...still in college. It gives a certain insight into the workings of the college which he would otherwise know little about, and also throws a man into contact with interesting people and varied aspects of college life. In some degree, too, the paper is, we feel, a help to the college and gives an earnest man a chance to make his influence felt. We hope that a number of men even if they may not have definitely made up their minds to try for the paper, will attend the meeting this evening to see what the work consists...
...watching the 'varsity game from the top of the seats. In this, as in almost every other freshman game this year, the class has given its nine absolutely no support. Nothing can be more discouraging or disastrous to a class team., than such utter lack of interest.

They are to give, we understand, quite a large number of concerts, and are to devote all the proceeds, above bare necessary expenses, to supporting their crew. Such little luxuries as a dinner we believe...
...Stone '93, proceeded to show that this charge was almost groundless and that it was brought up to help defeat Mr. Blaine in his presidential campaign. The speaker recounted Mr. Blaine's public history and his career in inactivity and showed with what great statemanship he had settled our international difficulties and established a system of reciprocity. As a scholar, his two chief works are the book entitled "Twenty Years in Congress," the recognized authority on the history of the United States from 1863 to 1884 and his controversy with Mr. Gladstone, which was a complete victory. The presidency needs...
