...library petition is still at Bartlett's and has been signed by over three hundred men. The petition has been kept open to the students longer than was intended, because of the voluntary recess which many men took at Thanksgiving. In a matter of such vital interest to the whole college, no efforts ought to be spared on the part of each man to advance its success. During the few remaining days in which an opportunity will be afforded the students to sign the petition, we hope that every man who has not already signed will...

...said that there is no deliberate intention of circumventing the Co-op. In all the cases that have come to our notice, the men belonged to the society last year, but have not renewed their subscriptions. The year is now so far advanced that these men can no longer plead forgetfulness as an excuse. If they will stop and consider, they will see that their conduct, in the eyes of the college and the world at large, is remarkable, to say the least, and that the Co-op. will be justified in taking very stringent measures if the practice...

First, the action of the Harvard faculty in prohibiting the Harvard team from longer playing in the inter-collegiate association. Secondly, the gross reports which were published regarding the game played on the Polo Ground, Thanksgiving Day. Thirdly, the report of the Harvard committee, which was sent throughout the country; and, fourthly, the action of the Princeton faculty.
