...recent petition for the Parkway. If the bill passes, the site on Massachusetts avenue, directly opposite Beck Hall, where the College Inn now stands, will be a very desirable locality for the erection of the hotel; and the Wesselhoeft grounds on Harvard street, where it was proposed to build, will be given up in favor of it. No definite steps will be taken, however, toward building on either site until the petition has been determined. It has been decided to organize a stock company, which shall have sole power over the erection and control of the building. This company will...

The plans have been worked up by Professor L. J. Johnson and Mr. McKim, the primary idea being...
...problem in developing next year's football team will be to build up a new line from almost untried material. Of the men who played this year, in the Pennsylvania and Yale games, the team will lost by graduation, D. C. Campbell, end and captain, C. Blagden and R. Lawrence, tackles, C. S. Sargent and E. H. Greene, centres, and A. W. Ristine, halfback. W. G. Lee will probably not play another year, and O. F. Cutts, this year's right tackle, will be barred by the four year eligibility rule...
