...more senior in June. Beginning next year the scholarships will be assigned only to the three upper classes, so that each class will receive about thirty instead of the former twenty.

Brown has put a good team in the field for several years past, and there is no reason to fear a tame contest this afternoon. The game will be called at four o'clock...
