...game was played with six out, and the plays were often made over again, to practise the men. Little attention was paid to batting, but nearly all the time was spent in team play, and individual work. Notwithstanding that this was the first day, the all round play was pretty good. Frothingham played at second, a much livelier game than last year. Hallowell and Corbett fielded well, and for a new man, Whittemore's play was sharp and clean, and his throwing very good. At third, Cook needs much improvement on yesterday's playing, to make his work satisfactory. Cobb...
...Italian and English idea. The German word, geschickte or das geschehen expresses a somewhat different idea, that which has happened, and German writers lay more stress on facts. Indeed there may be said to be no literary history in Germany. We have regarded history as a literary art, and often literary men that can hardly be said to have been historical scholars have taught in the large universities of England.

...Harvard and Yale. The gain of Harvard over Yale is very strongly marked considering especially the acknowledged predominance of Yale graduates in New York. The figures which Mr. White has compiled show that Harvard's influence in New York is by no means losing ground as the public is often given to believe. We do not for an instant pretend to assert that more New York men come to Harvard than to Yale; figures directly contradict this. The New York men who are studying for a profession or are taking a scientific course find it more convenient...
