Harvard, though nominally out of foot-ball, has yet sufficient interest in the game to form class foot-ball teams and play for a "cup." This is rather startling. To the casual observer it would appear that Harvard, wearied of always coming out well down the list, had decided to take a year off, devote her time to the advancement of general interest in the game and then come in next year with a large number of fine players to choose from. - Yale Record...

...term is in progress, but those at the head of each corps meet and arrange the duels, and the members fight as they decide. This fighting takes place every Tuesday and Friday, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.; and, as a result, the students who have been fighting soon appear with their faces done up in cotton and carbolic acid. In these duels it is impossible for anyone to be killed, for the combatants wear about the neck and body thick leather pads, and thick glasses before the eyes, so that the only place where they...

The Harvard Monthly, the Art Club, the Ornithological Club, the Society of Amateur Photographers, the Shakspere Club, which it is supposed takes the place of last year's "Shakespeare" Club, the '88 Glee Club, the university and '88 chess Clubs, and the '86 Whist Club all appear as new organizations.

...club, the Holmes Club of the Law School, seems to have perished; at least it does not appear with the other clubs of its kind. The Theta Delta Chi has taken a policy exactly opposite to that of last year, for it announces only the members of the Society instead of only the officers. The societies for study and investigation in general, show marked progress by their increased list of membership. The Dining Association in particular, which may be regarded as an investigating society sui generis, has increased in numbers. The 740 of last year has become 753, the maximum...
