...Medical School are in great lack of subjects for dissection. Neither paupers nor Stewarts can be secured for this purpose...
Captain Bancroft does not regard the University eight as the champion college crew of America, neither does he wish the English colleges to look upon us as champions. Cornell now holds the championship, though her present crew is by no means identical with the crew that won in 1876. On the other hand Harvard has good reason to believe that her crew of 1878 would make a good race with any college eight that can be got together and trained before next summer. It is the desire of our crew to row against Cornell and any other colleges that...
...Sedgwick had touched the ball down, but, as Loney held it on the ground after Sedgwick's hand had been taken off, the referee decided it a touch-down for Princeton, - a decision which created general dissatisfaction. Princeton failed to get a goal, however, and play was resumed, but neither side gained anything, the ball still being at our end of the field when time was called...

This latter was made July 4, 1878, on the best track in America, warm day, no wind, and in a race between the fastest two men we have at this distance, the second man being but 1/5 second behind. Neither of these men could, last Saturday, on an eighth of a mile track, with cold weather and raw wind, have beaten 53 1/2 sec.; and if they had been in this handicap, at scratch, would certainly have been beaten 5 1/2 or 6 seconds, and the handicap would have been absurd...
...Worse than all the scratch men were not our champions, but that mark was assigned to W. M. Watson and G. D. Phillips, neither of whom is within gun-shot of first-class form, Watson's best record since 1876 being worse than 7 min. 43 sec., and Phillips's best performance is 7 min. 38 2/5 sec. Such work as this is highway robbery under the guise of handicapping, and is a disgrace to all who are responsible for it. When the club next give any handicap games, if they will submit to us their list of entries...
