...condition of things has not been changed in the least, and we have the same old picture of a group of shivering men in the bathroom waiting sometimes as long as a quarter of an hour to get a chance to use the shower-bath. During the winter months the gymnasium is used much more than at the other seasons of the year, and while during the spring and fall the shower-bath may answer all purposes, it certainly does not now. The room ought to be enlarged, or the addition of a shower bath built on the rear...
...Princeton's outlook is very favorable, unless Harvard develops an exception ally strong team. By the graduation of Hodge, Church, Blackwell, Talcott, Nicholson and Bliss, two places on the attack, two on the defence, and goal and coverpoint are left open. The men have been practicing all fail and winter, as long as the weather permitted, and have played quite a number of games. In these games Browning, '89, Uebelacker, '89, Voorhes, '90, Taylor, '89, Chapin, '90, Payne, '91, and Minor. '90, filled the vacant places.

Mr. Lowe was formerly instructor of fencing at the Montreal Athletic Club, and also at the Toronto Fencing Club, and is undoubtedly a thorough teacher of the French method. Several men are expected to enter the fencing lists at the winter meetings, and some very good work may be looked...
...Roxbury Latin School Athletic Association hold their winter sports on February 22, in the M. I. T. Gymnasium, and this year the management have decided to give prizes in three open handicap events. This is quite an innovation but they mean to make it a successful one if possible. The sports come on a holiday so that a large crowd is hoped for. The contests in the closed events, especially in sparring, have in previous years, always been interesting, though not very scientific, and this year with the added attraction of the open events, for which several Harvard men have...
