Yesterday afternoon at four-fifteen precisely, the library was closed, and the students were precluded from enjoying its privileges during a third of the working hours of the day except in so far as they had been able to avail themselves of the reserve book system. This closing of the library at such early hours will of course continue until the days are considerably lengthened, and even then, as now, the building will be shut during the entire evening. Even a moment's reflection will be enough to convince any fair-minded man of the injustice of such a state...

So small a number does not allow proper ventilation between lectures, and even if there were enough to accomodate all the classes conveniently, this would be a great disadvantage; but when it is added that no one of the rooms is large enough to allow a class...

...willing to fulfil her self. Because she cannot be injured by a challenge is no reason for calling her present protest underhanded. It is for the best interests of all colleges concerned that the players of each should be challenged in order that college athletics may be purified as far as possible. As for the unfairness of our protesting four of Princeton's men on purely professional grounds we fail to see the strength of Princeton's objection since a like privilege belongs to her. It looks very much as if the shoe pinched too much for Princeton's comfort...
