...remarkable or flawless bit of argument. We have always held that Harvard men should interest themselves in current problems, and Harvard men certainly know nothing about Socialism as a rule. Our most important reason for considering it, however, is that it seems to us that the danger of the movement lies only in the glamor that surrounds it. If this were removed the blind enthusiasm of the fanatic would fade into nothing, and the blind opposition of the conservative would die a natural death. Accordingly we welcome this publicity that Socialism has been striving for lately at the University...
...University hockey team will close its season with the deciding game of the Yale series in the Arena this evening at 8.15 o'clock. As both teams appear to be in better condition than in either of the two games previous, and as there is no danger of the men being bothered by poor ice as on Wednesday, tonight's game should be the fastest and hardest of the three. Yale will probably present its reorganized and much improved line-up with Howe at left centre; while the University seven will be as usual...

According to the latest reports reports received from Kandy, Ceylon, President Eliot is now out of danger and resting comfortably in the English hospital there. There operation for appendicitis which he underwent on Saturday morning has proved entirely successful and will cause little change in the plans for his trip around the world. It is probable, however, that the trip to China will be abandoned owing to the present unsettled conditions of that country, thus giving him an extra period of six weeks for convalescence...
...cannot too heartily agree. Throughout the football season the CRIMSON urged upon the undergraduates the value of cheering as an inspiration to the team, but we said at the outset that there were certain risks connected with it. On November 13 in an editorial we said, "There is a danger ... that the cheer leaders will be induced to give cheers that will drown our own or our opponents' signals. This of course is not to be tolerated." In the Yale game the cheering was abundant and enthusiastic. That in itself was an improvement over the condition in years past when...
