...college. This is a matter which deeply concerns the welfare of the University, and in which instructors and students alike have an interest. The committee wish to know what are the habits of exercise and the opinions of students of every sort; of those who take no active part in athletics, or do not exercise at all, as well as of those who witness, support, or enter athletic contests. If even a small percentage of students fail to respond, the results will be incomplete and unsatisfactory. The committee therefore earnestly request you to fill out the enclosed blank...
...mistaken, elocution, although one of the most practical of all branches of education, has never had a recognized position in any of the departments of the University. Whatever attention has been given to the subject has been out side regular work, and entirely voluntary on the part of the student. In spite of this drawback the instructor who has had the course in charge during the past two years has succeeded in obtaining excellent results. Now that the subject is to be given its proper place in the elective system, the scope of the course will doubtless be much broader...

...second inning, both sides went out in one, two, three order, but in the third, the Harvard men, by a lucky bunching of their hits, a base on balls by Dalzell, and two or three errors of judgment on the part of the Yale fielders, managed to pile up five runs, making the score 7 to 0. From this time on, it must have grown rather dark in the neighborhood of second and third base, or else the umpire lost his eysight, for his base decisions were, to say the least, queer. This discouraged the Harvard men, and seemed...
Since the discussion aroused by the proposal to tear down the Yale "fence" there has been some hard feelings on the part of the students toward the faculty. The students thought themselves unjustly treated by the summary way in which their protest and petition were ignored. The disapproval of the faculty was further aroused by the great celebration of the victory over Harvard last Saturday night. The rejoicing exceeded all bounds of moderation and was carried into the small hours of Sunday morning. The hostility was intensified Monday night, the occasion being the annual celebration of the death...
