...unbroken series of victories. The only event in which the Yale freshmen may yet win is the boat-race at New London, and no stone should be left unturned to prevent the marring of an unusual record. To give the crew a fair chance against its rival, it is essential that it has an equal period of training at New London. To do this at least three hundred dollars must be added to the subscriptions. Unless this is done, the departure of the crew will be delayed a week, and they will have ten days less at New London than...
...Whidden is very effective as Punjab, and J. C. Miller, as Sthu Pid, the rival for the possession of the kingdom, imitates excellently the Chinese dialect, although he fails to speak loud enough at times. I. T.

There would be no economic equilibrium in such a regime. Prices would not even be seeking their level. A regime of monopoly is further contrasted with that of competition with...

The Harvard Union had been organized in 1880, with W. R. Thayer '81 as its first president, and was originally intended to form the nucleus of a University club like the Unions of Oxford and Cambridge. In 1881 the club divided into two independent organizations, the new Harvard Union and the Wendell Phillips Club. The former soon adopted the old name, the Harvard Union, and the Wendell Phillips Club changed...
