...energy of the Finance Club in instituting lectures on topics that are of interest to the general student is well worthy of being emulated by the other societies in college. The lectures given in past years under the auspices of the Philological Society will be remembered with pleasure by all upper classmen who heard them, and those lectures given by the Historical Society were of such general interest that they have been thought worthy of publication in the Johns Hopkins University series. Besides the organizations mentioned there are several others in college which might arrange courses of lectures that would...

...that a repetition is unnecessary. The crew is somewhat lighter than last year, owing to the loss of Mumford, Woodward and Wesselhoeft; still the eight will average between 158 and 160 pounds. They are rowing with slides, and with a slow stroke - about 27 to the minute. As a general thing the form is excellent for this time of the year. The catch is firm and sharp, and the time in general is good, although there are one or two men who are apt to get tired, and break up the uniformity of the stroke. The slides are held very...

This crew is rowing at present with the slides, about 29 strokes per minute. The general appearance of the crew, looking "bows on" is very irregular, several of the men swinging out of line continually; furthermore only half of the crew get a decisive snap on the catch, two, three, four and six being deficient in this particular. The three stern men row well together, but in the bow the time...

...rather fast stroke, about 31 or 32 to the minute. The crew has yet a somewhat ragged appearance caused by the men not swinging straight fore and aft. This, although simply a matter of appearance in the gymnasium, becomes very important in a narrow shell. There is a general tendency throughout the boat, and particularly so with number seven, and one or two others to hurry the recover and hang at the full reach. The time is good in the stern and waist, but poor in the bow. Number five has improved much in form, but gets a slow catch...
