Stillman pitched a steady game, and with perfect support would have scored a shut-out. He had good control throughout, and was so effective that for five innings Dartmouth got only one man as far as first base. His best point was his ability to put the batter on the defense by making the first pitch a strike. Kernan caught a steady game, and threw excellently, but had no success at the bat. Devens played for the first time this year, and batted with good judgment. Randall was tried at first base and Wendell went to left field. Randall covered...
...Symphony Concert last night was perhaps the best concert that has been given in Cambridge this season. The soloist, Madame Schumann-Heink, was in perfect voice, and received many recalls. Her first number, the Aria from Mozart's "Titus," showed the wonderful range of her voice, and its superb dramatic power. But the richness and tenderness of her voice appeared best in Schubert's song, "Die Allmacht," her second number...
...attack upon the elective system in our school. Professor Munsterberg compares the American and German systems of education, in search of a reason for the development of the average German student three years ahead of the average American. By entertaining references to his own school days, he shows a perfect knowledge of German schools, and by his comparisons, almost as complete an acquaintance with American conditions.

This is probably largely due to the fact that comparatively few students wear rubbers or overshoes, and that it is impossible without such protection to walk in several inches of snow and keep the feet dry. Wet feet are probably more prolific of the above diseases than...
This year the conditions were completely changed, and Yale was outplayed in every department of the game by perfect team work. Her determined defense could not hold Harvard's tackleback; and on the offense, Yale could not break down the Harvard line. Harvard ran up the largest score that she has ever made against a Yale football team. The teams were made up as follows: HARVARD. YALE. Campbell, l.e. r.e., Swan. Bladgen, l.t. r.t., Hogan. Lee, l.g. r.g., Hamlin, Johnson. Greene, c. c., Holt. Barnard, r.g. l.g., Olcott. Cutts, r.t. l.t., Goss. Bowditch, r.e. l.e., Gould, Rafferty. Marshall...
