...certain that all the protest purely against the chapel will avail nothing. The time for destructive criticism is at an end. Too much of it invariable tends to make the opposite side stubborn. When some agreement is reached on a memorial that would be fitting and useful a still stronger case for chapel opposition can be made. It is hoped that the administration, in view of the protest made and the suggestions offered, will reconsider its stop to proceed with the chapel this summer and again submit to a same discussion of the question, detached from the fever of hard...
...second University team appears to be the stronger, having won four out of five games, and tied the fifth. The second team has beaten Belmont Hill 6 to 3, Northeastern 2 to 1, Colby 11 to 1, Newton 2 to 1, and tied Noble and Greenough 2 to 2. The Freshmen, however, have also had a fairly good season, winning five out of eight games, and should give the Seconds a good game. The Freshmen defeated Arlington High 3 to 1, Milton 2 to 0, Wilbraham Academy 3 to 2, Andover 4 to 0, Worcester Academy...

These hideous scenes accompanying Spain's struggle for independence, were translated...
...found to be aspects of the same fundamental, that he would be able to express all the laws governing electromagnetism, gravity and light by one mathematical equation. Proof of his Unified Field Theory has already been found in experiments with weak electromagnetic and gravitational fields. Additional work on stronger fields and in terrestrial magnetism is still needed to check him. The theory, says Dr. Einstein, provides a conception for a new geometry of space having for constants the speed of light, the charge of an electron, the mass of an electron, the mass of a proton, and Max Planck...
