...trifling subject of fresh air and comfort in the class room and at lectures, and while some of our large halls are poorly arranged for ventilation, it seems as if better arrangements could be made for the comfort of such a large audience as was present last night. This lack of fresh air deadens the sensibilities of the mind as well as of the body and small matter as it may seem it can and should be remedied...
...intercollegiate match this coming Christmas. A great deal of interest is being shown at the three other universities, Yale, Columbia, and Princeton, over the coming match, and they will send strong teams into the contest. It would be unfortunate for Harvard to be outdone and outplayed merely through a lack of interest.

Trafford, president of '93, called the meeting to order, and without elaboration explained explained the methods of voting and appointed as tellers F. W. Hallowell '93, J. D. Upton '93, M. Newell '94, B. G. Waters 94, and R. W. Emmons...
