...meeting of the Board of Overseers on Thursday, it was voted to concur with the vote of the president and fellows abolishing the chair of Ancient, Byzantine and Modern Greek. This was the professorship held by the late Prof. Sophocles, and was created for him in 1860.

...regard to inter-collegiate athletic regulations the Princeton faculty has voted that letters should be sent to the faculties of other colleges inquiring as to their action. If five of the colleges most nearly associated with Priceton's athletic interests concur, the resolutions will be adopted. A member of the faculty committee said that the object was to eliminate the professional standard from college athletics and to put the men of all colleges on an equal basis. Harvard, he said, would pass the resolutions any way, but Princeton would not concur on that account or on account of the concurrence...
