...thought the deficiency can be made up by next fall. The building will be three stories in height, with a high studded basement. Particular attention is to be paid to the sanitary arrangement, the idea being to have the building the most perfect of its kind in America.

With good weather the bicycle meet this afternoon should be a great success and of the utmost interest to all men in college. The Bicycle club has gone to much trouble to arrange this meeting, the first of the kind in the history of our college athletics, and the field of entries is large.

This address was a model of its kind, the latter half of it being especially admirable, Seldom is an address heard in which the thought is so compact, and so clearly and forcibly expressed. In fifteen minutes Mr. Winsor covered the ground which a great many orators would have spent two hours in travering, and he left a clearly defined impression of what the character of Washington has meant to him upon the minds...
