...have been using it for about a week, during which time, short as it has been, there has been a marked improvement in their practice. While it is of course too soon to make any definite predictions, Princeton's nine for the present season will at least not prove inferior to many that have preceded it. As far as can be predicted now the personnel of the nine will be about as follows: Mercur and King, pitchers, while it is doubtful who will catch; Ames, Brownlee, Conner and Young all being prominently mentioned. Dana, '91, will probably cover first, though...

...training for the Oxford crew two eights have at last been selected, and nothing remains but to choose from them the eight men who shall represent Oxford in the Oxford-Cambridge race. Great doubt is felt at Oxford as regards the strength of the crew. The material is inferior to that of former years, and the average weight of the men is but 160 lbs.

A course of this kind would tend to be a sort of stepping-stone for those who intend to make journalism their profession, from the inferior to the superior grades of newspaper work. Mr. Pulitzer, of the New York World, is a strong advocate of the formation of a college chair of journalism, believing that by this means a stronger inducement will be offered to the undergraduates to adapt themselves more thoroughly to this occupation...

...power. It is natural for the management of the freshman crew to look with indulgence on the faults of friends, and to regard as unpardonable errors the faults of all others. This sort of thing must stop. The best man must be seated in the crew, no matter how inferior he may be to some others in the scales of sociability. It is not a matter of sentiment; the management is elected to further the interests of the college and secondarily the class, and it would be well for them to realize the extent of this responsibility. It is Yale...
