...national reputation, it may be agreeable to hear that, in the recent great University race in England, Mr. J. E. Peabody, an American, was in the winning crew. Had Mr. Peabody followed out his original intention of coming to Harvard, he would have been a most valuable member of our boating community. But fate decreed otherwise, and he went to our Mother University in England, where he has gained considerable reputation as a boating man, and is very favorably spoken of by the papers.

...annual Convention of American colleges was held at the Bay State House, Worcester, last Wednesday. There was a large attendance, and among the delegates were many who have already won laurels at the oar. The meeting was called to order at 11.30. Mr. E. H.

In the first place, the editors refuse to permit a letter from an anonymous correspondent; in the second place, they do not like the idea of having a correspondent; in the third place, they say that not even a knowledge of his name would justify them...
...neglect by those having the highest authority in the matter, we will simply state the fact that we have now been members of the Club nearly three years, and that during this time not a single member of the Faculty has entered the place where the constitutions, the manners, and, in some degree, the characters of one half the young men intrusted to their care were being formed...
