...publish today the concluding portion of a brief review of Mr. Hurd's book on the athletics and athletes of Yale. There is much in the book that he extremely interesting, but nothing so much so as the graphic picture that is given of the endless rivalry between the sister institutions-Yale and Harvard. We lose sight of that other field-the intellectual-in which the two universities are brought together in competition, and we see two great bodies of students perpetually preparing for the struggle that is never decided. Every winter the long process of training is undergone cheerfully...
...publish in another columna communication in which is a complaint which seems to us entirely just, a complaint concerning the action of the manager of the nine in raising the price of reserved seats from twenty-five to fifty cents. The base-ball club has never been a needy organization; in fact, it has always had more money than it could convenrently spend, and this too when reserved seats were thought to be worth only twenty-five cents.

The book is tastefully bound and is as well an ornament as a real companion. We heartily recommend this little volume...
...publish today the set of resolutions unanimously adopted by the members of the Harvard Club of New York at their annual meeting. The opinion of such graduates as these, men of all ages and of large experience, should have great weight with the members of the faculty. The views of the undergraduates may be cast aside, but those of the Alumni must command respect. The Board of Overseers have seen fit to lay upon the table the petition of a large number of graduates in favor of allowing the nine to play with professionals, and we are glad that...
