...doing better each day. Harvard has usually been able to win this match, but through some miscalculation we lost at the last trial. We must win this time, and in order to do so every man who can break pigeons must try for the team. It will add to the interest in the foot-ball game if the Harvard Gun Club wins this match just before the game. At present the scores are very poor, and not any are worthy of a University team...

...capital and the latter ought to be increased. The amount subtracted from the dividend will be added to the capital. This proposal was adopted.

...This grouping has also led to a revision of, the courses in many departments, with the result of making them more systematic. Some courses which formerly took up subjects partially covered by other courses have now been recast so as to cover distinct ground. Others have been introduced to add a link in a series of consecutive courses, and others have been found wholly unnecessary.

...They deserve encouragement today; and may be stimulated to victory by the applause of a large crowd of supporters. Harvard men ought also to avail themselves of one of their rare opportunities to see a cricket game. The match today will be played on the American plan, which will add interest, and will make it possible for a man to see both sides bat without waiting for a whole side to be retired. A pleasant feature of the game will be that it will not demand attendance throughout the day in order to follow Harvard's fortures, but will allow...
