The series of class games for the base-ball championship of the college can be said to have been only moderately successful. It is true that one or two excellent games resulted and some fine playing was seen. But the freshmen did not come forward as had been hoped, and, owing to several causes, the games did not arouse as much general interest as could have been wished. It may be doubted whether the fall is the best season for a contest of this sort. The athletic interest of the college is then centred in other things, and, moreover, the weather is not usually so favorable to good play then as in the spring. If a second series of class games could be arranged for the earlier part of the spring season, with the purpose of bringing out candidates for the 'Varsity and a consolidated nine, as well as for the freshman nine, better results might be looked for.
