...Digestion before the Boylston Chemical Club in Boylston 9, last night. Dr. Pfeiffer described in his last lecture the various kinds of food-stuffs, and to some extent their course through the body. Last night he dealt with the Processes of Digestion and the Digestive Ferments. Dr. Pfeiffer began by dividing all chemical processes into five factors, as follows: The substance, the apparatus, the reagent, the nature of the reaction, and finally the nature of the products of reaction. These five factors are likewise present in all digestive processes. The substance is in this case the food-stuffs; the apparatus...
Last Friday afternoon about fifteen men began training in the Yale gymnasium, for the 'varsity crew. All the candidates took a short run and did light gymnasium work, and later, ten men rowed in the tank, coached by Captain Hartwell. S. B. Ives '93, 177 lbs., rowed stroke.

The nine then rested on its laureis until the summer of '64, when a match was played...
...sophomore crew began its regular work yesterday and quite a large number of men gave their names to Captain Loring as candidates. The outlook cannot be said to be particularly bright for some of the best of last year's freshman crew, - Bond, Blake, Williams, Saltonstall - are training with the 'varsity, although of course some of these will probably come back to their class crew before May. Waters will not row and Fay has left college. Strict training will begin today and the work will consist, as usual, of pulley-weights, dumb-bells, rowing with the weights, and a short...
