...five-year agreement with the Harvard Boat Club may prevent the adoption of the undergraduate rule this year in rowing, and until that question is definitely settled no correct idea of the material at hand can be obtained, The track athletic team likewise, is bound by the rules of the Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association, and in this there are so many colleges that it is impossible to say whether or not it will adopt the undergraduate rule. The nine is not bound by any agreement, and it is almost safe to say that if it meets Harvard and Princeton...

Having seen and carefully examined the Moak collection since it was sold and knowing thoroughly the Harvard Law Library, I have no hesitation in saying that the statement that "Cornell now has the finest law library in the country" is very far from correct. Since the disposal of the Moak Collection a similar statement has been published in many papers and the following is quoted from the Boston Daily Advertiser of October 18: "This addition will make the Cornell Law Library, 23,000 volumes, the largest law school collection in this country." The Harvard Law Library at present numbers upwards...
