...tremendous increase in the past few years. It was plain that some plan had to be adopted to provide for this, as well as for the other sides of student life. It has been the problem of the president of the University and his co workers to find some way to meet the difficulty. One phase of the trials which have been made has shown plainly in the establishment, by faculty and students together, of the Foxcroft Club, and in the proposition to organize other eating clubs of something like the same nature, though possibly not exactly the same plan...

The management will leave nothing undone to make the remaining games of the highest interest...

The representatives of the two colleges were unable to find any common standing ground, and the meeting adjourned without any definite result...
