...evening. Thompson '93 and Batchelder '92 were on the winning Boston team. The latter did some very pretty running. The management of the meeting was well planned and carried out and the events passed off with little or no unnecessary delay. The raised corners proved a great help and doubtless had much to do with the good time that was made in many cases but there was some doubt expressed as to the correct measurement of the track, many believing that it was short...

...repeating the achievement of last year, when Harvard scored more points than any other athletic association; and in addition a Harvard man again established a new world's record. The number of new men who did well is especially encouraging, and the experience gained will be a great help for all new men. The work done at this meeting is the first valuable indication of what Harvard may expect from her track and field athletes in the intercollegiate athletics of the spring. The prospect in the runs, both sprints and distance, seems very good. From the large number...

...membership we have now some three hundred so-called "working men" of Cambridgeport and vicinity. These men, during the year of the existence of the Union, have come to have a high idea of the helpfulness and manliness of Harvard students, from personal contact here with a considerable number of them.

I wish I could adequately express how deeply the members of our Union appreciate the kindness...

...least ought to make a good 'varsity crew if they were considerably larger. They are a wirey set of little fellows that are full of interest in the work and are determined to win if possible. It surely seems possible. Now, much can be done by the class to help their crew along to victory. Indeed, without this support it will be impossible for the crew to go to New London. The manager reports that the subscriptions are small and few. There seems to be no possible reason why this should be so because the men are doing well...

These services undoubtedly do much good and singing is one of the principal attractions. The City Mission can look no where else for help, and I think it is a disgrace to the whole college, especially to the musical and religious societies that so little interest in them is shown. Any one who can sing at all can help - it is not necessary to be a Glee Club man. I trust that next Sunday enough men will get up the necessary interest and so far throw off the spirit of "Harvard indifference" as to make the service what it should...
