  THE YALE CAMPUS, ThorDe Wins at Tenn6s- Harvard Beaten in Fo0tball-yAfess Last Vtc- tory-Last Evens1g’S Praise Service. The Banner viii soon be published. It is said that 1t is to be the finest we have ever soon. The small library has been enlarged during the last few weeks by about one hundred and fifty volumes. Several college men have tried to be made voters here. It is interesting to know that the votes of the committee alternate between to and to 4. The proper thing to do is to have committee composed of men who comprise the whole number of parties includ- ing, of course, Belva Lockwood’s company; then there would be more hope of success. The contest between Knapp and Thorne at tennis came of Saturday afternoon. The combined effect of high wind and leaves blown Ser the ground made the playing eOmpafatively unsatisfactory, as the players were not sure of their hits. Thorne won the three games; scores, to g. 6 to B., 6 to ?. The University of Pennsylvania, which issued an edict last year to the effect that, as no college accepted it’s challenge to row. it was champion of the American colleges, has lately distinguished itself by defeating liar yard in football on her own grounds with a score of 4 to 0. The University football team played with the Dartmouth eleven on Saturday at Hano- yer, New Hampshire. The score was 115 to in Yales favor. The freshman eleven also won victory over the team of Amherst ‘S0 with e score of 58 to O. The praise service given in BatteIl chapel last evening was as great success as usual. The hymns selected were sung with great spirit and earnestness. The double quartette from the choir sang selection with admira- ble effect Mir. Frank Strong, ’84, favored the audience with solo rendered with his fine voice and rare talent which needs no recommendation. Dr. Barbour made the short address usually given at these services. The chapel was full to overfowing, and all seemed to enjoy the programme of music. Louis K. Hull, ’83, who has distinguished himself as an oarsman, will make his first pearance on the stump at Westville this evening, when all the weight of MT. Hulls opinion will be cast for Cleveland. The New York Times says that Yales champion clog dancer of last year has be- come divinity student.
