...Charles Eliot Norton of Harvard in the purpose above expressed, Mr. Farley B. Goddard, Ph.D., of Harvard, '81, who has written an admirable paper on 'Researches in the Cyrenaica,' conditionally accepts the position. Drs. Poole, Murray and Head, officials both of the Fund and of the British Museum, will afford every facility for a preliminary study at the museum, and Dr. Maspero, vice-president of the Fund for France, will do the same at the Louvre. A few months of such preparatory study will thus qualify the student to begin work with Naville in Egypt the coming year. One thousand...
...thing and another. At the last Princeton game, the seats behind third base, which have always been the stronghold of the students at large and the strongest centre of the cheering, was reserved for the holders of season tickets. The only sections open to ordinary mortals, who could afford neither reserved seats nor season tickets were two or three sections between the back stop and the hospital, where one had to face the delightfully fascinating glare of the sun, which threw a golden mist over the whole landscape, including the game...

A very little care would repair the damage already done, as well as keep the windows in their proper condition for the future.

It is unjust both to those whose kind thoughtfulness has given these memorials, as well as to the large body of students who meet daily in the Hall. The leads should be replaced and the panes reset without further delay...
...Peirce's for the men who intend to accompany the nine to New Haven next Saturday. Over sixty men have already signed, and the prospect at present is that the nine will be well represented in the game with Yale. We cannot but urge all men who can afford the expense of the trip to go, for the game is to be one of the critical ones of the season, and a strong enthusiastic support encourages a nine to its best work. Our nine certainly deserves all the support that can be given it. Besides this, the expense...
