...contributed an article on "Gideon Welles's Diary," and Percy Mackaye '97 has called to our mind Professor Copeland's reading of "Bouillabaisse," by contributing a poem in memory of its author Thackeray, "The Bard of Bouillabaise," on his centenary. We might flatter ourselves further and take to our credit a story by Edwin Balmer, Ph.D., '03, and still further, an interview which Mr. Leupp has secured from Mr. L. A. Coolidge '83 on the trusts.

The matter was investigated for the Athletic Committee and referred by it to the Administrative Board for discipline. At the last meeting of that Board action was taken, and due punishment administered to the guilty parties...
...fact that Harvard has at last evolved an effective system of student government. The questions proposed and in a great part solved during the last five months show a height of interest and efficiency on the part of subordinate committees seldom seen among undergraduate activities.
