THERE seems to have been some misunderstanding among the students in regard to the number of marks necessary for a degree. That an average of 50 per cent must be obtained for the whole course, and that the average for Senior year must be 50 per cent, all know. But many students have been in doubt whether it was necessary to obtain this mark on each study, or whether a general average was all that was required.

This year every person who draws a room and signs an agreement must pay the whole rent himself, whether he uses the room or not, and he cannot transfer the room to any one else, or allow any other student to occupy it.

By means of the new regulations we may look forward to a more just division of vacant rooms this year. As the number of applicants will...

...should be no Freshman race, no single-scull contest, no athletic sports, no base-ball match, no regatta promenade, no glee-club concert; 'side-shows' of every name and description should be absolutely prohibited. In abandoning the unwieldy National Rowing Association, Yale and Harvard should abandon with it the whole 'tournament' theory. In place of a long-drawn 'week of athletic sports,' they should offer the public a single short, sharp, and decisive University boat-race. Simply that and nothing more...

...their approbation of it by much laughter and applause, - and Boston audiences are supposed to be au fait in such matters; but it seems as though it would have been a cause of much delight to the undergraduate mind had the young woman who sustained the part lumped the whole thing, so to speak, and by taking the entire bottle at one draught, converted herself into an infant in a much shorter space of time, and not prolonged the agony by dragging it through five scenes. The scene where she appeared as a romping school-girl of fifteen...
