...Crew-Book is out at last - and a very attractive little volume it is. It is very prettily gotten up in a crimson cover, with "Rah, 'Rah, 'Rah, 'Rah, '89" on the outside.

The enthusiasts in this branch of sport, we are sorry to record, are mighty scarce in Princeton. Our record has degenerated, until now we are at the very bottom of the list of colleges. This fact, in addition to the cold water thrown on field sports by the supporters of base-ball and lacrosse, makes doubly difficult the effort to revivify the interest in the sport. We have no men of great promise...
