...difficulty faces us at the outset. In order to bring all graduates of schools together, there should be some place where Freshmen and upperclassmen can meet conveniently, and, which is still more important, where men from the schools can be entertained. So far nothing exists in Cambridge to satisfy these demands. Although the Union is the solution of many questions of accommodation, it is not a panacea for all troubles. Even if ample room would be provided, which is probably impossible, the building is too large to retain a true club atmosphere. It would seem...

Last spring the New England Federatior tried the experiment of bringing back the graduates to study the work of the University, and more than 150 men attended.

Recently they broke even in two encounters with Dartmouth. In the game played last Wednesday they experienced no difficulty in winning from the Green by a 5-1 score. Dartmouth did not threaten until the last inning, when a hit, followed by two errors, allowed a run to cross the plate. Huntzinger pitched well for the Quakers, holding his opponents to four scattered hits. HARVARD. PENNSYLVANIA. Conlon, s.s. 2b., McNichol Hallock...
