...Tennis association closed the year with a small surplus, the actual receipts (from September 26. 1878, to July 1, 1888,) having been $1120.90. Besides ordinary outlays, such as wages of men employed to take care of the courts, tournament expenses, printing etc; the interest on the debt of the association has been paid for the year, and the debt has been reduced $150, the sum of $270 has been spent on remaking courts, and a payment of $100 has been made on a die for medals. The debt of the association. which was originally $850, contracted...
...financial statement of the university boat club published in another column is remarkable as showing a care and energy in overcoming obstacles hardly shown heretofore in the management of crew affairs. During the past year over ten thousand dollars have been expended for the crew, mostly of course, in the purchase of the launch, two new shells, and the building of the tank; yet despite these largely increased expenses the liabilities have been all met within one hundred and fifty-eight dollars. We hardly believe that a more excellent showing can be made by the management of any past crew...

It was a significant sight to the onlookers when the freshman and 'varsity crews left last spring for New London-the former in a barge, the latter...
...culture. The university should be strong where science is highly developed and should pay less attention to those departments of knowledge which have not reached the scientific stage. Our characteristic word should be concentration; we have selected a group of five departments and shall focus all our means and care to make these the best possible. The more advanced our standard the fewer will be the students and the more expensive the apparatus; at present the funds allow us to receive two hundred and fifty men, and probably the amount spent on each will be without parallel...
...once, and will also obtain images of very faint stars and nebulae. With this telescope, Professor Pickering expects to accomplish as much as seventeen other observatories working together according to a plan recently matured at Paris. The lenses will require almost as much metal and as much time and care in construction as the great Lick lens. The contracts have been awarded to the manufacturers of the Lick lens, and it is expected to be finished in about two years. A similar telescope with a diameter of eight inches, is now being used at the station of the Harvard observatory...
