...rowed much during the recess. Keyes was injured so that the crew was broken up, and it did not seem best to attempt much at this time. The order of the men is the same as before the recess...
...freshman musical clubs deserve a word of highest praise for the public spirited way in which they have set to work to help their crew. They seem to have realized what an important and beneficent factor they can become in giving the crew sufficient support to allow it to go to New London, and they have decided to make their help as great as possible.

Strange as it may seem, there is at present in college very little active enthusiasm in gymnasium athletics, such as contests on the flying rings, parallel bars, and the like. What interest there is in this kind of sport is good, but it is confined to a very small circle. One of the best ways to broaden this interest...
