...students and strikers gathered on Harvard square; but the latter were in a decided minority. At nine o'clock a bell rang in the stables and a chocolate colored Bowdoin square car came swiftly out, escorted by eight mounted policemen and stopped in the square. There was a general stir on the part of the strikers but no aggressive action. The car was filled with students in a twinkling and went off amid the derision of the crowd. The track by long disuse had become too clogged, however, and the car, after moving a few feet, stopped, much...
...mode of marking examinations have been so uniformly favorable in tone that I think the other side of the question should be presented. The following are, I believe, the principal arguments for the new classification system: First, the class limits are so large that an instuctior can in general easily determine in which class any man belongs.

To which Capt. Cook replies: "It must be true, indeed, that the enforcement of correct principles of rowing has had much to do with bringing about...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON: There is a general feeling of dissatisfaction among the students at some of the existing arrangements in the library. At present if a student is a half an hour late in returning reserved books, he looses his privilege of drawing books for a whole month. Thus a single lapse of memory may prevent him from drawing any reserved books during the entire examination period. This is a great injustice. A week would be an ample period of expiation. Then again the present fine of ten cents a day for overdue books is outrageous. In the multiplicity...
