...remember rightly Yale has hinted that our freshmen showed hesitation in accepting the challenge on account of lack of "sand," - but we naturally pass this by without further comment, simply recalling the foot-ball game between the two '90s which met with such happy results...

...course the retention of a room may seem a small matter to him, but to myself it is far different. Indeed my whole spread depends upon the use of that one room; without it I shall not have sufficient space to carry out my programme; with it everything will pass off well.

...concert in Sanders Theatre last evening was fully equal to the usual good work of the Symphony Orchestra. We cannot let the opportunity pass of giving our hearty support to these performances. They are an addition to the course of study at the college, and at the same time they create a certain pleasant diversion to the monotony of the regular work. A large number of men attend them when given in Cambridge, who would never think of going into Boston, although they really enjoy the music when they are once in the hall. But, as we all know, many...
