...does the New Haven Register. Speaking of the race between the freshmen and the Scientific School in eight-oared boats, the New Haven correspondent of the Boston Journal says: "Contrary to all expectation, the freshmen won their race. The freshman coxswain, W. B. Goodwin of Biddeford, Me., will stand a good chance for university coxswain. He has had some experience at Exeter and weighs about one hundred pounds out of training. He steered remarkably well in yesterday's race. After the experience of last June, Yale will be glad to get a competent coxswain...

Even with but one instructor, a far larger number of students would find it much to their profit to make the most of the advantages now afforded in this branch...
...with the university at the time of its foundation, has lately been presented to the board of overseers by his descendant, Mr. Samuel Bridge, on condition that it be placed in the college grounds. The statue was designed and made in Europe, the pedestal upon which it is to stand being manufactured in this country. If the overseers and the donor can agree upon a site the statue will probably be unveiled the latter part of this month...
