Anything buttan exciting game was played on Jarvis Saturday afternoon. Brilliant plays, save by one or two men, were the exception and not the rule. '88 won the toss and choose the goal towards Oxford street. As soon as play was begun the ball was passed to Morgan, who rushed it down the field and into the hands of Porter, he in return kicking it back half the length of the field. '88 quickly made a touch-down. The ball was punted out for a fair catch and a try at goal made, which failed. A bad fumble was made...

Every commencement time has become, under the habit of bestowing honorary degrees, a time not of recognizing merit and rewarding it, but an occasion for an undignified attempt to increase the influence of a college by giving men, eminent in other departments than in learning, titles which are properly...
