...there will be two attempts to make new records in the short distance runs. Baker, '86, will try to equal or better 10s., the record made by E. J. Wendell in the 100 yards, and Wells, '86, will try to run 440 yards in less than Baker's record, 50 1-4s. Fiske, '86. will be given a start of 3 yards in the 100, and Wheeler, '86, 30 yards in the quarter. It will depend on the weather conditions as to whether the track at Beacon or Mystic Park is used. Those who wish to see the races...
...crews, was the cause of much controversy several years ago. Article XIX settles the question definitely. A flag supported by a metal rod is fixed in the stern of the shorter boat, and another on the longer boat, at a distance forward from the center of that boat, equal to one half the length of the shorter boat. The two crews are started even and timed at the finish by these flags. In case of a close finish the referee may reserve his decision, but not longer than the day of the race. In each successive year, the crews must...
...years been conceded that Mr. Jones is the one man fitted to give elocution a scientific form that it might be studied here by students to advantage. This is seen in the fact that Mr. Jones was appointed to succeed Messrs. Riddle, Ticknor, and Sargent with a salary equal to theirs' combined. Shortly after his appointment Mr. Jones' position was made permanent. In recognition of the fact that he had succeeded in making class work a success, (individual work only had before been possible) he was given a half-course in elective study. This induced many men who purposed entering...
...Santayana, in a review of Spinoza, states clearly the philosophy of the great pantheist of Cartesianism. The article while differing materially from ordinary undergraduate work, shows that real thought is among us, and that such thought can be clearly stated. But Mr. Santayana's sonnet, again, is not equal to his usual work. Many of the lines are strong, but the strength is hardly carried to the end. "A Study in Catullus," by Mr. H. G. Bruce, is probably, from an artistic point of view, the best piece of student literary work which has been published at Harvard for years...
...finish was 22 seconds. This is the world's amateur record for the distance, and is within 1-5 of a second of of the English professional record. Baker's running was superb through-out the whole distance, and the spectators will probably never again see an equal exhibition of speed. Although no watches were held on Rogers, all the timers agreed that he must have at least tied the previous record...
