...give evidence of the inferior physical development of the latter class. The deficiency on the part of the scholars in our colleges is worthy of grave consideration.

...admit that there are some good touches among the wealth of the commonplace. "Phrases from Novels" (p. 200), the dernier cri of the Freshman's welcome home (p. 206), the limerick about the Freshman's quandary at Boston dances (p. 208), the bit about Harvard irreligion (p. 209), make one laugh from natural impulse, and not from college spirit, or friendship with their editors.

After a short preliminary practice for development of speed, the two team lined up for a short scrimmage. The first team was handicapped by the absence of Captain I. S. Broun and E. S. Allen, who were unable to be present through illness...
Professor A. B. Hart '80 has been granted leave of absence from the University by the Corporation until February 1, to enable him to make a study of some of the conditions of the South. He will go first to Galveston and Houston, Texas, and make first-hand investigations into the governments by commission there; and will then work eastward to Louisiana and though the strip of rural country running through southern Mississippi, Alabama, and eastern North Carolina, and South Caroline. His purpose is to see the rural South away from the railroads and other means of communication with...
