YOUR last issue contained a letter signed "'81," the object of which was to promulgate the existence of a Freshman Glee Club. As a Freshman myself I may say that, while the idea embodied in the correspondence is one that should meet generally with favor, yet the manner in which that idea was set forth is exceedingly distasteful to a large number of Freshmen. We have no desire to compare ourselves yet with the Junior class, and any attempt to do so is certainly ridiculous in the extreme...
...designed for the use of those students - and their number is large - who wish to have at hand the College club and society lists, and a full record of the athletics of the previous year. The matter, therefore, is always good; but we have some complaint as regards the manner. In the first place, the order which brings the Natural History Society between the Hasty Pudding Club and the Pi Eta, and which places the Law School clubs among college associations is highly objectionable.

The superiority of Princeton's canvas-jackets over our Jerseys was very manifest, and we hope to see our team furnished with similar armor before again encountering these or any other antagonists. All the team are much gratified by the kind attention they experienced at Mr. Barlow's hands...
While in the matter (not manner) of illustrations, the Courant copies the Lampoon, its items, entitled "Yalensicula," flavor strongly of the Boston Transcript. The imitation in this case is more successful; if the Courant's illustrations are not nearly so good as the Lampoon's, its items, in style and taste, are almost as bad as the Transcript...
