BASEBALL SONGS.

Glee Club to Lead Rehearsal at Yard Concert Tonight.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Glee, Mandolin, and Banjo Clubs will give a Yard concert in front of Matthews, this evening at 7.30. The special purpose of this concert is to give everyone a chance to learn the songs which will be sung at the game with Pennsylvania on Saturday. The Glee Club will lead the singing of these songs until they are familiar. As it will be dark at the concert everyone is urged to learn them by heart before that time. Later more songs will be printed, and learned in the same way; so that there will be a good list of them by the time of the Yale games.

The program follows: Glee Club. Johnny Harvard. Clover Blossoms,  C. B. Hawley. Mandolin Club. San Toy,  Sidney Jones. Glee Club. Doan Ye Cry Ma Honey,  Noll. Kentucky Babe. Banjo Club. Mosquito Parade,  Whitney. Glee Club. In Picardie,  G. L. Osgood. Mulligan Musketeers. Glee and Mandolin Clubs. Creole Love Song. Banjo Club. Hot Corn,  Eno. Glee Club and College. Baseball Songs. Fair Harvard.

The following are the baseball songs which will be learned. The first is to the Hawaiian air "Ka-ua," which the Glee Club has been singing this winter. The cheers in the middle and at the end are shouted, not sung, and the bracketed lines adapt the lines to either Yale or Pennsylvania. The Pennsylvania words will be sung tonight.

HAWAIIAN SONG.

Johnny Harvard

Rub it in to { Pennsy, Eli,

Johnny Harvard

Knock the baseball sky high.

Line a home run to the fence.

Make them look like thirty cents.

Raise the Crimson { oe'r the Red and Blue high above the Blue.

Rah! Rah! Rah!

Harvard! Harvard! Harvard!

Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah!

Johnny Harvard,

Sail in and defeat them,

Johnny Harvard,

Now we're going to beat them.

Hit that ball an awful crack,

Drape { the Red and Blue New Haven town } in black,

Make those {Pennsylvania lads trembling Elis all } feel blue

Rah! Rah! Rah!

Harvard! Harvard! Harvard!

GLORY FOR THE CRIMSON.

Up with Harvard's banner to the place it held of yore,

In the loyal spirit that shall live for evermore!

The sun will set in Crimson as the sun has set before,

For this is Harvard's day.

CHORUS.--Glory, glory for the Crimson, etc.

Bat the ball so hard you run those fielders off their feet,

Score a dozen runs or so then start in and repeat,

And the band will play "Fair Harvard" to the tune of "Up the Street,"

For this is Harvard's day,

CHORUS.--Glory, glory for the Crimson, etc.
