...universal opinion here that the University of Pennsylvania fellows are spoiling for a fight. The way the Magazine editors go off half-cocked is certainly amusing; but when they accuse us of being afraid to row them last summer then we "larf most immoderate." If Columbia had ever signified her intention of entering the regatta at Lake George, the university might have some cause for complaint, but as we never expected to enter that regatta or give the University of Pennsylvania any reason to think we would enter, all their charges are as "empty as the wind." As for rowing...
...unequalled opportunities for the study of this subject in connection with his work in preparing and issuing his valuable "Forestry Bulletins." In that work he advances several reasons to explain the rapid disappearance of the pine forests of this country. At no time, however, has he, I believe, ever considered the explanation suggested by our subject - the alarming growth and extent of the use of wooden toothpicks in this country, requiring for their manufacture, as they do, so large a consumption of native timber.

Not, it is to be hoped, should co-education ever be admitted at Harvard to the extent that it holds at Cornell or at Ann Arbor, but perhaps under some modification of the system prevalent at Oxford and Cambridge in Girton and Newnham colleges. On the grounds of economy, if on no other, such a result might be desired...
...Princeton - Columbia exhibition game causes many to be very sanguine. The betting in New York indicates considerable confidence in our team. The eleven is, however, weak in some points, and less than a week remains to perfect their playing. The team is better trained this year than ever before, and, with few exceptions, the men seem in excellent condition...
