...college press. The Advocate, in its last number, felt the need of some extra accommodations in view of the large classes of late years, and we join with it most heartily in urging such an outlay on the part of the college. The present rumor should only serve to hasten some official action in the same line and to deliver future class-men from the tyranny of boarding houses and outside establishments.

The Faculty should hasten to supply the place of Professor Baxter by some one who will keep alive that interest, as the work in this department is too much for any one man to do alone. We would suggest that Sanders Theatre be used for a recitation-room in this subject during the year, as well as for the rehearsals of the competitors for the Boylston prizes. This would necessitate keeping it heated during the winter...
