...Vassar Football Game," but are sure that we did wrong to read such an article. We might possibly do it again, however. What there is in the University Magazine is good, particularly the editorials. Its tone is manly. The Cornell Era has been turned into a twelve-column report of lectures on Germany. The literary articles of the Cornell Review, though well written, are not fresh. The "Paragraphs" are interesting but as a whole the paper is too ambitious. The Amherst Student is not ambitious, but succeeds in expressing the sensible spirit which has always distinguished its college. The Brunonian...
...question of the refusal by the Corporation of the Crimson's subscription for plank walks is discussed in another column. The fact that the subscription book was open for nearly three days, and that, besides the generous subscription of the Advocate in support of our own, but two instructors, twenty-three students, and one outsider put down their names, is suggestive.

...poor and is trying to work his way through college. We wish to say, therefore, that we do not expect to be injured in the least by the Harvard Register; and, secondly, that we have good reason for believing, from the letter of a reliable correspondent published in another column, as well as from other sources, that Mr. King is not a poor student who is working his way through college. Even if he were, however, he would have no business to do so in the role which he has chosen. No one has more respect than we have...
