...would be a most kind and enjoyable thing if some or all of our instructors would make it a point to teach a few of the students the observances of proper decorum in recitations. Those friends who begin to pack up their books and "grab" for their hats some three or four minutes before the close of the hour might learn a little forbearance if the instructor should do likewise and make a rush for the door even before he had completed the last sentence of his lecture. However this expedient might prove futile...
Yesterday's hare and hounds hunt was the longest and best conducted one which has taken place this season. The two hares, Dana, '88 and Davenport, '90, left the steps of Matthews at 3.30 o'clock and were followed ten minutes later by a pack of about thirty hounds. After doubling twice on their track, the hares started up Brattle street, and then crossed over to Mt. Auburn street where there was a clear cut until Watertown was reached. Here the hares started cross country, over half ploughed fields, full of rocks and stubble. At this point some...
...hares, A. C. Baldwin, '90, and J. D. Gorham, '90, won in yesterday's run. They arrived home at 4.42, having followed a circuitous course around Tufts College.

Great dissatisfaction was expressed by the hounds at the poor trail laid. If a protest, signed by three-fourths of the hounds is presented to the H. A.

...prevalent at Bates. Such an operation may do for gamblers and black legs, but for honest, intelligent young men, it is not the thing. It may do for the starved in soul and intellect, but college students should find some amusement better fitted to their station than shuffling a pack of greasy cards. - Ex. And this too, from a Western college paper...
Unusual interest has been taken in the hare and hounds' run this fall. Six regular hunts have been held under the auspices of the H. A. A., and all of them have been successful and enjoyable. Over twenty hounds have formed the pack each time, and the almost entire absence of so-called professionals has given every runner a fair chance to win a cup for himself. An occasional rainy Tuesday made a postponement necessary, but with this exception there has been no serious set back until the present snowstorm, which make further runs impossible...
