...there was a spirit of fault-finding prevalent among them, in consequence of the not over-sumptuous accommodations, but when they had listened to the introductory remarks of the Professor, made with his characteristic earnestness, discontent was turned into content, and all set cheerfully about their work, feeling that none ought to murmur since he who might did not. What the future of this school will be cannot be foretold; a great many have applied for admission to next summer's course, and the number to whom this privilege can be granted is, with the exception of two or three...

...never before have there been so many intercollegiate contests. Last year, when twelve colleges announced their intention of sending crews to Springfield, the college papers were eagerly scanned for all news which could have any possible bearing on the condition of their crews.
