Owing to the congestion of their present quarters, the Naval Radio School at the University has decided to erect from 25 to 30 temporary buildings, probably on Cambridge Common. Contrary to statements made in yesterday's papers, no increase in the number of students attending the school is contemplated. Lieutenant-Commander Nathaniel F. Ayer '00, commandant, aims only to provide, through, these new buildings, more adequate living accommodations and better facilities for the instruction of the students. It is planned to house approximately 188 of the 3974 now enrolled in the school in the new camp. The present plan...

Duggan '20 are tested distance runners. L. B. Evans '20, C. R. Larrabee '19, J. F. Linder '19 and F. F. Williams '20 may be depended upon in the sprints, and C. F. Batchelder '20 in the weights...
...Both Yale and Princeton intend to do the boost they can with the facilities that exist in order to build up a crew, and with good sport as a guiding star, to enter as many events as is compatible with economy and the endurance of the oarsmen. The crews will probably not have a formal training table, although supervision of food will be given, and work in military science and rowing on alternate days will take care of the men's condition...
