...special appeal made by the Senior Spread Committee. According to the rather contradictory wording of the notice, "during the past three or four years the dance has been a success in every way except in the percentage of Seniors who have attended it." To make it an almost essentially Senior affair is the aim of this year's committee, and to carry out this aim the co-operation of the whole class is needed. It was very apparent at recent spreads that although a goodly number of Seniors attended, there was no universal enthusiasm among the members of the graduating...
...first three innings Newberry pitched well and held the Freshman nine down to one score. In the first of the fourth, however, he entirely lost his control, and from that time was hit almost at will. Babson pitched well for the 1912 team, striking out nine men, and allowing only four hits and one base on balls in seven innings...
...ragged. At the finish of the first mile the Freshman crew took up the race and rowed to the bathing beach. Before reaching the Cottage Farm Bridge the University crew had a slight lead. Here the Freshmen lost a length through having the outside course, but this loss was almost made up by a spurt before reaching the bathing beach. The Freshmen showed the best from they have so far this season, and finished only half a length behind. The University crew covered the rest of the course alone...
...University baseball team will play Holy Cross this afternoon at 3.30 o'clock on Fitton Field, Worcester. The return game will be played at Cambridge on June 10. The game with Holy Cross in recent years have almost invariably been close and exciting. Last year the University team lost the game at Worcester, 2 to 3, but won in Cambridge, 4 to 3. Two years ago Harvard won both games. The first was a spectacular 10-inning game, with the score 1 to 0; the score of the second game was 2 to 1. Neither Briggs nor Harvey will...
...watching the men in outdoor competition with an opposing college. Since practice on Soldiers Field was begun, there has been a great improvement in the University material. Confronted early in the year with a rather gloomy outlook. Captain Rand and the coaches have developed a team comparatively strong in almost every event. Last week's performances in the interclass games were exceedingly creditable considering the weather conditions, and we expect the team today to add another well-earned victory to the record of the meets with Dartmouth...
