But one game now remains to be played to decide the amateur base-ball championship of the college. Several nines entered the association in the spring burning with the desire to carry off the cups as emblems of their prowess upon the diamond. Of these, two have reached all but the summit of their ambition by overcoming everything which has thus far opposed them. Had not an unfortunate accident marred the last game, the question of supremacy would long ago have been determined.
There is no doubt that these games have been thoroughly enjoyed, both by the participants and by the spectators. Although the number of spectators has not been so large as to tax the capacity of Jarvis to its utmost, still a high pitch of excitement and enthusiasm has often been reached by the supporters of the rival clubs when the score was at all close. An opportunity has also been furnished, for those who enjoy a friendly game of base-ball, to have a quiet afternoon's fun without the arduous work of continual practice and training. We hope that the deciding game between the "Peachblows" and the CRIMSONS may soon be played, so as to end the feverish excitement which now exists in college with regard to the result of that highly important match.
