...been caused among the Yale students by an assault made upon J. W. Keller, one of the editors of the Yale News, on Thursday, by Robert S. Rodman, a Senior, of Rock Island, Ill. Rodman felt aggrieved at an article published in the News which seemed to him to reflect upon himself. A rough-and-tumble fight followed Rodman's blow at Keller, and the latter got so much the better of his antagonist that he is about the street, while Rodman is confined to his room...
...Advocate's attack on the Executive Committee seems a little ill-timed, when we reflect that the action of that committee was indorsed by a boating meeting, and when their reasons for "procrastination" are known by most men in college. It does not seem so difficult to apprehend why the Executive Committee should hesitate to bind the College to a race with Cornell, at present our most doughty adversary, when they foresaw as possible what has now happened.

...Ossip has such fine feelings about exactitude, he should himself have been more exact. We did not (though he so asserts) "admit" that our only expectation in censuring H. H. was to make him " reflect upon the sally of wit," and we have shown (contrary to "Ossip's" statement) that we have good reason to express disapprobation. Again he says that because we do not "look upon popular men as manly " we do not admit that "the popularity which the independent man professes to scorn is the esteem, the respect, and the friendship of manly men." The reason he assigns...
