...janitor will have the right in case of the new tenants, who take possession of their rooms for the first time this year, to do the work for them such as is now done by the so-called 'College men,' consisting generally of blacking boots, making fires, carrying coal and water, doing errands, etc., if these tenants employ any one to do such work...

...minutes time was called, Adams being victorious by two goals to one goal and two touch-downs. For the winners Woodward (capt.), Adams, and Rockwell played well, and for '82 Leatherbee, Thatcher, and Manning. It is hoped another game can be arranged between these two teams; but let '82 take warning at this game, and be out to practise more regularly, or she may be beaten by a blue of a lighter shade than the Adams blue, which she would not, perhaps, appreciate...

...going to the theatre, and do not care to dine in town, avoid all cars before half past seven, for the men who take these want to get to the theatre before the play begins, - a thing quite unendurable to any fellow of taste. You will meet more of your own style between half past seven and eight than at any other hour. The cars after this hour you will not, I hope, find it often necessary...
