The need for such a press lies in the fact that some of the most creditable work of the foremost scholars of the world is not sufficiently profitable commercially to tempt the regular publisher.

Such a press can also advance the prestige of the University by issuing over its imprint learned works that may not need special subsides. These...

In addition to this an invaluable knowledge of the financing and distibution of a college daily is gained. The positions to be filled have a great deal of responsibility attached, and though all cannot attain to these offices, the training is of sufficient value to warrant a large competition from 1917.

This meeting should eclipse all that have gone before from the standpoint of attendance and influence for the advancement of the University...
...yard run a great deal depends on the draw. If Barron is fortunate in this respect he should win the race. However, if Meredith, of Pennsylvania, decides to run in the quarter he will make a very dangerous competitor. Janson, of Michigan, should take a place unless he saves himself for the half, and Wilkie, of Yale, and W. J. Bingham '16 should both gain points with Caldwell, of Cornell, Lockwood, of Princeton, and J. C. Rock '15 as other contestants...
