...statements made in a letter entitled "Careless Examiners" have been found so entirely false that it is only just to the examiner in question to publicly correct them. The Freshman who complains of the loss of his Greek Grammar paper had two other conditions in Greek, instead of no other, and his book was never found at all, instead of being traced to the examiner's hands.

LAST Tuesday the Freshman Foot-Ball team went out to Quincy to play a match with the team of the Adams Academy. Crehore won the toss for '82, and took the wind, giving Adams the kick-off.

As the entire faculties of '82 seem to be concentrated in an effort to meet only "nice fellows," I thought the matter would interest them all; so I told my young friend that he might look for an answer in the next Crimson...
