Description | "the Hill" appears to refer to College Hill in Lewisburg, where Bucknell University (then Lewisburg University) sits. The "Olympian" club of the university is mentioned in other accounts. Cf. Lewisburg Chronicle, Oct. 14, 1870. Baseball is said to have reached Bucknell in the early 1860s. See https://www.departments.bucknell.edu/edu/bu_history_old/photo_history/1865/1865_UnivBuilding.html Games among the college nines (e.e., class of 71 vs. class of 73) are also mentioned. |
