...champion comes to defend. Whoever is dissatisfied with what he is doing in History 13, and desires a new plan adopted had better read our correspondent's letter and make his decision once more. The work in History 13, no doubt, looks appalling to a man who has never seen anything like it before, but a little practice will enable him to work as economically under the present system as under any other. What our correspondent says in regard to printed outlines with references in the other history courses deserves attention, and we would heartily recommend the consideration...
...boom single sculling at Harvard. A cup has been offered to the best sculler in college and the race is more sharply contested every year. It seems strange that so manly and health-giving an exercise as single sculling, encouraged by all the boating men of the college, has never been encouraged by the gymnasium authorities.

Boyden's catching was especially good, never missing a ball, though surrounded almost every time by Yale men; while Sears and Fletcher did good work in their respective positions, showing the good training they had, and their complete confidence in the rest of the team. This confidence was justified, as the rush-line played a steady, hard...
...ball. Here we had an eleven composed of new and inexperienced men, men who have played but this year and who had no traditions to help them: yet they went on the field against what Yale believed to be as strong an eleven as she has ever had, and never breaking, played, a first class scientific, up-hill game. They had little time to get into shape and were not as well up in some of the refinements of the game as Yale, but they played as strong a game as any previous Harvard eleven has ever done, and showed...
