Frequent demands have been made during the last few years for a course in contemporaneous history, but hither-to without success. Next year, however, Professor Cohn proposes to give a course upon the actual state of European affairs, including such questions as Home Rule, the Bulgarian Question, the relation of the Great Powers to each other, etc. The newspapers will be used from time to time in connection with the other text books.

Both teams had won every previous game they had played in this year's championship series, and thus to-day's game was most important. The playing on both sides was very fine, Harvard doing the better team play and Princeton the more brilliant individual work. The goals for Princeton were thrown by Bonsal and Paxton.
