...varsity practice yesterday afternoon was not very encouraging as the playing was very loose and uneven and the men, with a few exceptions, did not seem to enter into the spirit of the game, in spite of the fact that they were coached to be energetic. There were several important changes made in the positions of the men and this may in some degree account for the general poor playing. The elevens lineup as follows...
...much more agreeable if some effort had been made toward ventilation in the room. We have often referred before to this apparently trifling subject of fresh air and comfort in the class room and at lectures, and while some of our large halls are poorly arranged for ventilation, it seems as if better arrangements could be made for the comfort of such a large audience as was present last night.

...would seem that in so large a University, and when there is so much at stake, that more men should be willing to enter.

There are also very fully illustrated articles on 'The Republic of Venezuela' and 'The City of Denver.' The verse of the number is by Madison Cawein...
...often said that the tendency of a Harvard education is to make men believers in Free Trade. This does not seem true. Of the 1619 students graduating in the years 1885-92, 1430 expressed party preference, 49.8 per cent. were Republican 25.5 Democratic and 24.7 per cent. independent. Of 153 graduates of Harvard, who have held high office in State or National Government, 114 may fairly be classed as believers in the principles of the Republican party, and 39 in those of the Democrats...
