...whoever they are, giving the university football team a vast amount of unnecessary trouble. The building itself is all than can be desired, everything that a complete knowledge of the wants of an athletic team can propose has been put into it, and it is a model of its kind. When it was finished it was accepted, we understand, in the regular prescribed way by the corporation, but, strange to say, all authority over thecontrol of the building seems to have gone to the winds. It is impossible to find out who has charge. The eleven have just seen...
...sort of temporary substitute for a great library reading room the History department have obtained leave to use Harvard 3 in which to establish a working library for students of History. This kind of a library is very necessary; we are glad to find that something is to be done to enable a student to get even a little idea of the literature of the subject on which he is at work.

It is highly improper for a group of men to carry on a systematic canvass, to hold caucusses and make agreements for mutual benefit...
...SOUDAN."The Soudan" has attracted large audiences at the Boston Theatre for some time past. The play is of the sensational kind, being therefore dependent in a moderate degree on scenic effects. Most of the scenes, which were very varied, were distinctly better than one usually sees, and some of them were very effective. The sleeping encampment was quite impressive; and the "mob in Trafalgar Square" quite true to life...
