Next Monday the annual Intercollegiate tennis tournament takes place at New Haven. Harvard has always sent good men to contend for the championship of the colleges, and will, we think, make as good a fight this fall as in former years. Although the contest takes place in New Haven where our rivals from Yale and Trinity will have the encouragement that suppositories afford, still we have faith in the men the tennis association send out, and hope that the victory of last year may be repeated this fall...

It is a fallacy to think that there is but one sort of learning to be honored. The learning of the book and the college, the learning of the forum and the exchange, are all to be prized, and we who live in a university town have a share in each. The atmosphere that surrounds the university...
