...Thursday, February 25. the Yale Financial Union issued its annual report, which showed that the receipts for the fiscal year 1902-1903. were $92.711, which was somewhat over $9,000 larger than the previous year, and the highest on record. This did not include freshman athletics or the minor sports, such as basketball, hockey and tennis. It is therefore no exaggeration to set Yale's financial receipts from athletics at $100,000 a year.

The book will be much larger in size, containing over 240 pages. An important addition will be short lives of each member and a class history. The album will contain photographs of all the members of the class, of the Faculty, of all College buildings, and of the most important University teams and organizations...

As furnishing discipline in this form of writing, no single subject is more interesting to students themselves and to their possible public than literary criticism. With regard to the vexed...
Other interesting tables show that it is certainly no easier to stay in Harvard College than to enter it. Indeed the percentage of eliminations is much larger within the College that it is at the entrance examinations. In the course of the year 1902-03, 68 men left the class of 1906 and 66 the class of 1905; both classes losing over eleven per cent in this single year...
