...course for its second time row, covering the four miles upstream in 21 minutes and 23 seconds, the fastest time, that has been made this year. Yale's best time was 22 minutes and 11 seconds, made about a week ago. The crew started this morning under very fair conditions, with a favoring wind and tide, but the tide was went for the first two miles. As the work came just at noon, the men were somewhat oppressed by the heat since they rowed with the wind. Nevertheless, they rowed about 30 to 32 strokes to the minute until...

As the game comes on the day before Class Day, many men, underclassmen as well as Seniors, will have friends in Cambridge, and it is hardly fair to ask them to leave their guests to find their way alone, in order to march in the parade. Those, however, who shun the cheering section merely because of the discomfort of walking in a crowd, should realize that they have more responsibility than at a professional game. Numbers count...
Although it is hardly within the sphere of the CRIMSON to criticise the other College papers, we feel that the parody on "Fair Harvard" in the last number of the Lampoon calls for some adverse comment. The writer may have intended to ridicule away the suggestion that more appropriate words could be chosen for "Fair Harvard," but his verses seem to be in extremely poor taste.
