...college courses unless he succeeded in making the old "Union" or "Forum," the rival debating societies for the three upper classes. In the latter case, he was usually unable to debate before the club more than three or four times during the year. Furthermore, the rivalry between the clubs seldom showed itself in inter-club debates...

...weak at times, Bowdoin making many gains through the centre of the line by a formation somewhat resembling the old revolving wedge, in which tackle carried the ball through a hole made in the other side of the line. The gains thus made were not successive, however, and seldom of any considerable length. Harvard's line although showing increased ability to open up holes, in its interference was not effective enough, and the runner, in breaking through, failed in many cases to follow the interference designated by the signals. Few substitutes were played and the game was marked...

...much criticism. History shows that Ruskin was probably mistaken in this respect. Ruskin's philosophy of art in "Modern Painters," will in the main, however, be found entirely sound though overstatements, and even errors are not wanting.

...mile and a half course on Lake Quinsigamond Saturday afternoon, winning out by three boat lengths. Time, 8 minutes. From the start the Freshmen had little difficulty in pulling away from the school crew, who rowed a short, hurried stroke of 40 or more to the minute. The Freshmen seldom exceeded 31. The conditions for the race were most favorable, as only a slight breeze was blowing...

...Freshman nine was defeated in a well played game yesterday afternoon by the Cambridge High and Latin School, by a score of 4 to 0. The chief cause of the defeat was poor batting by the entire team; but one hit was made, and the ball was seldom knocked out of the infield. Coonley, who pitched, has had little practice, but did fairly well and with good support would probably have won his game. Neither Bartlett nor Marean caught satisfactorily, both throwing poorly and dropping many pitched balls. Foster, at first base, was also weak in fielding and at times...
