...Gymnasium will be finished in March if the weather permits the workmen to get the roof on before the first heavy fall of snow. If not, the interior will not be finished until next summer...
...Wednesday, the 13th inst., the Freshmen Eleven played their third match of the season, at Andover, against the Phillips Academy Eleven. The game was very close during the first "three-quarters," '82 getting one touch-down through good passing and a fine rush by Crehore. In the next "three-quarters," Crehore and Manning each secured two touch-downs; and from one of them a goal was kicked. Sedgwick kicked a goal from the field, thus making the score two goals and four touch-downs for '82, to nothing for Andover. The playing of Crehore, Manning, Sedgwick, and Williams...

In fact, Captain Bancroft is in favor of making our race with Oxford conditional...
...best record since 1876 being worse than 7 min. 43 sec., and Phillips's best performance is 7 min. 38 2/5 sec. Such work as this is highway robbery under the guise of handicapping, and is a disgrace to all who are responsible for it. When the club next give any handicap games, if they will submit to us their list of entries, we will cheerfully furnish such information as will enable them to frame a just handicap and avoid such abominations as we saw last Saturday...
