...students for another term, work will be begun in earnest by those who are to represent Harvard next summer in various athletic contests. Last year was one of marked success both on land and water, and this year the prospect is bright. In general athletics, Harvard usually holds the lead by reason of more careful, intelligent and systematical training than her competitors have. There is no especial reason why she should not win the cup at Mott Haven again in 1886. In boating and base-ball many of the old men are here, and they will have the benefit...
...match was very closely contested. At the end of the first round, Dedham led by a score of 13 to 12. In the second round, she again led with a score of 16 to 15.

Why is it that this college dedicated to truth clings with such tenacity to an outgrown institution? The students should raise a voice condemning this evil. And this voice should be heard in the conference with no uncertain sound. The resolution which was tabled expressing a foregone conclusion, should have been passed, and ought certainly to be passed at the next meeting. With this...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON. - Much dissatisfaction is felt at the announcement that the members of History 13 and 18, who do not do special work in those courses, can attain a maximum mark of only 75 per cent. The announcement in the elective pamphlet certainly would not lead any one to suppose that such a method was to be adopted. The special work in the courses is more nearly equivalent to a half course than a quarter course, while the routine work is equal in amount to that of any full course in college...
