...concert as a whole was a very enjoyable one. The Listemann quartet as now constituted, contains the best players that are to be had. Its only weak point is the second violinist, whose tone is at times uncertain and harsh. Their playing is such as to deserve much larger audiences...
...audience assembled in Sanders last evening was much larger than the average, but was no more than the merits of the concert demanded. The singing of the Glee Club was the best which has been heard for several years. Naturally the greatest success was scored in the college songs, which were sung with a good degree of vigor and "snap." "Piper Heidsieck" and the concluding "Medley" were particularly acceptable for their novelty. The glees were sung in unusually good tune, although in regard to expression they might be considered somewhat spasmodic. The "African March" was a very striking number...
...would be utterly unwise to attempt to introduce the system in full operation at Harvard at once into the University. A foot-ball player here, in explaining to me the causes of the defeat of the University by another college team, said: 'their men, you know, are much larger than ours.' 'How so?' said I.

...Yale News for Dec. 1 devotes by far the larger part of its first page to "clippings" from the Princetonian's report of the Yale Princeton game, and enlivens these clippings with characteristic comments.

That the enthusiasm which the Princetonian naturally displayed in its report, should be extremely unpleasant to Yale readers, is hardly surprising. While we do not say that the Princetonian showed perfect taste...
...with a brief necessary intermission on account of darkness, the advantages of reading any or all of the papers on file can be enjoyed until 8.30. The accommodations are limited by the funds that are forthcoming. If every one who appreciates this revived institution will become a recruiting agent, larger quarters can be obtained, more papers placed on file, and the accommodations increased. We do not beg for support for the reading-room, but we do assert most emphatically that it can be made a vital source of good in our college, and that all who step forward with their...
