...first page article, - not necessarily long, but pointed and interesting. It ought to be a point of pride to '89 men to see that this position is filled before the base-ball season, so that their class may receive its representation when it becomes necessary to praise or to blame...
This reminds us that we are often blamed for the slimness of our "Fact and Rumor" column, and the paucity of Harvard notes to be found therein.

The Co-operative Society is in this instance not at all to blame, and the publishers only are responsible for the non-delivery of the promised books. Examinations are near at hand, and we can only offer our sympathy to those students whom the carelessness of publishers has deprived of the means of preparation...
