...complete gymnasium, with all the appurtenances and conveniences that are necessary, and if spring opens favorably, we may hope to see it finished next September. There will probably be in it a large room, accessible by a private stairway from a side door, where there will be space to show the flags of the University crew, and where the cases containing the base balls belonging to the nine may be displayed. The Athletic Association also intends putting up in this room wooden tablets, on which shall be engraved the entire record of the Association, with the winners' names, the event...

The Index is designed for the use of those students - and their number is large - who wish to have at hand the College club and society lists, and a full record of the athletics of the previous year.
