...social intercourse among a large body of educated and highly trained young men cannot be overestimated." Is this much in advance of "the salutation, the bow, the courtesy," etc., of Neophogen? These improprieties in our Catalogue - embracing the commonplace, the bombastic, and some passages of a catch-penny character - must have come down to us from the time when Harvard was that much-talked of High School; now that she is a University, they should be carefully weeded...
CORNELL could have expected no other reception for the challenge she sent us than the one she received. As long as we entertain any respect for ourselves, as long as we desire to see college boat-racing raised above the level of street-fights, we must turn a deaf ear to such braggadocio messages as this one from Cornell. The spirit displayed by this invitation to row "in case we win the race with Yale" is the spirit of the prize-ring. There is a deep-seated feeling in the breasts of every one to see our crew row with...

The cups to be offered in the spring will be of a more attractive kind than those...
...would be tempted to read them; but three columns in a single paragraph is more than one cares to undertake. When treating of the oratorical contest under the title of "A Literary Circus," it is certainly not witty, as the following extract will show: "The auburn-whiskered Higginson must have made an irreproachable ring-master. As for lugubrious clowns, representatives of the Darwinian theory and animals which sometimes prefer to "locomote" backward, who can doubt that they put in a large, if not an appreciated representation...
