...School to the gaunt and bare rear walls of Hastings, which have not been given any, the Physical Laboratory and Thayer Hall, which would look handsomer, the deeper its natural hideousness were hidden from sight. The Law School is one of the few Harvard buildings that can stand scrutiny; and to cover up its walls with vines, especially the fine carved shield on its eastern wing, while the ugly architecture of the university is allowed to stand forth defiantly unveiled, seems to me a great mistake...
...cricket eleven met with their first defeat at Lowell on Saturday. They were unable to hit the swift bowling of Burns and Fairburn, and were put out for a total of 82. Brown carried his bat in the second inning for 25. Lowell made a good stand for 130, thus winning by an inning and 48 runs.

Harvard men are united in support of every particular, and will not weaken their position by yielding anything. If Yale holds out games must be arranged as best they can. In the interests of athletics we wish to see all matches continued, and have no doubt they will be, since dates have already been negotiated for base ball. There will be less satisfaction, however, in such temporary arrangements, which must after all be made practically according...
