...hope of keeping last year's infield nearly intact has been upset by the withdrawal of H. McCall '09 from College. McCall returned after the mid-years and practiced for a while with the team. He was offered a good position, however, and did not feel able to decline it, especially as he had completed the required work for his degree. For his place at second base and for the vacancy at third there are a number of good candidates, and the race for these two positions promises to be a keen...

...friends in the neighborhood to come at once. They appear one by one, pretending to be the injured husbands of the women who have sent the flowers. In the burlesque scene which follows the joke is turned on Narciso, but the amicable relations of the five friends are not upset by the fun, and as the curtain falls they drink to each others' health in a hearty toast...

In most ways it would be hard to produce a better team than the one which lined up against Yale this year. The coach on the field will be selected as in previous years and will have nearly the same authority.
