...astonishingly small. This is true of both battery and fielding squads. The practice this week has brought out the fact that the material is not at all above the Freshman average, and unless more interest is shown by 1911 in baseball than at present, it will be difficult to develop a winning Freshman nine. Whether or not a class is to be called a "good" class depends to a certain extent upon its record in athletics in its Freshman year. 1911 has lost the football, but won the relay.

...this meet there will be dormitory teams made up of inexperienced men, and novice competitions in nearly all events. There is a chance for any man, no matter whether he has ever run before or not, to come out and have a good time, and perhaps, with good coaching, develop the latent qualities of a point-winner. L.

The work of the defense was good though it was not given a thorough test...
...years will meet with a warm reception in Cambridge, but they will not have as much effect as more frequent exhibitions of talent, even if it is amateurish. At present the inspiration to future play-wrights comes from club theatricals and Boston performances. Would it not be possible to develop, with the assistance of the English Department, a series of plays which would open opportunities to talent representing the entire University? As a centre for this activity we should suggest the Union. Monthly plays would be of value to the embryo writers and actors of the University and would also...
