...given in another column, from which it will be seen that the meeting may, on the whole, be called a very successful one. The number of spectators was large, including about two hundred ladies. The standing high jump was better by nearly two inches than any previous amateur record, and the performance on the horizontal bar much superior to anything that has been witnessed here, for several years at least.

Those Harvard men who happened to be present at the Columbia Boat Club sports of January 3 and 4 will doubtless remember that Mr. Voorhees, with a handicap of 2 yards, won the 75-yard dash for college men in 7 1/5 seconds...

...unfair light in which the journals placed the matter before the public. We cannot repeat too often to those who are not acquainted with the &Phi. B. K. Society that the character of its members is above reproach for quietness and orderly conduct, and we are glad to record the reprimand passed by the Police Commissioners upon the uncalled-for brutality of the officer. In future, it may teach policemen to distinguish between gentlemen and roughs, in their attempts to keep, the peace...
