...must have a pitcher who can keep down an opponent's batting, and men who can bat for us. Our men will never learn to bat while they have no good pitching to bat against. The base-ball association should be allowed to engage a professional pitcher as trainer at once, when other colleges are doing so, and should not be obliged to go through another season similar to the last. If the nine is to be handicapped another year in this manner, it were better that Harvard withdrew from the college league...

...long as we have professional trainers in sparring, fencing and general athletics, we cannot see why we should not have professional trainers in base-ball playing. Playing with professionals is certainly not so injurious as playing with some of the teams we practiced with last year, although we confess that the general recruiting of the professional ranks from among college players that has taken place during the past few seasons is a severe blow to college athletics. The faculty committee of conference meets in a short time and we hope the subject of a professional trainer will be taken...

...diurnally-esteemed contemporary, the Yale News, congratulates itself and the college in having secured the services of a Yale man, with Yale ideas, as professional trainer. This use of the term "Yale ideas" implies what we have always thought, that a Yale man, with Yale ideas, was suit generous.

If there really is some magic charm in these Yale ideas, do tell us what it is, so that we too may labor...

...athletic interests are fortunate in securing a college man, Mr. Camp, as a coach and trainer for the football and baseball teams, and the track athletics for the ensuing year. Mr. Camp has long rendered invaluable assistance in coaching the eleven, and is equally competent in baseball; he has devoted the summer also to working up track athletics and will take Mr. Dole's place. As a college man, Mr. Camp has been and is thoroughly acquainted with all the college athletes, and is better able to manage these departments than any outside man could be. The influence which...

...track is now finished, and affords good facilities to all for training. Nothing now is wanting to make Harvard's field athletics successful but a trainer. The success of our team at the intercollegiate games last year has been used as an argument against the need of a trainer; but when we come to examine the state of the case we find that nearly all of the events were won by old athletes, who had had the advantage of several years' experience under a professional trainer. One half the team have graduated, and unless something is done to bring...
