Occasionally there has been some misunderstanding by class captains of the rules which govern the inter-class base ball games. The rules for this year, which we publish elsewhere, seem clear enough; and we hope that the class captains will get a thorough understanding of them. A strict following of the rules will go far towards making the whole series successful...

...affairs of the Foxcroft Club at present seem to be most flourishing. In the early part of the year considerable dissatisfaction was expressed, and the wisdom of the management's administration was questioned. Whatever trouble there was-if any at all-was satisfactorily settled and affairs put in good shape for the new officers to take up their work. Since they have had affairs in charge, the club has made another distinct advance in prosperity. Since the first of January, the price of board has twice been lowered. Moreover, during this time, the membership has increased ten per cent...

...crew has been changed about a good deal of late, hardly rowing in the same order two days in succession. Saturday the crew was arranged with: Stroke, Captain Thompson; 7, Waters; 6, Glidden; 5, Saltonstall; 4, S. Williams; 3, Bond; 2, Loring; bow, Johnson. The men in many ways seem to be falling to pieces.

There must be a decided improvement soon if the crew...

...even though our track and gymnasium athletics seem to be in no danger, it is a matter of great regret that the winter meetings are falling away; and every means should be taken to revive them. It was with this object of centering the interest that the H. A. A. cut down the number of meetings to two. Some, however, say that this was merely a step towards the final abolishment of the meetings; and that it is only a question of time before the end comes. We are loath to believe this. Though our meetings cannot...

...would seem, on first thought, that such a decided falling off in interest would surely counteract our success in track and field athletics. The facts, however, do not warrant such an assumption. Never has our success been greater than in the past year or two, and our prospects for the future seem equally bright. The natural suggestion, then, might be that the cause which has killed the interest in our meetings has also kept up the general success in the athletics. It seems to us that, as a matter of fact, such is the case; and that this cause...
