...Field for this season; in fact, we may consider ourselves fortunate if we are allowed to use it at all next autumn. Holmes Field next suggested itself; but the possibility of harming it for base-ball prevented its use. Beacon Park is always open, and the manager has kindly put it at the disposal of all who wish to train; yet its distance from the college was discouraging. At last, a happy thought struck some one, to measure off the path around the Soldiers' Monument. It was done, and a very good track of one hundred yards, quarter-mile, half...
