...CRIMSON regrets deeply to admit that error like a foul, cankerous growth crept unnoticed and uninvited into its editorial sanctum to contaminate, if not totally infect a comment labelled "Let Them See" in the issue of October 14. The exhortation to visual perception was hardly necessary. The H. A. A. is argus-eyed and the CRIMSON can claim no immunity from a righteous protest, To be brief, it has tilted with a windmill, bayed at the moon, shied at a clothes horse. In short, it is not true that undergraduates are included in the draw for football tickets...

Setting forth as he does this morning for the third time upon his annual periginations the Student Vagabond wishes to lay down at the very beginning his plan of campaign, the key, so to speak, to his cultural museum.

The course meetings which he notes may prove worthless to the visitor as far as the accumulation of any concrete knowledge; taken alone they may be hopelessly complex or fruitlessly general. Should they arouse inquisitiveness concerning the particular subject under discussion, however, or any tangential treatment value may be measured only with reference to futurities...

When the three reels of "Athletics at Harvard during the year 1926-1927" were shown recently at the Union before a hall jammed with students, the consensus of comment was that the athletes had made a noble and not unsuccessful attempt to redeem the University's histrionic prestige. The entire cast had the verve and spontaneity which comes only without rehearsal. Individual bits of skilful characterization and subtle nuance were too numerous commendation. Certainly the achievement of the football squad, even under the handicap of mere practice, contrasts sharply with the inability of the Dramatic Club's finest to gain...
