...Antiquities in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, delivered the first lecture in his course on Greek Art in the Fogg Lecture Room last evening. The lecturer took up and carefully outlined the social, religious and intellectual conditions amid which the Greeks lived, and which tended to foster and develop the spirit...
...mental activity and imagination of the Greeks were stimulated by the very configuration of the landscape about them. Divided into communities by mountain ranges, they had a chance to develop along individual lines, to acquire a distinctive spirit of thought.

Rotch did good work in the high jump, considering that he had just recovered from illness. E. N. Mills...

Harvard and Princeton started the season with a large number of old players and endeavored to keep their elevens intact and to develop team play. On the other hand, Yale and Pennsylvania started with green players and pursued the policy of giving their teams hard, fierce work. No attempt is made to argue for or against any system of training. The writer maintains that the systems of '97 have led to a distinct advance in team play...
