...large majority. We think that the spirit which favors the introduction of professionalism into college athletics is greatly to be deplored and should be promptly discouraged, as one can easily see to what excesses the custom may be carried. As yet Harvard has had no reason to regret her course, and she hopes that before long other colleges may be brought to her view of the matter; only then can college athletics be brought to that state of perfection to which they should...
...Beaman, '85; Crocker, '85 (capt.); Follansbee, '85; A. Hamlin, '84; Hoyt, '85; Keep, '84; Lovering, '84; Lowell, '83; Phillips, '86; Smyth, '83; J. A. White, '84; S. E. Winslow, '85. With four exceptions, all the above have already at some time or other played on the nine.

To be sure, some very clever things, both in drawing and writing, may be found in its columns, but much that is at least in bad taste finds room there as well. A great contrast is presented in the Princetonian, which is undoubtedly in the front rank of college papers. Its make up and appearance are excellent, and it is most entertaining reading. It scores a point...
...great number of complaints on this subject seems to indicate an inability on the part of the Society to do its work with perfect accuracy. If men were provident enough to give their orders in plenty of time this delay would be of little account; but as, we regret to say, they are not, some means of making the Society more reliable should be devised. More care on the part of the Society, and more forethought on the part of the members, will obviate the trouble. The contracts with the affiliated tradesmen should also be put on a better footing...
