...unity among students, and as an aid to the Athletic Committee in making unnecessary the kind of curtailment to which we are all opposed. We must discuss and vote intelligently; but let no unfortunate demonstration come between us and the happy solution that appears to be in sight. The CRIMSON cannot urge too strongly the necessity of an unanimous expression in this matter and an attendance at the meeting that will leave no doubt of the students' interest in helping bring to a satisfactory close a situation that so closely affects their interests...
...predicted in yesterday's CRIMSON, the famous College daily won the annual meet of the I. P. A. A. A. by the startling score of 38 1-2 to 32 1-2. The Lamp-on was second, but the Advocate and Monthly followed the dope and failed to connect with the scorer.

The committee in charge of the American contingent to the Olympic games were on hand as announced, and enlisted several of the journalists for the trip to London...

If nominations are made by competition it is not likely that the class will...
Despite the plastic and fluvid condition of the earth's surface and the aquacious essence prevalent in the air yesterday the CRIMSON and the Lampoon valiantly matched their skill at the national game. The scene was one of delicate picturesqueness,--the contestants decked out in gala attire, and the vast concourse of onlookers displaying ostentatiously their brilliant outing costumes. The umpire was at times whimsical and at the third inning called the game on account of dampness. But nothing daunted the two teams and they played on amid cataract and slough. At the end of the game the special delegates...
