...Butler is doubtless the expression of unthinking loyalty and perhaps even more of a desire to disprove the press statements that Columbia is a soothing hot bed of controversy." Yet its sane observation that "a law on the statute books is not so sacrosanct that one is forhidden to comment upon it or call attention to its shortcomings" contrasts pleasantly with the bitter personal arguments of Dr. Butler's attackers and defenders...
After those four years, any comment on the performance of the Chauve-Souris seems quite superfluous. Better typewriters than ours have rattled off their choicest superlatives in praise of the rotund personality of Balieff and the magnificently foolish or beautiful performance of his company. The fragments which have made up the repertory of Balieff's Chauve-Souris are by now the common property of all America.

A system of this sort is not injurious, moreover, because young reformers are as a rule mercifully preserved from a sight of their own more or less...
...much to strengthen the Second team, or to reduce the University squad to a more workable size, as it is to give the men a chance to improve with constant practice," Coach Slattery told a CRIMSON reporter last night when asked to comment on the latest cut of the University squad. "We are going to make numerous changes from one squad to the other and a player will have a much better chance to break into the University line-up if he has been playing every day, than he would if he were sitting on the bench...
