Pennsylvania has twice beaten Columbia, by the scores of 22 to 2 and 5 to 1. In the first game Layton, who pitched the first six innings, did not allow a single hit. In the second game Leary succeeded in keeping Columbia's six hits well scattered and had perfect control. In both games the fielding of the Pennsylvania team was sharp, and the men batted well at critical moments...
Stillman pitched a steady game and had almost perfect control. Only two Bowdoin men reached second base, and of the four scattered hits made by Bowdoin, two would have been cut off by faster fielding.

...truth of the life eternal; and third, Faith, a surrender to God's will and a devotion to his service. Man has an affinity to two things, to God and to the brute. It is this discord between two natures which we must strive to resolve into a perfect unity with God himself. We must give up the things of this earth and all self-seeking purposes, if we are to attain this unity. As Jesus has said, "He that loseth his life shall find it," and in this paradox is the solution of the problem. But the bare knowledge...
