...besides the courses offered by the college there are other sources from which our students of political proclivities may derive much benefit. The lectures under the auspices of the Finance Club afford invaluable instruction to all who hear them, and are as much a part of "instructive force" of the university as the lectures given in the different courses.

Williams, we hear, desires a place in the league; Trinity will come next, and before long Columbia will heave in sight to repeat her foot-ball and lacrosse record on the diamond. The position of Amherst and Dartmouth in the base-ball arena, and of Columbia on the foot-ball field, is quite...
