...papers, which is, on a small scale, practically all very well, but, like everything else, the theoretical part of newspaper work ought to be coupled with it. At Yale they have already foreseen the advantage of this by securing the services of a person, who is thoroughly competent to deal with the minor details and intricacies of the large daily publications, to give a series of lectures on that subject. A course of this kind would tend to be a sort of stepping-stone for those who intend to make journalism their profession, from the inferior to the superior grades...
EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON:- Much has been said recently about the lack of significance attaching to the various degrees given by the colleges of the country. It is claimed with a great deal of justice that these degrees offer no criterion by which the merits of the recipients can be judged. When we think, however, of the vast differences which prevail in standards and in methods, we must be convinced that it is impossible at present to lay down any common rule by which degrees are to be awarded. But it is very surprising to find sometimes that degrees...
...class crews are suffering a great deal this year owing to the unusually large number of men who are working with the University crew. The class of '89 is perhaps the greatest sufferer, as eight of the twenty men under Captain Pfeiffer are from this class. Of last year's '89 crew Pfeiffer was the stroke, and he will be seriously missed this year. Parker, who rowed seven, is working with the University crew, but captains his class crew and coaches it. Sears, who rowed six, is not a candidate this year. Davis, who rowed five, Markoe and Hebard, four...
Pool, Root and Dickerman played more or less last fall in practise games. Dickerman is a fair fielder, but is not at home in any other place, while Poole and Root can fill any one of the positions outside the battery equally well. A great deal has been said about Dalzell, '91, and he has been cracked up as a wonderful pitcher. Yale's laurels would not, however, be very safe in his hands. He is a fair pitcher, but not at all the phenomenal player he has been described. It is possible that he and Day will constitute...
...communication from Professor James this morning calling the attention of the college to a plan for examinations without proctors presented to the defunct Conference Committee by one of its members is interesting throughout, but particularly in the use of one expression "effective moral opinion." There is a great deal of opinion here which has not the courage to raise its head, and so becomes ineffective. Recently Professor Adler spoke in Sander's Theatre and impressed upon his hearers the word activity. If that lesson could be taken a little more to heart there would be a great change...
