Every Harvard man will feel regret that we have lost Dartmouth from among our annual visitors, and we personally express the hope that next season may bring about their return on favorable conditions...
...middle-weight wrestling, the entries were W. J. Bowen, '87, and S. P. Jones, '88. Both men are strong and quick, and for three minutes did some lively work, when Jones was obliged to withdraw, having injured his right arm by a fall outside...
