That such advice has been given just at this time (without considering for the moment whether it should be followed out next year) is likely to prove most hurtful to the success of the two matches for which our team is pledged this spring. The difficulty of obtaining money-subscriptions in aid of athletics this year is understood by all; and if the lukewarm supporter...

By means of the new regulations we may look forward to a more just division of vacant rooms this year. As the number of applicants will...
...present Senior class, by their vote to abolish the Chaplaincy, made one change in the order of exercises on Class Day. Whether this was done wisely or not, it is not my purpose to discuss, but now that the door is open for reforms, are there not other changes that can well be made, and other alterations incidental to the management of the affairs of the graduating classes, which could be made advantageously...
