...About the most wretched part of the whole Springfield fiasco were those songs the CRIMSON sprung upon us. It was bad enough to lose the game without the unnecessary torture of reading such dreary twaddle. Apart from the fact that they were dull, tiresome, poorly printed, and spelled in the altogether original way the CRIMSON at times affects, they were an insult to the entire college. Not even the CRIMSON has the right to put forth such stuff in the name of this college. The spirit that animated the paper was undoubtedly of the best, but these songs were unmistakably...
Professor Palmer lectured before the Prospect Union last night on "The Study of Poetry." He said: Every hard-working man really needs some interest outside of his regular work to broaden him and to keep him from being dull. It seems better that this interest should be in some fine art, music, or painting, or poetry, something entirely without money value, because then we feel that it is of no use to anyone else and is a thing peculiarly our own.

It is certainly not up to the former works of the author, Mrs. Burnett...

After seven inning the score stood, Harward '96 seven, Barristers seven, and it was agreed to call the game. There were absolutely no brilliant features in the game, unless three singles by Griffin can be called brilliant. The roughness of the ground made good play absolutely out of the question. Besides, Winslow being laid off with a sore hand, Brown played third base, Hayes short, and Ames second base. Hayes was particularly unfortunate, making four errors...
...heroine is a little stilted but she knows so much about fishing that we can forgive her. "A Jack-Rabbit Chase" by Belle Hunt, is brisk and amusing. The leading article of the number is "Queens of the Trotting Track." It is chiefly statistics and is rather dull reading to one not particularly interested in the subject. It is illustrated with several full page pictures of the "Queens" from paintings by Gean Smith. A very good story is "The Toltec Idol" by T. Philip Terry. It is a tale of Mexico and is perhaps a little over drawn. Another story...
