...first day it was too hot for a sane man to ride, and on the other it rained. Still there can be no excuse for not having had a run on some one of the many beautiful days we have had. The Bicycle Club supports a president, captain, and sub-captain, and I fail to see why some one of these officers should not have called a run long before this. The opinion seems to prevail among members of the club, that if the management does not wake up this spring, the death of the Bicycle Club will be recorded...
Third, the charge that the work is sub-let is absolutely false. The entire work is done at the Boston studio, where the facilities are excellent for developing the negatives. The work is done by Mr. Notman's regular operators and receives equal attention with the rest of his work. It would seem, therefore, that the charges made by your correspondent are unjust and unfounded on fact. He states that his information comes from "good authority." We challenge him to produce this good authority, for charges of this kind should not be made unless substantiated by something more than vague...
...Notman promised to do the work in highest style at his Boston studio. With that undesstanding, the contract was given him by a small majority vote of the class, at the urgent recommendation of the photographic committee.

...Many of these groups have already been taken, and have been accepted as satisfactory by the societies interested. Most of the societies named in the communication are not included in the class work, and with them the senior class photographer has no official connection. The charge that Mr. Notman sub-lets the work is ridiculously untrue, as we have been informed on reliable authority. We suppose, however, that the committee can easily show the untruth of these alleged "desires for economy." We wish to repeat that the senior class has elected Mr. Notman photographer, and that they ought...
...periodic compliments. Several changes are noticed in the method of assigning college rooms. Hereafter, Holworthy is to become a special paradise of upper class men. No '89 man can have even the satisfaction of imagining that he has a small chance of becoming an inmate of those inviting walls. Sub-freshmen and all under-graduates, this year, will make their applications at the same time. By this change, an old cause of complaint will be removed. The main features of this system, however, remain intact. The old college hat will be brought out of the band box again...
