Winsor pitched well, and Nunn made some fine stops; Coolidge, however, carried off the fielding honors for Harvard by putting out three men and assisting six times, including two double plays. The Dartmouth Nine is an extremely strong organization, and only needs...

...programme at the second recital was as follows: Sonate in C minor, Mozart; Sonates, op. 10, No. 3, and op. 110, by Beethoven; Andante Spiniato, Nocturne in A sharp, and Waltz in A flat, by Chopin. It was strongly a representative programme, for Mozart's C Minor Sonate is one of his greatest, and the op. 110 belongs to the last period of Beethoven's creative activity, - the period of the Ninth Symphony and the Mass in D. The Chopin numbers were more pleasing to the popular taste...
