Furthermore, is is beyond question that private preparatory schools make much more of athletic training than do the public high schools. They have better facilities and a limited number of students, each one of whom receives a great deal of physical instruction. In fact, many private preparatory schools depend upon athletic notoriety to enlarge their constituency, whereas the public schools have no such incentive to athletic fame. It is not at all remarkable that the combination of these factors results in a situation, in which the private schools predominate in the physical, and the public schools in the intellectual phase...
...order to make the 1913 Class Album an unqualified success the Photograph Committee urges the co-operation of every Senior. If any suggestions or ideas arise which deal with the Album, or which will be of help to the Committee, they will be gladly received by any member of the Committee at any time.

I firmly believe that the present strength of 1913 is almost entirely...
...University Musical Clubs will give a concert in Philadelphia, the first city to be visited in the course of the Southern trip which has been arranged for the Christmas recess, similar to the Western tour of last year. Such a trip by a representative organization does a great deal towards spreading the influence of Harvard in a section of the country where it is not so well known, and this year's trip is particularly significant, as it is the first time the Musical Clubs have ever gone South. There are undoubtedly some members of the Clubs who look upon...
