...gone, there is universal mourning both by the faculty and the students. Nothing is more tragic than that a life should be cut off just as it was growing into its full vigor, when the powers that had been gathering for a score of years were making ready for actual work in the life of the world, when all had promise and the fulfillment seemed just beyond. Few years have passed since the University underwent similar suffering. It is such events as these that waken us from our wonted placid composure, and thrust home upon us the real significance...
...work of the CRIMSON is done under limitations. The editors have many other demands on their time and energy, and the resources of the paper are by no means professional. Limitations mean imperfections, and, in consequence, the ideal CRIMSON and the actual CRIMSON are necessarily apart.

In November he may be required, in addition to this, to go through signals for a half-hour in the morning, and, towards the end, in the evening also. It is easy to see that the actual time occupied is, therefore, far from excessive. But during the last fortnight before the great game the football man will become more or less wrapped up in his fancies of victory or defeat. Up to this time the player, in distinction from the captain, has had few worries. He has been...
