...freshmen are to be congratulated upon the success of the meeting Wednesday. The events as a rule were well filled and sharply contested. They have in Mr. Baker a phenomenal runner who will probably do much to bring credit upon his class in both the university and inter-collegiate games. Several other runners also showed up well, and with training will make hard men to beat. The jumping was very fair, although there is much room for improvement in this sport. It is to be hoped that all of the men who took part in this first meeting, as well...
...concerning the Harvard-Columbia dispute. To us, as lookers-on (perhaps not the best judges), the matter appears in a light very unfavorable to Harvard. As the parties seem totally unable to agree, even as to the facts in the case, the sooner the discussion ceases the better for inter-collegiate feeling...

Such a step would prove a more effectual argument to Yale than the courteous ones hitherto used...
...trust that the executive committee of the Base-Ball Association, to whom the matter of withdrawing from the inter-collegiate league was referred, will report adversely to such a step. In view of the proposed erection of a fence around Jarvis, which will largely increase the receipts from games played in Cambridge, and the action of the faculty in prohibiting for the future all games with professionals, which will materially shorten the time which it will be necessary for the nine to spend away from Cambridge, any action of the nature proposed would seem to be inadvisable. And even...
...began at the spirinting distances. Fredericks and George, the great English amateurs, are long distance runners who have been successful at the half-mile. A second reason for choosing this distance is that it is very desirable to develop fast half-mile runners with a view to winning the inter-collegiate cup next spring. It is very doubtful whether we have any one who can beat Goodwin at either the half or quarter mile, but with very fast men in both these races we should be able to prevent him from winning both. We have...
