...since 1877, and most of the Harvard games within the same period, and when I remember that, in that time, I have seen three games where, with fair umpiring, the score at least would have been different, it certainly does seem time for Princeton, in justice to herself, to demand some new and fair system of umpiring, so that there may be no danger of history repeating itself. I have only to add that this plan is heartily approved by a large number of New York alumni with whom I have conversed on the subject...
...relations between big and little shops demand study. Many societies have been formed whose members are pledged never to buy in large shops. The error here should be explained. The cause of longer hours in small shops the movement to buy only before six o'clock, these, too, await investigation. More than all, the problem of the surplus unskilled sewing women calls out for remedies. Facts are wanted to show that the idea, that cheap living reduces wages, is a fiction.

...length been finally settled that the Glee and Banjo Clubs are to give their concert in Chickering Hall, New York, on Saturday, the twenty-second of this month. As the demand for seats will undoubtedly be very great in New York, we want to urge the management of the concert to have some of the best seats for sale here in Cambridge, for the convenience of the New York men in college. This plan was tried successfully by the football management a year ago, and there is no reason to doubt that it would meet equal success if tried...
