...making machines of as good quality as the English at less than half the cost. In this connection we wish to correct an error which appeared in our last issue. It was there stated that after arriving at Squantum the Boston club returned home by rail. We are glad to learn that the club completed the entire journey on their machines, thus proving that their endurance and energy are equal to their skill...
...read in the Greek electives. Greek 9 used to embrace all the Aristophanes that appeared in the elective pamphlet, with the exception of the play that was read in Greek 6, and this course was open only to those who had attained considerable proficiency in reading.

...will be entered by the Union to row with our four picked from the University second eight. The boat-club of the Young Men's Christian Association is unable, at its present stage of organization, to accept the challenge, but we understand that this rowing club will be glad to join the regatta if their plans are sufficiently advanced and the necessary arrangements made a few weeks before the race. An entry for the single-scull race has been made by the Newton Boat-Club, but this organization regrets that it cannot take part in the race...
