...hear that "our main principle is never lost sight of, namely, to have plenty of room for everybody." And we see, with pleasure, that a proper place for exercising will be afforded to the Crew and Ball Nine. A large room is also spoken of where the Athletic Association intends putting up tablets, with the cases of the Ball Nine and the flags of the Crew.

I had supposed, it seems fallaciously, that we were all bound by certain feelings of consideration for each other, and that...
...have devoted so much space to the Lit. that there is little room for saying anything else; fortunately, we have little else to say! However, as we are not so lucky as to have a Crimson correspondent from Wellesley, we cannot pass over the letter from that sister college of ours to the Dartmouth.

They too are suffering from examinations; with this difference, that in order...
