...college will have an opportunity to-day of seeing what promise the freshman class gives in the way of track and field athletics. The fall freshman athletic meeting is always looked forward to with much interest, not with any great expectation that records will be broken, but because it is the first time that the freshmen have occasion to show their skill in that branch of athletics which has ever been peculiarly Harvard's, We cannot impress too strongly upon the competitors the necessity of doing their very best, for the chance of places on the Mott Haven team depends...

The meetings will not be exactly historical seminars, but they will have the same improving influence. The society in this way will supply that deficiency felt in the historical department, and indeed in every department conducted...
