The meeting of the freshman class to hear the reports of the secretary and of the manager of the football eleven took place last evening. The meeting was called to order by President Trafford at 8.40 with about one hundred and fifty men present. After the report of the secretary had been read and accepted, F. W. Moore, the manager of the eleven, read a report showing the financial condition of the team. The statement was as follows: 'Receipts; from Exeter game, $20; from Andover game, $15; from Yale game, $125; from subscriptions to December 30, $623; total receipts $783. Expenses; trip to Exeter, $38.92; to Andover $23 30; to New Haven $247.32; uniforms $168; training-table (16 men) $136.05; other expenses $114.31; total expenses $727.90. There was thus an excess of receipts over expenditures of $55.10. Of this sum $5.10 had been given to the graduate treasurer, as the class was allowed to retain only $50. The report was accepted. It was moved and voted that the surplus of $50 be devoted to the purchase of cups for the eleven, and Messrs. Moore, Barlow and Tripp were appointed by the chair a committee for buying the cups. The petition for the reconsideration of the punishment of C. K. Cummings was discussed, and a blue book for those of the class who have not already signed the petition will be left at the Auditor's desk in Memorial.
