...Exeter catalogue for 1888-89 has just been published. It contains a good deal of interesting matter, and shows that a liberal advance has been made at Exeter during the past year. But few changes have been made in the board of trustees and in the faculty during the past year. George S. Morrison, of Chicago, was elected last June into the board of trustees, and he is the only man residing in the West, who has received such a distinction.

An inter class series of games was arranged, and on November 30th the freshmen defeated the sophomores by a score of 12 to 8.
