...does on their excellence in their mental and physical capacities. Laying aside the respect due to their instructors, which is apparently of trifling importance to some, the annoyance it gives to those members of the class who wish to get some benefit out of what is said, ought to deserve some consideration. Good will and good feeling demand that. We would beg, therefore, those who show their appreciation of the Lecture by the exercise of their feet and not of their brains, to give a little better chance to those who wish - foolishly perhaps - to exercise their brains...

...certainly a desirable thing to have a single-scull race for the championship of the two colleges, and there could be no better time for it than the week of the University race at New London. If any decision in this matter is to be reached this summer it ought to be made at once, to enable the contestants to make the necessary preparations. As Mr. Livingston has taken the first step, it is only fair for his college to support him, and we understand that if a formal challenge is received from Yale it will be favorably considered...
