...University Magazine, the representative of the University of Pennsylvania, has printed an editorial trying to sustain the action of their boat club in issuing the general challenge which recently has been so generally condemned. It takes the HERALD-CRIMSON particularly to task and advises us to read the editorials of two Philadelphia papers, in articles which have supported them, we believe, as a local institution, without giving any sound reasons for so doing. The Philadelphia Evening News says of the Pennsylvanians; "They have met and defeated all the other prominent oarsmen." However this may be with regard to four oared...
...came from beyond the Father of Waters to study at Roanoke College. And this year an Indian who also came from beyond the Mississippi goes forth from the college "not in the war paint of the savage warrior, but clad in the armor of the Prince of Peace, a herald of the gospel of love."

Harvard has held the inter-collegiate cup for four consecutive years, and one more victory by us this spring will make it ours. But since some of our best men graduated in '83, and, moreover, the material...
...EDITORS HERALD-CRIMSON. The urgent need for better dormitory accommodations must be met in some way in the near future. As soon as the college can secure available funds a new dormitory will undoubtedly be erected, but meanwhile it has suggested itself to the minds of many that old Massachusetts could be refitted at comparatively small expense in such a way as to provide pleasant quarters to a great number of men. It is but a few years since the building was altered to its present condition owing to doubts as to the strength of its walls...
