...facilities for education at Amherst are excellent. The college takes a particular pride in its large collection of plaster casts of ancient and modern sculpture which is second to none in the United States except the one in Boston. For this museum of fine art the college is indebted to Professor Richard H. Martin, who started the collection in 1874, and has been untiring in his efforts to enlarge it ever since. The chemical laboratory is not up to the modern standard, but in all the other departments of learning, ample opportunity is offered for work. The faculty. under President...
...already long. Carelessness is no doubt the cause of the delay, but whether there has been carelessness or not, the matter should be attended to at once. Either cups should not be promised or they should be given. It hurts athletics in general, it hurts each delinquent organization in particular to have victorious teams go unrewarded.

...this has goue no further than the acceptance of board, travelling expenses, and perhaps a money allowance for incidentals. Present players on various college teams-in Princeton. Yale, and Harvard alike-have accepted such pecuniary advantages. But in other cases it has included the acceptance of money for playing particular games, the acceptance of a salary for teaching athletics, and the practice of athletics for a livelihood. According to the invariable practice of amateur organizations in England and America, any one of the three acts last named debars the person concerned from further participation in amateur sports...
