Clark University will be opened next October, and although no catalogue or even prospectus has yet been issued, the authorities expect to make known their plans in the course of a few weeks. Only three members of the faculty, in addition to President G. S. Hall, have yet been chosen; these are Dr. H. H. Donaldson, Dr. S. C. Sanford, and Dr. W. R. Lombard, all assistant professors. President Hall has recently been abroad to secure the services of some eminent Germans, but did not meet with much success, owing to the unfavorable action of Bismarck. The university is intended...
...work of the team in the first inning of yesterday's game was simply abominable; no excuse can be given for most of the errors which were made. Almost every man on the team seemed half asleep, and before they became awake again the game was lost. Even as it was there might have been some hopes of retrieving the poor work of the first inning, if the batting had not been atrocious. When a record of only two clean hits is shown, there seems but little chance that Harvard will be able to rely on heavy batting...
...observance of Easter day has always been kept. At a time when the christian would not even observe the day of the birth of Christ, the day of His birth and resurrection into immortal life was sacred.

...last year's team for one reason or another, will not play this year; but there will be some good material to select from, and the prospect for a good nine is encouraging. M. Luce, who pitched in all the important games last year, has sprained his arm, and even if he could pitch the 'varsity would require his services. T. E. Guerin, change pitcher on his freshmnn nine, may play again this year, and A. H. Brooks is also a candidate for pitcher. He played at North East Harbor last summer, and seems to have good control...
...last four years Harvard has been slowly but surely going down in athletics. In the face of this, and in view of bad records, our almost clean score of defeats in the last three years, the mere fast that a mass meeting of Harvard students voted even to consider the question will put Harvard in an odious and contemiuous light. Very fortunately the committee appointed will not have power to decide the matter. It will justly be brought before a meeting of students who will then have considered the matter, who will not be taken by surprise, and who, unless...
