This issue of the Almanac is particularly interesting to Harvard men, as it devotes several pages to records of all the races of Harvard crews from 1865 to October 25, 1873.

The spleen of the writer, however, is evidently directed against a particular individual, and finds vent in numerous villifying and offensive personalities. In the same issue a would-be humorous article contains several coarse and vulgar jokes at the expense of the Courant board. Thus far our sympathy is with...
