...final bout of the Light Weight Sparring was fought by Spalding, '82, and Butler, '83. The first round was very exciting. Spalding sparred pluckily, and showed himself to be a master of the art of dodging, while his counters were frequent and forcible. When time was called for the second round both men appeared fresh and little troubled by their previous bouts. In this round Spalding got in some good work, and by rapid and forcible hitting succeeded in confusing Butler to such an extent that the latter hardly knew where he was striking. In the third round Butler seemed...

It was won by Crane in 7 minutes 10 seconds, to whom the prize for Middle-weight Wrestling was awarded...
...April examination in Freshman Latin this year will be called a two-hour examination, and will not be simply the usual "pass" examination. The instructors announce that the marks obtained will count in the annual scale, - not so much, however, as the Christmas or final marks. This change has been determined upon in consequence of a growing dissatisfaction with the present system of freshman spring examinations among both students and instructors. If an examination be held at all, and if the marking system must be kept in use, it would seem no more than just that credit be allowed...
