...training this fall, was put in at bow yesterday, and DuBois was moved from bow to Glidden's place at 3. Although Morris is a very good oar, any change at so late a date tends to make the crew considerably slower. The race is sure to be well contested and is likely to be won or lost in the last quarter of a mile. The second crews are very evenly matched. The drawing for courses resulted in the Second Weld crew's getting the place next to the Beacon street wall, with the Second Newell, First Weld, and First...
...sure that the number bears an exceedingly small proportion to the total number issued. The accusation that some of the players and coaches have sold their tickets to speculators is probably without foundation. When we consider that undergraduates have all been offered good prices for their tickets, it speaks well for their sense of honor that so few of them have yielded. It was hoped that the large number of seats constructed around the field would effectually check speculation, and to that end the management deliberately put money into seats it did not expect to sell. Under the circumstances...
...best story in the number is "The Downfall of Sherlock Holmes," by H. Ward '00. In clever imitation of Conan Doyle's style, the writer narrates an incident which has no part in the memoirs of the "great detective." Throughout, the story is well sustained, and, moreover, it shows a sureness of touch and a power over detail. The movement is swift and the plot is seemingly original. "A Journey's End," by C.F.C. Arensberg '01 is a conventional love story which contains some rather skilfully arranged dialogue. In "The Policeman," A. H. Gilbert '01, attempts a sympathetic treatment...
...about the time taken from regular work, and about the method of winning games. The deception and brutality which once seemed an inevitable accompaniment of the games have given place to reasonably fair dealings, especially among the older universities. The games promise to become lessons in honorable conduct as well as in the development and care of the body. Not that we have reached the ideal, for there are still distressing lapses, but that the friends of intercollegiate sports have good reason to feel encouraged. The improvements have been accomplished by organization, rules, and mutual agreement among groups of colleges...
...practice and the usual line-up against the second. Every effort was made to put dash into the play, and to develop the team work and interference. The results of these efforts appeared in the scoring of the second touchdown by Reid, when all the gains were made by well-executed plays into the line. Hallowell placed his punts better, and Sawin succeeded in kicking an easy goal from the field. Burnett missed two tries for goal from the forty-five and thirty-five yard lines respectively...
