...does Harvard claim the "championship"? Would she assume the title even if it were her due? We sincerely trust not; in this country of "champion pie-eaters," "champion walkers," etc., etc., we should hope that no gentleman or set of gentlemen would aspire to be called "champion" anything. As we understand it, Harvard proposes to send her eight, as Columbia did her four last year, merely as a college enterprise, and, without any regard for "championships" or "representative" college crews, to try if either of the English colleges can do in 1879 what they succeeded in doing...
...fame on the Charles are so shy in entering the Junior race. We are confident that there are men in the under classes who pulled in singles before they came to college, and have since neglected this manly sport from sheer laziness. It is understood, we trust, that the fee of three dollars will not be exacted from men who enter for the Scratch Races.

If such a class as '79, which has been characterized by the smoothness of intercourse between its different sections, cannot elect its officers in an open meeting, we shudder...
...will be out in a few days, if all goes well. It has been successful in securing some good new voices to fill the places left vacant by the late graduating class, and "bids fair to enter," as country newspapers would say, "into an era of unparalleled prosperity." We trust that, whether it attempts "real college songs," as it is sometimes urged to do, or gives itself up exclusively to the more chastened delights of the Chickering Collection, it will be as successful as it might be. Let the memory of that crowded house at Sanders Theatre last spring urge...
