...Harvard team has planned out a scheme of work for the year. Owing to the regular system of class and apparatus work which will be given the team under the personal instruction of Mr. Dohs, a very large number of men have handed in their names. J. P. Jones '02 has been appointed manager, and efforts are being made to arrange dates for exhibitions and competitions...
...number of the Lampoon which will appear this evening is not up to the standard of the last issue, but, nevertheless, it contains some very good pieces. It is perhaps too reminiscent of football. The "By the Way," which is better than usual, and the centre page, a well executed and fitting sequel to the centre page of the "Football Number," express very adequately the present dissatisfaction in regard to football.

...16th century. The collection will probably be placed either in the new Engineering Building or in Sever Hall. The plan of erecting such a museum was conceived in March, 1897, when investigation showed that the increased interest in German courses made such an institution advisable. At present the large number of students in the German Department have no opportunity for study and research such as will be offered by the proposed museum...
