...management of the hall. Without any deterioration in the quality of the board, - indeed, with some improvement over the quality of the last few months of last spring, - the price per week has been kept within the limit set by the board of directors. Of course the larger number of members of the association, as well as the reduced cost of provisions, has had a considerable share in this result. The careful oversight exercised by the board of directors and officers of the hall has also no doubt contributed to account for this satisfactory showing. It is to be hoped...
...very inconvenient, to say the least, and detracts greatly from the success and pleasure of the occasion. No simpler solution of the difficulty has been found than the proposal to exclude the freshman class. Nevertheless, we believe the seniors would be very willing to endure the inconvenience of the larger crowd if, by admitting the freshman class in case of victory over Yale, a new incentive would be put before the class to win. The objection that was raised to the proposal to exclude '85 last year would be obviated by taking timely action on the question this fall...
...have said before, we have no doubt, and the possibility of its beneficial influence in the promotion of a better feeling and understanding among college students is, we think, equally apparent, But to be so effective in its influence it must be an association thoroughly representative of all our larger universities - not a small clique from one or two colleges.

...that at least 125 more men should, this week, signify their intention of subscribing. For a very small price ($2) facilities are afforded for the perusal of nearly all the leading papers of the country, as well as magazines and college papers. The expense this year will necessarily be larger than in former years, for the college authorities feel unable to pay for heating the room as heretofore. It is, therefore, earnestly requested by the committee that all who can will hand in their names immediately. If 125 names are not in the committee's hands by Saturday night...
...DENNISTON, Com.T. J. COOLIDGE, JR., Com.C. H. ATKINSON, Com.The reading room committee have obtained permission to use Lower Massachusetts for a reading room. They urge all members of the university to join the reading room association, for the larger the number of members the greater the number of papers that can be purchased. Moreover the running expenses will be greater than ever before, for the association will be obliged this year to pay for heating the hall. Subscription for the year $2, including key. Subscriptions will be received at 68 Thayer or 32 Matthews. It is hoped that all will...
