...others distinct. If, as it has been suggested, we invite the Union Boat Club to race with us, as formerly, for the cup, we shall have to make a greater effort to turn out good crews, in order to retain possession of the cup. One other item that will add to the comfort of those who row is that a passage-way is to be cut from the club-house into the University house, and thus members coming in from rowing can easily get to the bath-rooms without being obliged, as heretofore, to go around on the outside...
...spite of the many difficulties it has had to contend against, the Art Club has taken a new departure which promises to be very successful and to add much interest to its meetings. Yesterday evening a meeting was held, at which a collection of pottery and old china was exhibited, besides a number of valuable books on art, illustrated by fine engravings, the loan of Professor Norton. Periodical meetings of the same kind are to be regularly held. All those who take the Art Electives, or who even have a vague taste for objects of Art, would do well...
...MORROW our Foot-Ball Team player New Haven.

But cannot the next graduating class add their mite to this magnificent display without saying anything about it? Will not the vine last just as long if its roots are not watered with a dissertation upon the Whole Duty of Man and the Scholar in Politics...
COMMENCEMENT this year will present a more imposing appearance than ever before. One feature of the day is now to be established which will add much to the character of the exercises. The Faculty have decided to appear in gowns. This is a step in the right direction, and we hope their example will be followed next year by the graduating class. The dress-suit is rather inappropriate for a morning costume, and the gown - the distinctive dress of scholars - is a much more fitting uniform for occasions like our Commencement. But since dress-suits have been selected this year...
