...President Eliot of Harvard, in his annual report, on inter-collegiate athletic contests have caused a good deal of comment. One journal in this city sagely says that probably no Harvard student ever thought seriously of becoming a professional baseball player or oarsmen. That may be true to a certain extent, but some Harvard men, nevertheless, have accepted money for their services as ball-players or boating men. Tyng, the famous catcher of Harvard, several years ago played a number of games with the Bostons, and Mr. Bancroft, the ex-captain of the Cambridge crew, a young lawyer...

...selection on the programme that could lay claim to any musical form or organism. Its absolute purity of style and sentiment made it the more interesting as the rest of the programme was a mere jumble of tunes. The Svendsen symphony in B is an example of what a certain class of modern symphony writers will compose and label with the name of Symphony. A name to which they can only lay claim thorough their customary division into slow and fast movements. In this symphony, while the fast movements are mere tunes in the jig style, the slow movements...

...sorry to call attention again to a matter of which so much has been said, but the continual playing (?) of some members of the Harvard Brass Band is making some entries uninhabitable. Now that the Semis are upon us, it seems strangely wanting in good taste for certain members of that august body to make all the minutes between 3 and 9 hideous with practicing on brass instruments which are apparently very much out of condition, especially when again and again remonstrances both personally and in the papers have been made to them...

...library when they have no right to remove them. This cannot be condemned in too strong terms. It is most unworthy of any student to deliberately take away a book that he knows others are in need of, and which he is bound not to take except on certain conditions and for a very limited time, after having had it checked to him at the desk. A much harsher name might be applied to such an offense with a great deal of justice. This reserving so few copies of a book for the use of a large section...

...sure there are one or two events which we won last year and which can be considered, if all goes well, more or less certainties this year, and those who did well last year can be relied on to train faithfully this year again. Yet confidence in winning certain events should not lead us to think we have any certainty of getting the cup and that there is no need of training new men. There are several events, which we have sometimes won and sometimes lost during past years, some of which we must win next May in order...
