...after whitewashing our nine the Live Oaks scored five unearned runs on errors of Leeds, Thatcher, and Tyng. The next two innings added nothing to our score and one to that of our opponents. In the eighth it looked as if we might win. Leeds and Wright led off with base hits, Dow followed with a slow grounder towards third, which the pitcher threw over the first-base man's head, letting in Leeds and Wright and sending Dow to third. Ernst then struck a grounder to the short-stop, who threw it to first in time...
...error, and that a very excusable one. Tyng made three bad errors, and Leeds and Sawyer two each. In the eighth inning Leeds atoned in some measure for his errors in the first part of the game, by making a wonderful running catch of a low fly. Tower led the batting.

Leeds again led off, getting his first by an error of short-stop, and getting home by a base-hit of Dow's. This inning ended the run-getting...
...promiscuous contests at Saratoga, the balky, unmanageable Rowing Association, will not have been wholly useless, if because of the dissatisfaction they have caused, we are led to adopt, permanently, the English method of a four-mile race in an eight-oared boat steered by a coxswain. It looks now as if our boating men would, after this year, never engage in any other kind of a contest. This state of affairs necessarily causes a revolution in the training of our University crew. The revolution has already begun, and great care should be taken at the outset to establish a high...
...each other down; cheered for pretty much everything that the Chief Marshal could think of; and finally separated with feelings of triumph or of rage, as they carried away trophies or bruises. Among the participants in this annual rush, the Freshmen have always been prominent. Their youthful enthusiasm has led them to run about, and to fight, and to cheer with an ardor which left the other classes far behind. And if the Freshmen are excluded this year the exercises will lose half their point and half their spirit. It would seem, then, very undesirable to exclude them...
