...buildings should be remembered as the best of their class. His views of Newport are interesting, showing the principal houses of this summer resort, and views on the beach. His picture, entitled "What Goes to Make Life Worth Living," an instantaneous one of a pug dog, occasioned much favorable comment. Mr. Storrow has devoted much time to the athletic teams, and his work is thus of more than ordinary interest to us. A very striking picture of his exhibit is that of a Maine trapper in the woods. Mr. Bancroft has some choice interiors and landscapes. His artistic taste would...
...only comment that the CRIMSON can make is that the Yale News is very modest not to claim first place in the hurdles for Yale. With Suddington and Berger as her representatives it would seem as if there could be no doubt about the winner. Although Mr. Stevens of Columbia won first place in New York last year with a vault of 10 feet 3-4 inches, he did not do well in the games this winter.

We close the discussion here in order that our correspondents may not come to blows...
...noise and confusion at any meeting heretofore. Although there was fully as much interest in the tug-of-war as usual, yet the preparations for the event were made quietly and there was no disturbance during the long and exciting five minutes of the "pull" itself. Very little unfavorable comment on any part of the meeting was heard; the only point of consequence which we would criticise is the meagre and somewhat bashful way in which the results of each event were announced - a fact which was so noticeable at the last M. I. T. athletic meeting. Much praise...
