...excitement of the spectators. Rushline tricks and signals which are enigmatic to opposing sides are next reviewed. Professor Johnston then speaks of the advantages of the training, which 'has enabled the players to show courage, constancy, an intelligent willingness to meet and defeat physical dangers and an ability to think connectedly in the presence of physical dangers, to an extent offered by no other form of exercise.' The game that presents such an array of purely scientific and courageous features cannot fail to merit the most universal sanction and approval, and yet newspaper criticism doubtless caused the 'general disposition...
...that the freshmen class meeting would take place this evening, but,as was the case last year, the faculty decided that, in order to prevent the consequences of a rush, the meeting should occur in the afternoon. This is probably a sore disappointment to many of the sophomores, who think they have an a priori right to enjoy a little fun with the freshmen on the night of the first classmeeting.

Little boys should be seen and not heard, and not seen too much either...
...changing the marking system, they have demanded that every man in college shall obtain a yearly average of 60 per cent., instead of 50? And this, in face of the fact that the rigorously-minded instructors have not departed one jot or one tittle from their ancient rigor. I think I may safely say that I voice the opinion of the majority of the students (not that the majority have been dropped), when I urge that, if we must cling to the new marking system, the letter D be made to mean a mark from forty per cent. to fifty...
