...feeling of the undergraduates in regard to the proposals made at the last meeting of the Board. The meeting was entirely unofficial and was held simply with the view of discovering how much truth there is in the articles which have recently been published, and also of discovering whether or not the tendency of the undergraduates in regard to the matter of attending recitations and chapel is in the right direction. The idea was suggested of making all recitations of the freshman year compulsory but this course was objected to on the ground that it would only delay the students...

To whatever cause the poorness of the eleven is due, whether to the inefficiency of the captain, or to the lack of interest among the men, one thing is very sure; unless a speedy imorovement takes place, whether by the training of new men or by the better work of the old ones, the team can look with confidence to a disgraceful defe at at the hands...
