At this time when the sentiment of both colleges seems to be steadily growing in support of a dual league, a favorable answer to the Bicycle club's challenge would be another step toward attaining the desired end.

The old discount on coal, and on the laundry also, is gone. The work done by the latter is disgraceful...
...hoped there will be a large attendance at the entertainment, and that many who cannot attend will help the good cause by the purchase of tickets. It is needless to add that the entertainment is worthy for its own sake, aside from its philanthropic object. Tickets may be had at Sever's bookstore, Harvard square, and at the door.
