...made less monotonous and more earnest and attractive if they feel that the eyes of all the University are upon them. As it is at present, the 'Varsity row every day, rain or shine, and the Nine practise daily in the Gymnasium, and yet not a man takes enough interest to watch and give them an encouraging word. Last year after the race, members of the 'Varsity were heard to complain of this very treatment. Harvard will have to work very hard for success next year, and we hope that every man will consider it his duty, whenever...
...price of board per week for November in Memorial Hall has been $4.29.

The collections are small as yet, owing to lack of funds; but they will prove of very material benefit to those who have elected Fine Arts courses, besides being of much interest to others. Mr. Moore's copies are works of great excellence, and deserve careful study; the casts from the Phidian marbles will lead to a much better understanding of Greek art than has before been possible; and the collection of photographs is very interesting, and tolerably large...
...right, again, in advising '82 to row Columbia, because he did not know how much the class races were going to amount to, as in that year they were rowed for the first time for a long while. When the Crimson said that a Freshman race clashes with the interests of the 'Varsity, it did not refer simply to such a direct act as refusing to give up a Freshman oar to be a substitute on the 'Varsity; the feeling that prompted that refusal is of far greater importance than the act itself; it indicates a division of interest...
