...active, energetic policeman could stop all this. It might be a hard fight at first, but in a few months the thing would be accomplished. We happen to know that at Princeton there is a man for this purpose, and that the mucker nuisance does not exist there. Such a man could also take charge of the police force at all games, and see that the crowds are kept out-which certainly has never been done yet. Successful thefts have been made through the windows of ground floor rooms, and it is a wonder there are not more; these would...
...most desirable one. In the first place, it proves a most excellent method to get the men out of doors for exercise, a result which is highly commendable by the faculty, if we may judge by their utterances of last winter of the athletic question. Moreover, it may happen that some men will be brought out who can be induced to practice with a view to filling vacancies on the regular teams, though from the playing that has been shown by the scrub nines thus far this season, this result may be fairly regarded as extremely problematical.

Mr. Reed closes his article by urging the formation of an Inter-collegiate Bicycle Association. This would be a capital plan, but we doubt if the interest taken in bicycling in the colleges is great enough. In a few years will be the time for such a movement...
...make, let him bring it to the faculty, and I will promise him a fair hearing. I am president of the college and have authority. If you wish to go to the trustees-it is the highest authority-that court is open to you. The public, as I happen to know, thinks the college to be in a poor way, and the faculty and students both to be bad. Something is essentially wrong. For myself, I say I have never been guilty of supporting a system of espionage. I say our business is to keep order. I said...
