...caps and gowns after May 1 be continued, and today it is for the members to carry out their resolutions with the same unanimity. If only a few are able to conquer their self-consciousness and sally forth arrayed in their academic costumes, the reason for the custom will disappear. The only way to carry out the tradition properly is for every man to consider it an honor to be thus distinguished from the rest of the College. If this is done, the class cannot help being somewhat more unified in the last few weeks of its College career...
...like to attribute it to the laziness of the Musical Clubs, very few have been held in recent years, in spite of the constant appeals of the undergraduates; and what was once one of the most pleasant features of the spring term has been allowed practically to disappear.

...Freshman team will face Yale tomorrow with an unusually poor record behind it, and with a felling that the class is entirely absorbed in following the University team, to the exclusion of all interest in the team which represents it. This feeling, will disappear, however, if the mass meeting tonight is well attended, and if the members of 1911 stifle their desire to see the Dartmouth game and show their representatives that the outcome of the Yale Freshman game means almost as much to them as it does to the players...
