...improvement at least on the "old regime." It is also a notable fact that no complaint has ever been made on the floor of the Union, - the proper place for such expression. Moreover, on only one occasion did a member of the Union propose a fourth question, which, though excellent, the Union rejected, - an evidence certainly of the society's satisfaction with those provided by the committee...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON. - I was not a little surprised, though not at all displeased, at the almost brutal attack the Advocate makes in its issue of yesterday on the venerable Harvard Union. To tell the truth, the Advocate's savage strictures seem to me to be the more unfeeling, because they are undoubtedly true; where the fault lies, and how it is to be remedied, is the awkward question which must be soon decided. There is an abuse, quite as had as the rest, which the writer of the editorial in question did not point out, and that...
...yesterday's defeat was caused by poor fielding. To be sure the fielding of the other side was not of the best, but Harvard's errors were more costly. Captain Phillips tried a new arrangement of the men on bases, which cannot be said to have been thoroughly satisfactory, though Phillips, himself, played a good game at third base.

The game throughout was interesting, and, at times, exciting, but Harvard's work has not yet come up to the standard which it ought...
...college has made no error in her choice. Mr. Hyde entered Harvard from Exeter Academy in 1875, with already a good reputation for scholarship and for facility in public debate. He won honors all along his course, both from faculty and students. By the end of his-senior year, though one of the youngest members, he was considered intellectually as perhaps the most "solid" man in his class; physically also he was athletic, especially at base-ball. He was one of the founders of the Harvard Philosophical Club, president of the two senior literary societies...
...plan seems better than that of trial by jury - the jury to be composed of members of the college. The plain is not without precedent, for already at Bowdoin it has been success fully tried. Also the Amherst Senate has shown itself capable of serving as a judicial body, though not specifically in matters of cribbing, yet in matters relating to general college offences. We believe that trial by jury would not only put a check on the practice itself of cribbing, but also eventually turn general opinion strongly against it. This latter result is far the most desirable...
