...annual financial drive was made from February 11 to 17 by three competing teams composed of Sophomores under Junior captains. To this the returned members of the College and Graduate Schools responded generously with $3,036.58, which sum although $1,026.27 less than the collection of 1917-18, was very encouraging from a little more than half-filed University. It must be remembered, too, that the $1,698.76 taken in last fall was in large part given by the Harvard men in the S. A. T. C. Thus the total collection from the University for the year...
...Although the College was in the hands of the government, there was the usual rush at the beginning of the year and the library was accordingly open every day for about the first ten days after courses began regularly. During the rest of the year it has been opened three times a week, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The courses did not regularly begin until the tenth of October and the decrease of regular students at the College was tremendous, yet the total number of books issued was scarcely 100 less than the year before, a total of 497 being...
...fiction is concerned we are not disappointed. Mr. Kister, who, judged by his two stories, loves the tactual, tells his grim tale well. Mr. Davidson although we early guess half of the denouement of his romance, nevertheless surprises us with the other half, and throughout the whole tale gives joyously vivid pictures of a West, not yet, we hope, wholly departed. His characters are alive, and the wind blows. In Balked Mr. Raffalovich burlesques certain modern fads, but such fads, even in burlesques, are worth neither the expenditure of Mr. Raffalovich's gifts nor the time of the paper maker...
...Although reports from other universities indicate that football practice will be more extensive than usual this spring, it is likely to be exceedingly limited at Yale. Dr. Alfred H. Sharpe, the new director at that university will not arrive there until mid-summer to take charge of the coaching and most of the candidates are out for the various spring teams. Dr. Sharpe has chosen, as assistant coaches, the same men who coached the Elis in 1916. No captain will be elected until after Dr. Sharpe takes charge of the squad and the playing season begins next fall...
...However, although as students of Professor Haskins we may appreciate the honor conferred on him, it is with grave concern that we stop to count up the number of prominent members of the Faculty who are still away from their posts at Harvard. Four are now serving as advisory members of the Peace Conference, where their services are hardly to be dispensed with, but many more are still engaged in work at Washington and may not return for many months. While deeply conscious of the invaluable services which they have performed during the war we feel that their continued absence...
