...rules, such as a foot-ball player in sympathy with the "rough game" might naturally feel, but will also put the control of the games into the hands of certain ones, who while interested in the game, are yet entirely removed from any feeling of partiality. The whole tenor of the changes seems to be quite in harmony with the views that the committee on athletics have expressed.

As a matter of fact, there are but five creditable first tenor voices in the university, and only three of these five even...
...Pierian especially is to be congratulated on its performance. All its numbers were executed with taste, and the ensemble was particularly good. The most pleasing feature of the concert was the tenor solo of Mr. Lilienthal. It was received with long-continued enthusiastic applause. Mr. Cabot's performance on the 'cello, both in the Nocturne and in the encore, was excellent...
