...Cogswell's muff; Wright had previously retired on first. Sawyer flied out to snigg, and Leeds's foul flied to Carl. In this inning Woodhead hit a hard liner to Ernst, who stopped its force, and Leeds very prettily caught it on the fly from his hands. In the seventh Tyng hit hard to Blogg, who caught it well. Tower followed with a base-hit, reached second on Carl's poor throw, and third on Thayer's base-hit. The ball was then in Woodhead's hands, who tossed it to pitcher; and Thayer attempted to reach second...
...neither side scored; and up to this point the game was remarkably well played, and the errors were few. In the sixth inning our Freshmen made four runs, and the Yale men made three. There were several very bad plays on both sides, over throws in particular. In the seventh inning Fessenden made a beautiful hit out to right field, and sent the ball far beyond the ropes. He brought two men home and reached third himself. At this point the Yale Captain interposed. He objected to Fessenden getting three bases on a ball that went outside the ropes...
...fusi, and the line is very jerky. Risit would have scanned as well, and suited the other tenses better. In line sixth, coronae cannot begin a hexameter, nor comam end one; moreover, cutting off a diphthong between the two short syllables of a dactyl is very unclassical. Of line seventh we can make nothing at all. The quantities run ____V ____V ____V ____VV ____, which no human power can get into a verse. But we strongly doubt if the translator knew that the em in falcem would go out before et, since line eight can only be scanned...
...organ-grinder within these classic precincts, in less cultured yards he is sure of an enthusiastic and appreciative audience who drink in the charms of music and monkey with open mouths. Put him in front of a bay-window, with a couple of babies looking out in the seventh heaven of ecstasy, and a nurse to take off his hat to, and to lavish his most winning smile upon, and it will be hard to find a more contented being than Signor Smitherini. He knows that he is inspiring two or three little souls with perfect bliss, and is himself...
...student can usually be summed up about as follows: In early life he decided to go to college; goes to the academy or high school to prepare; his one object in life is to get into college; he passes the entrance examinations, and judges that he is in the seventh heaven; four years seem such a long time that he never thinks of looking beyond; he gives himself up wholly to college life; he becomes careless and unmethodical; he has not the faintest idea of what business habits are; he is utterly unable to keep an account...
