HARVARD vs. PRINCETON. (Second Game.)ON Saturday morning the Senior class had a gymnastic contest in their fine gymnasium; many ladies were present, who evinced a great interest in the various exercises.

M. with Princeton at the bat; the same high wind prevailed as the day before, and greatly affected the batting. Both sides drew blanks for two innings although Wright made a three-base hit over left field...

At the close of the recitation this gentleman expressed to the class his dissatisfaction with the way the elective was conducted, advocating reading with expression, and going over less work in the course of the year. The instructor, in defending himself, said that his idea was to go over as much ground in the course as possible, and not to attempt fine elocution and expression in reading. A discussion followed before the division, in which the Examiner...
...entirely completed. The architects did not receive the proposals of contractors for the work until a day or two ago, and Mr. Hemenway must be consulted before any of these proposals can be accepted. If the estimates of the cost of putting up the building, in accordance with the present plan, prove satisfactory, the contractors will begin at once. If, on the other hand, it is found necessary to make decided changes in the design, work will be delayed several weeks. While we are desirous naturally to see the building begun, and while we are disappointed by delays, we cannot...
