...recommending that the penalty for cribbing be expulsion from the college instead of suspension." What the Conference Committee has done is this. Its members have recommended that the regulation regarding cribbing in the published rules, which prescribes suspension or other penalty judged proper by the faculty for cribbing, be stricken out, and that hereafter the penalty of separation from college be unwritten, but firmly understood. That is, cribbing would be taken from college offences, and placed where it belongs, beside stealing and such other offences, as require no statute to condemn them. Perhaps this mistake made by the Acta...
...elegist or chaplain, with his Oxford cap and black gown, and brows and cheeks crocked so as to appear as if wearing huge goggles; four spade-bearers; six pall bearers with a six foot coffin on their shoulders; and then the sophomore class in full ranks. They looked poverty-stricken; their hats, with the rims torn off or turned in, bore the figures '63 in front, that being the year of their class, their apparel such as is suited to the tearing foot-ball fight, and their left leg having crape on them.

With all Harvard men, we hope that Dr. Peabody who has been so much to Harvard and Harvard students, may by the skilful advice of his physicians, be restored to health...
...interest in this sport continues to hold good? There can be but two possible objections, one the cost, and the second, the weather. Neither of these is sufficient for putting an end to the runs. Take, for instance, the matter of cost. The association is not in a poverty-stricken condition, to put it mildly, and the cost, about $6 a hunt, is less in proportion to the number of entries and consequent good accomplished than is the cost of any other event held under its auspices. As for the weather, that will in all probability continue mile enough...
