There is a movement on foot to put up new and handsomer buildings for the two library societies, Whig and Clio, the present buildings being too small to accommodate the members. It is the intention...
...base-ball cage will be ready for use the first of next term, and Captain Wagenhust will get his men at work at once upon their return from the holidays. Princeton's prospects have never been brighter in baseball, and, barring accidents, we expect to give the champions a hard rub for the pennant next spring...
