...other organizations The result of this has been an inconsistent and weak attitude on the part of the college as a whole. Now, however, all the associations have decided to stand together, and use their united influence in negotiating an agreement with Yale. In frequent meetings during the past few weeks the officers have exchanged their views, and agreed upon a common policy, which all the delegates will know and support. Such a union of interests cannot fail to give the most dignified attitude to the college, as well as to secure an arrangement with Yale which will be most...
...reserve book department. Students in the various courses are often directed to the reserve shelves for books which they cannot find upon application, at the library, and this, although the reading room catalogue shows that the books in question are at least nominally on the reserve shelves. In the past this misplacement or misappropriation of books has been attributed to students. No doubt the fault does he largely at their door, not wholly, however, as recent events have shown. Instructors as well as students are sometimes the offenders. The right of instructors to the use of reserve books is clearly...
After the dinner a number of speeches were made. Professor A. M. Wheeler was introduced as a representative of the university.

Harvard has a class of special students which seems to be a sort of feeder for the advanced classes-a short cut to the senior class, in fact...
...work on the new athletic building on Holmes Field has progressed very rapidly during the past three weeks. The ball cage is ready for occupancy and by the end of the week the work on the rowing tank will have been completed. The boat has been placed in its position in the center of the tank and the oars are being fitted in their positions. Over the ball cage half of the roof is of glass and the glaziers are at present fitting the last panes. Much of the rubbish which partly fills the cage will be removed within...
...Shearman, Yale '89, who has been taking a post graduate course at Yale, has recently left college. For the past four years Shearman has been a prize winner at the intercollegiate games and this year Yale expected him to win the pole vault and the broad jump. With Sherrill in the dashes and Elcock in the hammer and shot contests, Yale was thought to have a good chance for five firsts. Now, however, the prospect is not so bright, as Carey of Princeton will prove a formidable opponent in the dashes, and as Janeway of Princeton has recently beaten Elcock...
