This restriction seems to me very hard upon those '98 men who have been intending to take up the study of Philosophy next year. I know of many men who have purposely reserved Philosophy for their Senior year, under the impression that it would prove more attractive and advantageous after the completion of other courses in History, Government and Literature. Are such men, who must be surprised by this new regulation, to be disappointed in their hopes of studying Philosophy and Psychology, two of the most interesting and important subjects in the whole range of our electives?

...Junior nine won the class baseball championship yesterday afternoon by defeating the Sophomores 6 to 4. The game was most exciting all through and in point of good all-round playing was probably the best of the series. Both teams had to play hard for their runs, most of which were made by the bunching of hits at the proper time, and at no point in the game was the result at all certain.

In Harvard's half, Foster was hit by a pitched ball and Hayes brought him home with a timely three-base...
Comparatively few men in the University are especially interested in the game of lacrosse, and for this reason the Harvard Lacrosse Team has not attracted as much attention recently as it really deserves from its hard work. The team has done remarkably well this year, considering the inexperience of the men; for, although it has been defeated several times, it has played against the strongest teams in the country and has made by no means a poor showing. The Crescent team, with which the team plays this afternoon on Holmes Field, has just returned from a trip abroad...
