EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON:- The announcement of ball games should be posted sooner than they are. Posters for the Trinity game were not out until about four o'clock Friday afternoon, and the consequence was that some men who did not remember the schedule supposed there was to be no game Saturday and for that reason made other engagements. Others, who were familiar with the schedule, supposed that as the game was not announced it had been declared off, and at least one person was put in a disagreeable position by inviting friends to the game and promising to send word...
Some time ago the CRIMSON made mention of the applications daily received by the Secretary of the University for men who are desirous of summer employment.

It has ceased to be merely a local organization in distinction to the other teams which form parts of inter-collegiate associations, and a decided innovation in this respect will occur when the cricket eleven meets the University of Pennsylvania on Holmes...
...CRIMSON has just received the May number of the Atlantic Monthly. The new issue is remarkable for not containing a single bit of verse. The articles continued from the former number are "The Aspern Papers," by Henry James; "Yone Santo," by E. H. House, and "The Despot of Broomsedge Cove," by Charles Egbert Craddock. Mr. Cook concludes here his papers on the marriage celebration with "Reform in the Celebration of Marriage...
