...resignation of two members of the Glee Club seem to be variously understood here in College, it may not be out of place to state them definitely and unmistakably. At the beginning of the first term, last October, the attention of the editors of the Crimson was called, by certain members of the Glee Club, to the anomalous proceedings of the "Arion Quartette" during the previous summer.

...against Cornell and Columbia, and bear off the laurels of the much-talked-about "championship." If it were also announced that half of the same Harvard eight would subsequently compete for the four-oared cup, the number of entries therefor would be increased. Princeton, for instance, would be almost certain to train a four, if assured that the same would have a chance of trying conclusions with Harvard...
