...Museum of Princeton College has grown very rapidly in the last few years. The museum now embraces the Sheldon Jackson and Trumbull-Prime collections, the collection of Etruscan potteries made by Professor Frothingham and several others, most of which are well known; and recently a collection of bronze medals, medallions and coins of Modern Europe and America has been presented to the college by Mrs. Robert L. Stuart of New York. Perhaps the most interesting series of medals is the one cast in honor of the president of the United States by order of Congress. There is also an interesting...
Circulars have been received by the CRIMSON announcing a winter tennis tournament at St. Augustine, Florida. Many men in college will doubtless be interested in the plan. Several noted tennis players are prime movers in the affair, and among them Mr. R. D. Sears, formerly of Harvard. "A season of exceptional brilliancy is assured this winter at St. Augustine by the opening of the new palatial hotels. Among the events of interest proposed is a series of out-door tennis tournaments for both ladies and gentlemen, in singles, doubles and pairs, to be held about the middle of March...

Last spring there was a mutual agreement between the college publications at Harvard and Yale to take all statements which appeared in the daily papers concerning college matters with a great deal of charity.

...another column we publish a communication that deserves all attention from '91. Trying for the crew not only affords exercise to the candidates, but fosters interest in athletics and this is of prime importance if we intend to win anything this year. Especially should the freshmen cultivate such interest, because of their recent standing. Class feeling for them has hardly had time crystallize into enthusiasm, and because of the newness of their surroundings they are apt to give their attention to matters of less real importance to themselves, their class and their college, than athletics...
...ball field for Yale. It was a great disappointment to the New Haven students to be beaten in the last Harvard game. They had really felt quite sure of a victory, but Stagg had an off day, and the red-jerseyed men pounded his delivery badly. He is in prime condition now, and has sworn vengeance for the drubbing his pitching got before. No one here doubts his ability to outwit his opponents if he is in good condition. He has done it so often before that the faith in him is unbounded. There is little chance that Yale will...
