...very successful hare and hound runs this year, but they have all been slow ones. Now that we are to have two a week during this good running weather, why might we not have an occasional fast hunt? On some of the runs it has been very disagreeable, and even dangerous, for the fast runners to be obliged to wait continually for slow men to catch up. I think there will be a large attendance at a fast hunt if the Association will only organize...
...After seeing a great game like Saturdays-wild enthusiasm, frantic cheering, the great rush at the end, and all the other stirring incidents of the scene-it is most dampening to read the meagre and cold-blooded accounts of it in all the papers. I notice that the CRIMSON even reduces the first individual feat in the game, Boyden's run, to this: "Harvard's down; ball passed back to Boyden," etc. Won't you correct this and put in print that Boyden took the ball running from a long punt at the middle of the field and ran past...
...would seem to have been unavailing. I allude to the moral so often drawn from the "old, old story" of Town and Gown. According to a little squib which perpetually appears in that weekly publication, the University Calendar, the front seats in Appleton Chapel are always (?) reserved on Sunday evenings for students alone until 7.30, at which hour all vacant seats will be filled by the surplus Cambridge people.

...taste for rum, rapidly follows the downward course, and ends by killing his wife and himself, leaving a little child to face the world alone. No story could be more sad and pathetic.

Few can read such a story without being firmly convinced of the necessity of meeting the men of the lower class on their own ground, and making them realize the responsibilities of a home and the effects of that terrible curse, rum. Surely the cause of temperance...
...been much on Jarvis during the foot-ball practice knows what an unmitigated nuisance the "American youth"- or in other words-Cambridge muckers, make of themselves, by continually rushing in and out among the spectators, yelling and hooting and making themselves generally obnoxious to everybody. These atoms of brass even go so far as frequently to run across the foot-ball field, to the annoyance of the players and the disgust of the spectators. Now-as they well know-these embyro ruffains have no business whatever to cross the fence which bounds Jarvis on its four sides. The (college...
