...college yard. Possibly this sympathetic thrill can be accounted for by accidents which may have befallen members of the faculty similar to the one which happened to a certain editor of the CRIMSON when, one dark and rainy night not long ago, he chanced to stumble into a fair-sized pond three feet deep in the very midst of the path.

Columbia defeated Yale, Princeton and Harvard last year, and, though it by no means follows that she will be able to do so this year, yet she has shown herself worthy of a place in the new league. So why not let her in? The best plan seems...
