...HAVE heard that the Captain of the Sophomore Crew does not intend to stay here with his men during vacation, in order to keep them in training and improve their form, as the Captains of the other crews are going to do. The report may be untrue; but, if it is not, I, as a member of the Class of '82, wish to call the attention of the Class to it and also to show the Captain that there is a strong feeling in the Class that he ought to stay, even if he cannot get a complete crew...
...overcome. The fact that Yale's crew have been on the water all the winter shows that they will leave no effort untried in order to bring victory to their side. Moreover, they have three of last year's crew, and their winter practice has put them in good form already. Hardly as much can be said of our crew.

...marked improvement in sparring since his plucky bouts with Thomsen, '80, and Spaulding, 81, at the last two meetings.

The student writes upon a slip of paper his age, college class, the address of the superintendent of the Sunday school which he attends, and his mother's maiden name. He drops this into a little box; below is a sealed compartment in which are one thousand assorted excuses; turning the crank of the machine, the proper excuse drops...
...event was the deciding bout of the Middle Weight Sparring between Mr. W.A. Gaston '80, the champion of last year, and Mr. Brigham, '80, the winner of the previous bout. This contest was not so interesting as was anticipated, as Gaston was not by any means up to his form of last year. He was rather quicker in his leads than Brigham, but the latter's counters were more effective, and the cup was finally awarded him at the end of the three rounds...
