...Sumner Prize for '86 and '87 has been awarded to Marland Cogswell Hobbs, A. S., of the law school, for the best essay on the subject, "The experience of the past half century in the light it throws upon the possible resort to arbitration as a substitute...

The success which has come to us so far this season can continue until Yale is defeated on the water next...
