...student enterprises we feel sure have been so wholly beneficial in their influence as has the college reading room. It has certainly been a great convenience to many, and its loss will be seriously missed by those who have been wont to patronize it. The committee may have been somewhat hasty in deciding to give up the plan for its maintenance this year. It is true that due notice had been given that a certain amount of support would have to be pledged to prevent this decision, but we doubt if the students generally fully realized and appreciated the importance...
...gymnasium. It is to be hoped that, after foot-ball has ceased for the season, more men will be willing to train regularly. The crew are at present rowing without the slides and with stiff arms most of the time. The men are heavy, stocky and muscular, but somewhat stiff and awkward in their movements. The first eight are now rowing in the following order: Bow, Smith; 2, Lincoln; 3, Foote; 4 Delafield; 5, Ayer; 6, Borland (capt.); 7, Barnes; stroke. Harris.

It is still early to make just comparisons between the team of this year and that of last, and to judge of our chances of success this year. The eleven of this fall will be somewhat lighter than that of last. There is a great deal of fair material from which to draw for the vacant places on the team; that which is excellent is still wanting. The best points in the play of the eleven at present are the kicking of half backs...
...Harvard Cricket Team defeated the Lawrence C. C. at Lawrence yesterday by nine wickets. Perkins, Wyeth and Le Moyne batted very well for Harvard, while Marshall and Holthan did the best for Lawrence. The fielding and bowling of the Harvard team was very fine, although they were somewhat out of practice. The wicket keeping of Marshall of the Lawrence Club was particularly noticeable...
