...paper seem to have passed away with the days of rowing; but now, at the first symptom of a revival of the latter, the former awakes in full strength. We are not criticising here the action of the University Boat-Club in challenging Cornell, but simply the Era's manner of receiving the challenge. Cornell has not yet recovered from the evil effects of the management of her papers during the last years of the Intercollegiate races at Saratoga, and now seems to be relapsing. To charge a sister college with mean subterfuges and "sporting dodges" argues a very...
...earliest possible date. The Executive Committee not being composed of jockeys and blacklegs, it was never supposed that they could be so misinterpreted, or they would have guarded themselves more carefully against the Era.

...approaching exhibition of etchings at Sanders Theatre by the Art Club, and the lecture by Professor Norton, seem to us deserving of more than the bare statement of facts given last week. It is to be conducted in the same manner as one which Professor Norton gave, along with a lecture on etchings, at Parker Memorial Hall several years ago. The interest in the Art Club has greatly increased among its members, and we feel convinced that this exhibition will tend to arouse a similar interest among the other members of the University. The exhibition is not to be open...
