...members of the freshman eleven have made the mistake which most freshman teams make sooner or later in their career. They have fallen into the delusion that they are practicing each day for their own amusement and do not seem to realize that they are to turn out a team that must meet the Yale freshmen. Because the error is a common one, it is not the less blamable It is for the freshmen to decide at once whether they will begin to make an earnest effort to win the coming contest by hard practice each day, or whether they...

...most attractive features of the Memorial Dining Hall is the memorial windows, mainly the gift of recently graduated classes. These windows are suffering from sheer neglect; and not only have many of the leads fallen out, but some of the smaller pieces of glass have shaken from their places. A very little care would repair the damage already done, as well as keep the windows in their proper condition for the future. The college can ill afford to allow these windows to fall into decay apparently from indifference. It is unjust both to those whose kind thoughtfulness has given these...
