...increase, and numerous claims have been made on the ground available for courts, so that our fields are now closely scored. The distribution of these courts is remarkable. They lie at every angle with each other and at all points of the compass. Occupancy of the ground is the whole law, and possession is ill-defined. It is to be hoped that the Tennis Association will revive sufficiently to take some action in regard to the occupancy of courts and the terms of possession. Some equitable rules should be drawn up to govern the distribution of courts, and to bring...

...Michigan in this statement as also representative of Western colleges of mediocre stamp, as the Review would seem to wish to have us do. That would be manifestly absurd, and we refuse to be cajoled into such a course, even by the staid Review. The Review treats of this whole question with so much patriotic ardor and industry and so much native vigor of style, that we are, after all, inclined to admire its work, even though it be done at our own expense.

...responded to with liberality. It is necessarily merely an experiment for the rest of this year; and if, by the neglect of those for whose benefit it was undertaken, it should fail, its failure would carry with it the failure of the association, and the probable abandonment of the whole organization. For the sake, therefore, of preserving this institution, whose full value to themselves even they would realize to their cost if it should be removed, these men should come back to the hall at once. The directors have done their best, the corporation have done their best, the steward...

...meet their opponents on home ground surrounded by ardent supporters and fellow-collegians. We hope that the managers of the freshman nine will appreciate this fact and act accordingly. There is good material for an excellent nine, and we are sure that our contributor reiterates the sentiments of the whole college when he expresses an urgent desire to see the freshmen victorious...
