...petty wrangles about the umpire. The captains of class teams who were appointed to umpire did not show any zeal or interest whatever in the matter, and, when they could, sent substitutes to fill their places. The enthusiasm of the different teams cooled down considerably as the time wore away, and altogether the general verdict seemed to be one of indolent "laissez-faire." If the championship is to be decided, the captains of the three upper classes must get together at once and arrange a couple of dates before class-day. As the freshmen are too far behind to stand...

There has always been a large amount of grumbling on the part of junior classes because the date of their required English examination is usually fixed for the day but one before Class-Day. Such grumbling seems to us wholly justifiable. There is no apparent reason why the whole junior class should be compelled to remain in Cambridge a week or ten days after the examinations of the majority are over. Men are forced to spend a week of idleness here, which they might spend much more pleasantly or profitably elsewhere. This year the junior forensic examination...
