...presence of ale were allowed at Memorial it would give that social attraction, that home-like, comfortable air to the hall that few men would resist. Instead of being a half-deserted, lonesome place, which makes a man feel "blue" the instant he enters it, it would become a true commons, where would resort the most of the men in college, to pass what would become the pleasantest hour of the day. I trust that you will give this communication a place in your columns, although I confess that it may seem very much of an innovation which I advocate...

...will be interrupted and system of instruction interfered with. The inconvenience and loss of time thus resulting from these two resignations seems to call for a practical reform in the methods of appointing the instructors in elocution. At present the appointments are merely annual, and the subjects of them feel that they are accepting their positions only till better opportunities for advancement present themselves. Harvard should, perhaps, feel complimented by the success attained by Mr. Riddle and Mr. Sargent, but the students of elocution under them little appreciate our institution being made a training-school for the drama.

...four class crews and the 'Varsity, but amid all these devotees to aquatic sports there appear no single scullers. When we remember Harvard's former glory in this respect, and the honors gained by her representatives abroad, as well as the well-contested victories in exciting local races, we feel that there exists at present a lamentable lack of interest in this kind of sport previously so popular and commendable. With '79 and '80 our former champions left college, and since their departure no sufficient revival of interest has taken place to bring out new representatives who will sustain Harvard...

...especial officer should be appointed, with a fair salary, to attend exclusively to the interests of the commons; or how well they could avoid the errors into which we have fallen. Understand us, that we find no fault with those who have hitherto managed the hall, but we feel that unavoidable mistakes have happened, not been made, from the very nature of the circumstances, and we think it has been shown conclusively that students cannot manage a dining association of the size and importance of Memorial Hall. There is only one resource left; let the authorities see that...
