...mile run is especially worth the effort, as we have men who seem capable of success in this event if trained and pushed for it. In several other events we shall probably bring out some strong contestants, whose success in any one instance would prove gratifying. '85 is an unknown factor as yet in these calculations, and all look to her with the greatest interest in the coming in-door athletic games this month, and upon the training field when spring opens...
...Professor Clapp in the last Nation, who believes election in one necessarily implies election in the other) is a question perhaps beyond our powers to determine.

...press a letter slandering Williams in a most ungenerous manner. Great indignation is felt here among faculty and students, and must everywhere be felt among the alumni and friends of the college against Mr. Chadbourne for this action.
