...placed some very pretty blows on his face. The round ended with the advantage on Fillebrown's side. Both men appeared fresh for the second round. Whitelaw again rushed his opponent who avoided some heavy blows very neatly. In turn Fillebrown placed some effective hits. The round seemed about equal. In the third round Whitelaw again began rushing, but was severely handled, giving few blows in return. The bout was awarded to Fillebrown. Thayer, '88, withdrew. Coolidge was therefore given abye.

We wish the Athletic Association the highest success in the coming season's work. It is anticipated that one record at least...

Mr. Sidney Bartlett, the Father of the Massachusetts Bar, told me that the three-years' course at Harvard was equal to seven years' work in an office. Mr. Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes and Dr. Eliot, President of the university, spoke to the same effect. Dr. Eliot related with pardonable pride that at a recent dinner of old Harvard men a prominent young advocate had declared that, when he was a student, he had often...
