...Harvard team, with the one exception of Winslow, played a good fielding game. Cook picked the ball up beautifully. His two errors were due evidently to his ambitiousness to get the ball over to first quickly. Whittemore played his usual steady game and distinguished himself by his catch of Stephenson's liner in the first inning. Wiggin played a great game in centre; a prettier throw than that by which he caught Reddington at the plate has not been seen on Holmes field for some time. Highlands pitched a fine game but made one wretched throw in the third inning...

...become as unbalanced through over-practicalism as through over-idealism, and boast as we may of the triumphs of science in its application to commerce and the arts of life, it is still only the achievements of the imagination that stir the deeper enthusiasm of mankind. Watt and Stephenson are entitled to our highest respect, but Plato holds his own, and we feel that something greater and rarer went to the making of Hamlet than to the invention of the steamengine, or the turning of it into a draught horse. Men have always been willing to pay the highest prices...
