...other college nines have had considerable practice already, and several games have been played. In these games the college nines have all made a very favorable showing, so much so that there can be no doubt that the contest this year will be one of even greater interest than has been the case in the past. The college clubs are as a rule far better than those of last year, and all are determined to make a hard fight for the lead.

...DOUBLE TRAPEZE.The exhibition on the trapeze was by Messrs. Bachelder and Davis, whose feats have given interest to many of our previous meetings. Their efforts were liberally applauded, especially the drop motions and the circling acts in the air, which were watched with breathless interest by the lady spectators.

The interest must necessarily flag in one hour courses, in which the students and instructor meet but once a week. By doubling up such courses and having them occupy but half a year with two hours a week of recitations, this disadvantage would in a great measure be overcome as the interest would...
