...seems to us that the custom of wearing base-ball suits into Memorial Hall, though rapidly growing in favor among certain students, is not one that recommends itself for universal adoption. We admit that we have never belonged to a base-ball nine, that we are prejudiced, and that we perhaps even deserve to be called squeamish, but still we cannot help objecting to the practice. From an aesthetic point of view blouses of gray trimmed with crimson are not beautiful, and we have been told that one of the advantages gained by boarding in Memorial Hall is the refinement...

...shout out in the Delta the names of the first ten elected from the Freshman class, and then, forming in procession, to march through the Yard singing. That the singing is not as rich in harmony as it is in volume is a lamentable fact we are forced to admit; but we can hardly believe that the sensitive nerves of the College were badly shattered. There is little enough at Harvard to venerate, and that little should be carefully preserved. Such customs, though perhaps barbaric relics of the past, are deserving of some respect; and to interfere with them when...

...promised an increase of work and training for the field-meeting, and it can hardly be doubted that, had such a meeting taken place this year, it would have proved the best ever held at Harvard. But, unfortunately, it cannot be; Jarvis is in a too tender state to admit of even laying a track on it: the sod must first grow thicker, or the field might be ruined for the future. Every one who was present at Beacon Park last year will see the absurdity of attempting another meeting there. It is too far distant to induce...
