...take advantage of them. There are even yet some things that freshmen do not know, and it is a kindness to point out to them that the freshman teams of today will be the 'varsity teams two or three years hence. If our freshman teams are poor, we need have no hope for future intercollegiate victories. Ninety-two, you will be responsible for the successes or defeats of the near future, so seize your opportunities while you have them...

Professor Cooke is too well known as an entertaining lecturer to need any introduction here, and the announcement that he intends to give a series of lectures on different cities in Italy will be welcome news to all who have heard him lecture before on subjects connected with foreign travel.

...their number as coach for the candidates for the freshman crew. This duty is at present performed by the captain and coxswain of the '92 eight, men who, from the nature of the case are too inexperienced to coach others in the best manner, and who themselves need the advice of experienced oarsmen. To retrieve the honor of Harvard in rowing matters, '92 must put a winning crew upon the river next spring, and no legitimate means towards this end should be omitted. Let Harvard's competent oarsmen, therefore, see to it that '92 enjoys from now on the advantages...
