...Sophomore class is the last one to put a team in the field. A meeting was called for last night to elect a captain in order that practice might begin today. So few men attended the meeting, however, that the election could not be held. It was decided to call another meeting, to take place in Apley Court Gymnasium on Thursday night. Preliminary practice will begin the day after...

It is the intention of H. L. Stone '01, the leader, that the entire band shall accompany the football team to Philadelphia next month. To do this a fund must be raised, and with the hope of securing the necessary amount--about $300--subscription lists are to be started. Following a regular custom, the band will give a series of concerts during October and November in front of University Hall...
