...before the race. The contest into which he is about to enter with Mr. Livingstone is in no point of view an intercollegiate race between Harvard and Yale; it is strictly a private match. But as each of the contestants holds the single-scull championship of his college, deep interest will be felt in the result. We hope that all members of the University realize how important a place this race will hold in Harvard's boating annals. The interest which it will afford will well repay the trouble of making the short trip to Lake Quinsigamond, and the presence...
...wish to call the attention of all crews and single-scullers to the necessity of keeping a clear course on the river for the University Crew. The lively interest which has been lately aroused in boating has caused the river to be somewhat crowded at the hour when the Crew rows, and it is, perhaps, almost impossible to avoid an occasional accident.

The writer, at least in the first part of his article, seems to think they are not; that because so many men will receive the lower grades of honors, the list will have no interest to any one. But it is not easy to see how the interest felt in honors which four or five men or which ten or twelve men only succeed in winning is to be materially diminished by the fact that fifty or sixty students win an entirely different honor...
