...sheepskin" again; the police squad made as fitting a preface to our delegation as did '88 form an appropriate finis; everyone was pleased; everything was propitious; the streets were dry, and-so were we. Let us congratulate ourselves on our luck in weather and jollity, and then hang our "plugs" upon the wall, for it would, perhaps, be useless to try them on this morning; and then let our college life run on again in its customary channels.

It is still early for a large crowd, but those who wish to learn this interesting game should begin early.

A sport which is looked upon with approval by the college and which has been in the past so generally successful, should get its full share of active support on the field...
