...recent meeting of the Governing Board of the Union the following motion was passed: "Any one who takes and keeps a book from the Union Library shall be fined two dollars ($2); and unless this fine is paid and the book returned within a week he shall be suspended from all use of the Union during the pleasure of the Governing Board." It is hoped that the adoption of this rule will do away with the numerous offences of taking books from the library...
After years of uncertainty and struggle, as told in other columns this morning, the CRIMSON is now settled on a substantial business basis. Two objects are effected by the present organization: the board is able at the least labor and expense to turn out a paper, which, in its belief, is best fitted to the needs and good of the University; and a practical method has been evolved of securing efficient recruits from the incoming classes, and of assuring the promotion on the board of those men best fitted to carry on the policy of the paper...
From start to finish the positions on the CRIMSON are open to competition. The average board is composed of ten editors, who are chosen from a large number of candidates during four competitions--two Freshman year, and two Sophomore year.

Under the careful supervision of the managing editor each of the assistants takes entire charge of the paper two nights each week. He supervises the work...
...officers of the paper, the duties of a CRIMSON editor are not great. One Sophomore or Junior is chosen each year to cover football, one to cover baseball, and one for crew. Candidates are therefore excluded from these fields. Simple assignments must be covered by members of the board during the examination periods, when no candidates are at work. They must attend board meetings at intervals to discuss questions of policy, and must sign in the office every day, subject to fine for neglect to do so. The same penalty is imposed for failure to cover assignments and for absence...
