...glad to perceive that the rumors concerning Yale's forced withdrawal from the base-ball league next year are false; the interest in the league would decidedly languish if our ancient rival were forced to withdraw from it. But a word on celebrations in general may not be altogether out of place at this moment. It was made apparent by the freshman celebration on Monday night that celebrations can be made enjoyable without being obnoxious. This being so, why skulk about the yard till twelve o'clock, to build a bon-fire out of two soap boxes...
...ticket aids in destroying the character of Class Day. Last year a goody was overheard boasting that she had twenty yard tickets. She had gone to each man in her entry and asked for "just one for herself." Tradesmen's clerks about Harvard Square employ the same tactics. No word of reproof is needed in regard to such carelessness...
...educator who to-day defiantly closes his eyes and ears to a truth which all he may say or do will yet be heard and recognized, does not merit the name 'educator."

We trust that the report which is now current, that Yale will probably in any event be prohibited for playing ball next year, is without foundation. If Yale should no longer...
...this occasion - the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the founding of Harvard - a memorable one in the annals of the present undergraduates. This is a chance which will come to us but once, so let us seize it and have a glorious celebration in every sense of the word. We should count ourselves very lucky in being able to take part in the quarter-millennial anniversary of our Alma Mater. We trust that the newly elected committee will formulate some plan without delay, and we have perfect confidence in their ability to get up a rousing celebration...
