The season of thesis preparation is especially hard on cats. One senior who has selected an anatomical subject boasts the slaughter already of six felines, and yet his thesis is not finished. [Cornell News.

Dartmouth entrance examinations will be held this year at Chicago and other distant cities. The trustees have lately received from the sophomore class the beginning of a permanent loan fund for needy students.

The Student thinks "that a comparison of the scores will show that the fielding has thus far as a rule been poor among all the nines. On the batting, Harvard has been most successful, while the most effective pitching has been done by Jones of Yale."

The Yale Courant encourages its freshman nine as follows: "Because the freshman nine was unfortunate in two of its games with the consolidated, a great deal of adverse criticism has been bestowed upon it, and perhaps justly, but the class should remember that no such pitcher will probably be encountered on freshman nines, that the nine hits hard, and that hard work, faithful training and good management are doing all that can be done."
