and even supposing it may have taken place in the past, its own voluntary cure without a suspension of the games leaves the majority of your committee in the attitude of the investigator into the Tewksbury almshouse, who found...
Harvard's first game of the season was played Saturday against Dartmouth. The day was too windy to admit of careful field work. The Harvard nine was composed of Howland, c.; Bates, p.; Campbell, s. s.; Willard, 1b.; Gallivan, 2b.; Quackenboss, 3b.; Henshaw, r. f.; Mumford, c. f.; Knowlton, l. f. Bates pitched a strong game.

It is expected that the weather will admit of out-door practice in a fortnight...
...Physical Research, for the benefit of the Harvard University Boat Club. This lecture will not only interest those who are pursuing studies in Philosophy, but will undoubtedly be entertaining to others also, since the subject is one which has a fascination for almost every one-whether they will admit it or not. The object of the lecture is one which certainly must appeal to us all. We all must realize that the Boat Club needs help, and when we can give aid at the cost of such small sacrifice to ourselves it is plainly our duty-and should...
