...conference has begun its work. The first meeting can hardly be deemed a criterion of its future activity. There were, however, two excellent signs that point to future usefulness, the good feeling evident between the two parts of the committee, and a desire of every member to consider measures in a calm, yet energetic manner. The appointment of the committee to make inquiries into methods of marking, we heartily endorse. The plan originated with the CRIMSON, and we shall expect positive results from...
...wish to urge the students to make an especial point of being present at the meeting called for this evening to discuss the question of building a grand stand on Holmes Field.

Bailey, Dana and Dudley receive prizes. Lothrop, '87, was second, and Wheeler, '86, third hound...
...night the senior class holds the most important meeting of its four years course. The class day officers to be chosen should be men well fitted to represent the class ably and with credit. The meeting bids fair to be a protracted one, and the indications seem to point to a session lasting well into the morning hours. This state of affairs is easily explained. Eighty-six differs from many former classes in having several men well fitted for the various positions to be filled, and at the present writing it appears as if every office on the ticket...
