...sympathetic thrill can be accounted for by accidents which may have befallen members of the faculty similar to the one which happened to a certain editor of the CRIMSON when, one dark and rainy night not long ago, he chanced to stumble into a fair-sized pond three feet deep in the very midst of the path. Be this as it may, the college authorities have at last awakened to the fact that it would be cheaper to lay board walks than to hire a fleet of gondolas for the rest of the winter. This grand stroke of economic policy...
...with deep regret that we feel obliged to call attention once more to the selfishness of certain undergraduates in refusing to give up their rooms to seniors on class-day. Several cases have recently been brought to our notice where the courteous requests of seniors for the use of rooms have been flatly refused.

Why should not Harvard College fittingly observe this legal holiday? It certainly would be a benefit...
...proposition. It was in fact nothing more nor less than a partial abandonment of the one time-honored "freshman elective" now spared to us. First in the series of changes came the abolition of the May-Day party in which we all used so to rejoice, then followed other deep-seated and revolutionary reforms, including the suppression of the horrible rites of Bloody Monday Night, and now the freshmen are threatened with an abridgment of their daily exercise at the bowling alleys. Up, freshmen, and be men! Let not your honor be thus stained. Exterminate all who venture thus...
