Herbert Jaques '11 talked on running last night at the Varsity Club, giving a comprehensive exposition of "the details that build up a track team." Among the topics that he treated are equipment, training as regards food, sleep, bathing, and light exercise, co-operation with the coach and with team-mates, running form and racing...

...Hall Tuesday evening, March 13, at 8 o'clock, instead of next Tuesday as previously announced. The production is under the auspices of the American-Scandinavian Foundation and the Scandinavian societies of Boston, which are co-operating in this undertaking in order to spread a knowledge of Norse literature among the people of Boston and to awaken an intellectual intercourse between Americans and the people of the Scandinavian countries. All profits from this performance to be given to the American Red Cross for hospital work in the United States, to show the attitude of Scandinavians in America toward their adopted...
