This year's Tiger squad is impressive, but not nearly the equal of the awesome powerhouse that ran roughshod through the league last year. Already this season, it has lost to Brown, 15 to 11, and in its first match, it lost to a strong Lehigh team...

...Believe it or not, the South is a part of the U.S., and is entitled to majority rule. If the majority of the people of a state want segregated schools, they should have them. The minority have the right to demand equal facilities, and a state which fails to provide them should be penalized.

...some who are pained by such ludicrous goings-on. To ease the minds of these individuals, and to put the HYRC in a more favorable light for the Dean's office, two solutions are offered. One is, do away with the presidency altogether and let everybody fight on equal ground. Thinking back on the club's presidents in recent years, this doesn't seem a bad idea at all. The other is, elect both major contenders, and have them rule like the twin consuls of Rome. This way, everybody wins. Difficulties over policy may arise, but it will be hard...
