...HAVE been told that there was a foot-ball match last Tuesday. I am told that there is to be another one on Friday. The one I did not see, and the other I do not expect to see. Why? Because, instead of taking place on Holmes Field, where I could easily go without any trouble or loss of time, the games are played in Boston, and at the extreme end of Boston. I suppose that there is some good reason for this, but it seems very strange that, when the College has provided us with a convenient and good...

...their uniforms, or the newspapers chronicle the result of the game; and soon another subscription-paper is circulated to pay a deficit. Now what the College wants is a full statement of where every cent of the money subscribed has gone; and this we have a right to expect. While we have no word of complaint to utter against a single club, we think it eminently just that every treasurer should keep, for the benefit of those who help to support that club, a careful account of every expenditure, and that such accounts should from time to time be made...
