With this morning's issue the CRIMSON is enlarged by the addition of another sheet. The change is made to meet the pressure of news matter which comes during the spring with the rapid increase in the activities of the University. As often as this pressure is felt, the extra sheet will be used. It is in view of the greater work demanded of the editors by the enlargement, that the present special election was held. This election is intended in no way as a precedent, the CRIMSON still adhering to its policy of regular semi-annual elections...
Professor F. B. Crocker spoke last night before the Harvard Engineering Society on "The Exactness of Electrical Engineering." The popular idea that electrical science was in its infancy is very erroneous, in Professor Crocker's opinion. That electrical engineering is an exact science is proved by the rapid strides which it has taken of late years; for no practical science could advance so energetically unless there was a close relation between its theory and practice...

But when the apparently dull pupil has once mastered the elements of the language, then the progress is rapid, the Chinaman soon takes up the Bible, and well prepared by patient love of his teacher, he is readily led to grasp the truths of the Christian religion...

Both of Cornell's touchdowns were accidental, the result of stopped punts, and might have been avoided had the backs shown better judgment...
...took their first row today. As between Columbia and Harvard, the latter is rowing the better. Even "Bob" Cook told me that the Columbia freshman crew is the "worst freshman crew" he ever saw. Still, their stroke, Pierrepont is an excellent oar and their improvement may be more rapid than Harvard '97, whose crew today was rowing in very fair form. Hollister, by the way, has been put back in the boat at No. 2 in place of Sleeper...
