...conference, student delegates were to be elected in the second week of the college year. This week is already upon us, and yet no move has been made. We have learned from the faculty that the students are the proper body to take the initiative, and we would therefore suggest that the officers of the three upper classes take immediate measures to hold an election in the course of the next few days. It will be well to arouse an interest among the students before calling for their votes, and we would suggest that next Tuesday, falling within the second...

Some men make a business of this tutoring, and, if successful, win a college reputation. The fact that tutoring exists...
...respectable number of paying spectators at the games played upon our unfenced grounds, and partly from the fact that the undergraduate purse has showed great reluctance to loose its strings when called upon to help swell the subscription list. To relieve the association from its embarrassment we would suggest that a "benefit" game be played on Holmes, feeling sure that the reputation of our team is strong enough to attract a large audience,- to the great profit of the somewhat depleted coffers of the club...
