...class occasionally, and then only for a few minutes, should not be paid for more dearly than the most advanced courses in History or Mathematics. The students have suffered this imposition for two years already, and it may last several more unless they protest. If the college is in need of funds, it is certainly not fair to raise them by imposing extra fees on men who can ill afford to pay them. The writer of this article will not profit by any change in this matter, but he would like to see redressed, an abuse that has lasted long...

Strength, speed and swiftness are essential...
Although the recent defeat of the freshman nine was, perhaps, a surprise to the college, the lesson to be deducted from it is obvious, -'87 must work to win the games with Yale. Yet the nine need not feel disheartened by this game. Many things were against them ; the pitching of Andover was probably more effective than any they will have to face in the subsequent games, and the condition of the ball was such as to render good fielding almost impossible.
