...structure is to be of brick with sandstone trimmings. It is intended to give the design the character of colonial architecture, so that it may harmonize with the old College buildings. The main hall will be finished up to the roof. The height will be 52 feet, the length 112, and the width from 63 to 80 feet. Special quarters are to be provided for the Crew and Nine, and nine bowling alleys will be placed in the basement. The estimated cost...

...Board of Directors at Memorial Hall have at length put the Sunday breakfast half an hour later. The general appreciation of the change was shown by the number of men who last Sunday took advantage of this privilege and appeared in the Hall between nine and half-past. Considering how dear to most of us is that extra "forty winks" on the only morning whose slumberous stillness is unbroken by either first or second bell, and considering that all private clubs have late breakfasts on Sunday, it seems strange that the Board have not been sooner compelled, by complaints...
