FOOTBALL RECEIPES. Rainy Saturdays Kept Minor Game Receipts Very Low. Manager Jamot Brown of the Uni- versity Football Association has about completed his financial report of the football season of 1898, which will soon be made public. A summary of the report shows that- the entire receipts from all games were $31,190.04, with expenditures of $16,648.49. This gives a balance of $14,541.55. The expendi- tures include training table, goods, guarantees and incidentals. In the season of 1897 the total re- ceipts were $40,038.19 and expenditures were $18,741.83, with a balance of $21,296.36. This puts the past season $6, 754.81 behind its predecessor in foot- ball revenues. The principal reason for the difference in receipts between the seasons, Mr. Brown believes, was the continual rainy Saturdays which kept the money received for the home games down to almost nothing. A saving in the expense of $2,093.34 over last year is shown in Mr. Brown’s figures. —_———_+04-—____— Basketball Schedule.

YALE ALUMNI wrrprrty ee Ne Charles G. Osgood Appointed. | The English Department of the Freshman class has been augmented recently by the appointment of Mr. Charles Grosvenor Osgood, Jr., ’94, as an inctricior.: wr. -Oseood. has -al- ready begun active work, having sec- tion B of the Class under his tutorage. Mr. Osgood was born in Wells- borough on May 4th, 1871, and after eraduation from the University, he acted as an instructor in Latin and Greek at the Susquehanna Collegiate Institute, Towanda, Pa. For the past two years Mr. Osgood has been pursuing studies in the Gradu- CHARLES 'G. OSGOOD, JR., ’94. ate Department at Yale along the lines of Literature. Much of his time during the past year has been consumed in the preparation of a monograph on “Classi- cal Mythology in Milton,” which will be published shortly. ‘The music used in the production of “The Knight of the Burning Pestle,’ by Beaumont and Fletcher, which was given by the Eng- lish Department last year, was com- posed by him. Mr. Osgood is a mem- ber of Phi Beta Kappa. ——— Spalding’s Athletic Goods. The following notice has been sent out in relation to A. G. Spalding & Bros. athletic goods: “How to stop price-cutting on standard articles has for years been a difficult problem to solve on the part of the manufacturer, and a still more serious one on the part of the retail dealer. The result of it all is that the latter has been forced to the wall by the large stores, which, owing to their facilities for buying, methods of selling and the unrestricted condi- tions upon which goods were sold to them, have demoralized prices entirely, all of which tends to degrade quality and defraud the user. To counteract the evil effects of such business methods, A. G. Spalding & Bros., who are the largest manufacturers of athletic goods in the world, have perfected a plan whereby they can protect the retail dealer, protect the consumer and main- tain quality. In the future this firm will sell their trade-marked goods direct to the retailer, at a fixed price to every- one, whether the goods are bought in large or small quantities, with the un- derstanding that every article must be sold at a price established bv A. G. Spalding & Bros. In other words, the Spaldings will fix the price at which they will sell to the retail dealer and also the price at which the latter will sell to the consumer. By this method the retailer will be able to make a legiti- mate profit on his stocx and the buying’ public will be enabled to get better goods at a lower price, because all in- termediate profits will be dispensed with and there will be no incentive to cheapen quality to meet the unfair com~ petition caused by malicious price-cut- ting dealers.” a Yale Sketches by Crosby. -A book of drawings entitled “Yale Sketches” by R.
