...above the average of college papers, and we congratulate it on the success of its new management. An article on the Yale Club, an institution corresponding to our Thayer Club, has the following: "This institution is now run on the hotel plan, and quite a varied bill of fare is furnished every day. Circumstances seem to favor the adoption of the restaurant plan, and that would doubtless be very convenient for most students, and a good thing for the club." We quote the above to encourage any movement tending to the adoption of a restaurant-boarding system at Harvard...
...readers will remember that the first game of the match between Harvard and Yale takes place at New Haven one week from to-morrow. About twenty men have agreed to take the half-fare tickets, should they be provided. We hope that every student who is able to do so will accompany our Nine to Yale. Hearty encouragement from a crowd of fellow-students will help our men far towards victory; besides which a good game may be expected, as both clubs are in excellent practice...

Taylor, were beyond praise in their admirable fitness and truth of sentiment, and the warmth of appreciation which greeted them was more than deserved. The Vice-President...
...Steward shall be an undergraduate. We suggest that a professional steward, giving his whole time to the business, would serve the interests of the Club much better than it is possible for any undergraduate, however able and zealous, to do. At Williams College the poor students obtain excellent fare at $2.50 per week, while here the fare is poor and insufficient at $4 per week. It may be said that prices are much lower one hundred and fifty miles back in the country than near a large city. This is true; but it must also be considered that a club...
