...could be best conducted under the rules of the English "Commons," they were justified in using its rules. When we Americans have grown wise and prosperous by adopting the best ideas and customs of other nations, it is not strange that our University men, students of history, should be quick to accept whatever foreign ways seem better than our own. If the CRIMSON teaches - and it sometimes seems to teach - that we are to follow what is American because it is American, it certainly opposes the spirit of this most American University...
While the students of the college are quick to take advantage of the lectures given here by non-residents, and generally manage to attend the evening readings given by our own professors and instructors, there was an example of neglect on last Friday which calls for remark. One of the instructors in English kindly consented to give a four o'clock lecture on the subject of descriptive and narrative writing, to which were invited all members of the classes of '87 and '88.

The Pierian made one safety before time was called for a rest. In the second half the Glee Club made a touchdown and the Pierian three safeties. Score, 30 to 0. The men all seemed to enjoy themselves very much. Wood and Hillebrand especially distinguished...
...freshmen now paused to take breath, while the upperclassmen employed the interval in offering suggestions as to the best way of running the meeting. "Three cheers for Vassar" were requested, but the freshmen failed to respond. The class now took under consideration the athletic portion of its ticket. In quick succession Messrs. F. S. Goodwin, Boston Latin School, L. H. Morgan, St. Mark's, and G. T. Keyes, Nichols' Private School, were elected to the captaincies of the eleven, nine, and crew. The meeting now declared itself adjourned, and proceed to carry the adjournment into effect by making its exit...
