...James, Jr., '99, in speaking on "The Graduate Advisory Board," said that ever since the CRIMSON was started the relations between the business management and the editorial board had been very distinct until this Graduate Board was formed. The margin for risk and trouble is great in the advent of an incapable business manager, and therefore it has been deemed expedient to form a graduate committee whose authority is entirely advisory. This board can call upon the business manager to submit a report of the condition of the paper when considered advisable. Thus, although the graduates act as advisers...
...Resident Executive Board granted the petition for this perference with the distinct understanding that it is not an extension of the Senior privilege, to which it is at present opposed, but that it is for the purpose of rendering available for men who will be Seniors next year, as many rooms as would have been available in the three Seniors dormitories, had not many rooms in Hollis and Stoughton been re-engaged by men who will not be Seniors next year...

As Franziska, Dorothea's neice, T. W. Knauth 07 makes a charming ingenue, and is more than ordinarily successful in creating an illusion of womanliness...
...seems to me that nearly every undergraduate will grant that training tables are of distinct value in promoting the physical efficiency of the athlete, his interest in his sport, and his interest in his fellows. The question is not whether training tables should be maintained, but whether they should be maintained at their present high cost. If this high cost is due to extravagance, and the extravagance is removed, all cause for complaint should vanish...
