THOSE students who have looked forward to a sort of paradise in the way of recitation-rooms next winter will probably find themselves disappointed. Under the conditions of the bequest of Mrs. Sever the executors of her will may defer payment for one year, and circumstances have rendered it probable that such action will be taken; although it is hoped that some arrangement may be made whereby the College may come at once into the possession of the property. The new hall will stand probably on a line with Boylston, and will occupy the place once set apart...
Freshmen, particularly, are requested to come forward in whatever contest they may be able; and here it is well enough to repeat, for their benefit, the rules of the Association with regard to entering these or any other meetings of the Association.

The Captain of the Nine would be glad to see any Freshmen who are willing to canvass among their classmates. While speaking of trophies, we would like to ask why the boating...
...world. It is worth rowing a couple of years to acquire that graceful, powerful style and swing which seem to make the severest labor mere pastime. The new men are stout, vigorous fellows; but they bucket, catch behind the others, do not go back far enough, hurry forward again, and waste more strength in one stroke than the old men do in ten. To row well, as to do well anything worth doing, requires long, faithful practice. If our readers don't believe it, let them go down to the boat-house...
