...intercollegiate games on Saturday, Yale again came out ahead by a safe margin. Harvard won second, though Pennsylvania was close behind. Pennsylvania's large score, however, does not represent the work of many men, but of one. E. S.

...such plan was bound to come in the course of time has long been evident. With regard to the details of the plan actually presented, it strikes us that the number at club tables has been put needlessly and dangerously high. Eighteen men to fourteen seats would be a safe proportion. The danger increases rapidly with every further increase in the number...
