...CRIMSON has never taken itself unseriously, and although there are undergraduates who decry it, yet it is certainly a real college organ, and speaks for the majority.

From start to finish the positions on the CRIMSON are open to competition. The average board is composed of ten editors, who are chosen from a large number of candidates during four competitions--two Freshman year, and two Sophomore year.

Professor Edwin F.

Dr. D. A. Sargent discusses in an interesting and profitable manner...
