Bowdoin students will find in him, should he become their president, an enthusiastic sympathiser in their sports, for he is a good base ball player and an adept in the manly art of self defence. It may be remarked in passing that it is a little singular that Mr. Hyde should be the second man in his Andover class of '82 to be called to a college presidency...

It is many years since our hospital has had a patient in its wards, and anything like the epidemic diseases which often cause other colleges to close their doors is utterly unknown to us.
