...strained a cord in his leg, and was obliged to give up. Summerhase took the second heat in ten and one half seconds, and ran the third alone in eleven seconds. Herrick was thus disabled for the game. Fortunately Mr. Russell was able to play, and, donning Herrick's suit, took his place in the field. The game began about eleven o'clock, Mr. Howard as umpire for McGill. Mr. Herrick for Harvard...
...There are two things which I have left to your own taste, - books and pictures. You will of course need to buy a certain number of text-books, and if you take my advice, you will also pick up from time to time any outside books that may suit your fancy.

The cap is a little stouter and higher than before...
...remember seeing, in some Western college paper, objection made to obliging a class to appear on a certain occasion in dress-suits, that the class in question would have to purchase a suit for which they would have no use afterwards. This objection may be made against our returning to the old Class-Day costume; but it should have little force, for it need cost no man more than eight dollars to dress himself properly on his Class Day. I earnestly hope that the matter will be seriously considered, and that on the 23d of June the Senior class will...
