...attention of those who intend to compete in the winter meetings is called to the following athletic regulation: 3. No student shall enter as a competitor in any athletic sport, or join any college athletic club as an active member, including lass-ball, foot-ball, cricket, lacrosse and rowing associations, without a previous examination by the director of the gymnasium and his permission...
...experienced friend is valuable, but a fixed purpose and the wisdom to avoid outside allurements is of still greater advantage.

Why would not a course on military science be of interest as well as instructive to the students? Most of the men who enter Harvard are totally ignorant of everything military except what they may have learned accidentally from the perusal of histories. This is a country averse to large standing armies. Consequently corps of well educated officers and military schools where men are instructed to become officers are wanting. West Point is scarcely able...
