...indeed admitted in the dedication that the book can lay no claim to being representative of Harvard, but this inconspicuous statement will be overlooked or soon forgotten by the average reader, and a distorted picture of life here will thus be circulated. If such a thing were possible, it would do no harm to confine the circulation of "Harvard Episodes" to Harvard undergraduates...

ALBANY, N. Y., Dec. 8, 1897.- Captains Goodrich, Whitney and Colson arrived at the Hotel Kenmore this morning and remained in conference a good part of the day. No definite statement will be given out for publication as the conference is merely preliminary. The men will leave Albany tonight...

...statement we publish this morning from Captain Cabot will effectually clear away the mass of rumor and misinformation which has been flying about for the last few days concerning the football men. Of course the wearing of the "H" is regulated by the Athletic Committee and no summary action could be of effect without a change of the rules which are now in force. The measure was, then, necessarily voluntary. Far from showing that the coaches have taken such harsh measures to awaken the team to a sense of responsibility, the whole episode offers strong proof that the men feel...
