We are indebted to A. L. Frost for a program of the sec ond annual mecting'of the American Economic Association, to be held in Boston from May 21st to 26th.

They speculate upon what a grand time they would hav2 Tiad, bad it been fair weather, judging from the time they did bavc. Two of the most brilliant members of the class of '87 were so disgusted with the lack of spirit in the class that they for mally withdrew and handed in written petitions to be admit ted to '89. However, they are debnred from this class be cause they failed to pass in the French "verbs which were re repuired by '89 for admission. The Journal boys have twice tried the University mettle within the last week, Tuesday to the tune of 28 to 4 and Thursday 22 to 15, in our favor.
