In accordance with the usual custom, the T. H. H. baseball team played its opening games outside of the city. The initial contest against Yonkers' High School April 7 gave the team a chance to show it's mettle and show it's mettle it certainly did. It was a contest against an umpire as well as against a team, and the score of 7-6 against us fails to indicate our superiority. Hampered by unfair decisions, our boys went in to win in spite of the referee. The first inning was productive of no results on either side but the second found a run squeezed in for Yonkers and the third saw Yonkers score two more. Rallying in the fourth our boys easily tied the score and were only prevented from tallying additionally by the umpire's rank decisions. In the sixth session Yonkers tallied again and in the seventh (abetted by the umpire) three more crossed the plate. In the last two innings our boys made brave efforts (principally against umpire) but only managed to bring in three men, making the final score 7-6 in favor of Yonkers. Newton pitched a strong game while Dudensing last year's hurdler, distinguished himself in left field. The sacks were covered in snappy fashion by three of last year's men- Risley, Adams and Fleck. "Bunny" Rhoades showed great ability at the receiving end. Our second game was played at Cornwall last Saturday against the New York Military Academy. The teams were very evenly matched and a splendid struggle ensued in which the lead was now on one side and now on the other. Then the unlucky "eighth" came along. With the bases full and the score 7-6 Newton walked three men, Fleck made two costly errors and "Receiver" Rhoades missed a wild pitch, thus affording the soldier boys six additional tallies after T. H. H. had squeezed in a run in the last inning, the final score was seen to be 13-7. However, the team played a very strong game and, continuing at the present rate, should have no trouble with the other high schools. For some unknown reason, the students of the C Class are very poorly represented in the A. A. This week the Mass Meeting Committee will arrange for a C Class rally, which we hope, will arouse some enthusiasm among our "Freshies.” "Slow but sure" seems to be our motto. Our A. A. membership has increased from 300 to 550 in two weeks. Our rallies seem to produce results. Our Lacrosse Team was to have played Clinton on April 3, but for some unknown reason the game was forfeited to us. Who ever thought Clinton would crawl!

AY 7 will be Alma Mater's "red letter" day with the splendid program that is being prepared for this year's City College Day, it is announced that, on the invitation of President Finley, General Webb has consented to speak. This will be the occasion of our dear old President's first visit to the College's new home, for the erection of which he was so largely responsible. The chief features of the tentative programme, as it is being considered by the City College Day Committee, of which Benjamin Friedland, '09, is Chairman, are as follows. College recitations will be suspended at 2 P. M. on May 7. The rest of the afternoon and evening is to be devoted to a baseball game between the Faculty and the Seniors, a tug-of-war between the Sophomores and Freshmen, and perhaps an Alumni-Varsity lacrosse game. Exercises will also be held in the Great Hall, where General Webb is to speak. There are to be other speeches by President Steps of the Student Council, by the Chairman of the Committee and by the redcubtable "Tommy." More definite information will be published later on. |
