...returns for it. The question is when is this state of things coming to an end? Manifestly not when two individuals who have been committing systematic robbery, are allowed to go free after paying a fine of fifteen dollars. Yet such was the penalty that the court of Cambridge saw fit to inflict on the aforesaid freshmen. When thieves can systematically steal with a small risk of detection, in spite of the watchful vigilance of those in charge of the gymnasium, and when, if detected, they can go scott free by paying a sumequal to not one quarter of what...

The freshmen got off first and failed to entertain the spectators quite as much as has previously been the case. It is rumored, however, that they rehearsed their performance in the morning in pair oars. Eighty-nine was second off with Mr. Keyes, '87, as coach. Ninety followed next...
