This year such will not be the case, and the eleven will need the active support of the college. Officers for the ensuing year were elected as follows: Directors, W. H. Goodwin, '84, J. E.

The greater the number of students who eat there the easier will it be to bring about a better state of things, for there are certain necessary expenses which must go on, be the number great or small. It is obvious that if it can be made a success it will be of the greatest value to the college, and, in view of all the facts, we are inclined to think the college ought...
