...them, and they were badly out-played in base-running. The collision between Tower and Hodges in the last innings showed the need of more system in taking flys. Tower was obliged to give up playing, but has entirely recovered from his accident. It should be a matter of pride that our Nine did so well in their striking as to atone for their numerous faults and mishaps in the field; a result due chiefly to the splendid batting of Tyler, Kent, and Tyng.

The Syracuse University Herald suggests, in reply, that the Times is suffering from the jaundice and blighted hopes, and earnestly advises a protracted visit at Dryden Springs Place (which is equal to Yale or Harvard).
