...club captains steadily advocates making the fours the principal crews, instead of the sixes. We strongly suspect that his eagerness in this matter springs from the feeling that his club is sure of four good men, but that it is difficult to secure for them two adequate supporters. It is scarcely necessary to give warning against a policy so evidently short-sighted and retrograde...
...information reaches us a little indirectly, but we dare say that the statement, coming from such high authority, is in the main correct. We do not, however, remember any past Commencement when the whole class performed, so we are led to suspect that this is a new device which the "tyrants and oppressors" - the Faculty - have conspired to "spring" upon us this year, and that their wicked plot has leaked out upon the prairies of Illinois.

...Record devotes five columns to the recent foot-ball game.

Therefore they "proceeded to attitudinize in a peculiarly enticing manner...
...belief, does not occupy an enviable position. He is treated civilly, for hardly anybody can afford to cut him, but the whole world laughs at him behind his back. Now I don't happen to know your friend Smith, but from your account of him I strongly suspect that he is a brother of my old classmate, of whom you have often heard me speak. He had a great deal more money than he knew what to do with; and, as a natural consequence, he patronized the best (i. e. most expensive) tradesmen that he could find. His clothes were...
