ub- for the DY 'te Il.. k. 8 3. O y str. JoHN'scoLLnerAN. n Q26 Rev. James H. Turner, Glossbrenner V. Yonce, Frank G. Turner, John G. Binford and Henry H. Hanger. The college will confer the degrees of bachelor of arts, master of A arts, bachelor of science, bachelor of liter- ature, bachelor of music and doctor of philosphy. ' The Senior Co-eds., asthe young ladies at the University of Michigan are colled, have created a mild sensa- tion this year in calico or other cheap dresses. This determination is laud- able enough in itself, but it is the more praiseworthy in that it is the intention of the young women to de- vote the money thus saved to the Co-eid Gymnasium Fund. 4 y .- At the recent' annual meeting of the' Associationfor the Advancement of Physical' culture, at New- York representatives from a gi-eat, many colleges and seminaries were present, anxious to investigate the latest .dis- coveries anddevelopments in Physi- cal study. A new game for women called Newcourt, was explained. It is amixture of the elements of foot- ball and tennis, an dit is thought will soon become very popular with women. -It resembles 'tennis in the manner in which the playing lines are laid out. The regulation football is used, but it is not kicked, the hands only being used. The scoring re- sembles football in the obtaining of points by touchdowns and goals., . I' l A crawler X 1 gf Z X .

X '.et v - A The Lfzsell Leaves again comes to us with its bright and interesting matter. Among the best of its articles is that entitled Manito. A The Wake Forest Stuflemf well maintains the high standard it has set up. 'Its matter is of a character that makes it a most pleasing college journal to read. its departments are well arranged and conducted. Mil- ton's Conception of the Universe is an excellent treatise, the subject being ably handled. The May number of the Riclwnonfl Ilfessenger contains a very forcible editorial entitled College versus Non-Collegef' It is a subject which many' people undertake to discuss without facts to go upon. This Ilfessevzger alsohas a very good essay upon Acquisition or Separation- The Destiny of our County. r In closing our remarks for this volume of the COLLEG-IAN a retro- spective view is a pleasure to us. Our table has been graced by many exchanges during the course of the year. Many of them are the very best exponents of college journalism, some for outranking others in excel- lence of style, material and make up.
