...aversion to voting is otherwise explained. In a word, I believe that the system of election is grievourly at fault, in that it is not adapted to conditions at Harvard. For more than forty percent of Harvard undergraduates are not personally acquainted with those of their class-mates who become candidates for office. "Harvard indifference" and "Harvard snobbishness" have prevented them from acquiring any intimate knowledge upon which to base their choice of officers; and under these conditions it would be handle honorable for them to select any of the names mentioned in the ballot. Their choice would have...
Your editorial finds fault with the airshaft, but fails to advance any reason why there should be no airshaft. Obviously an airshaft is a vital necessity, and what in the face of rain and snow, is less strange than that it should be covered? "Drinking fountains in the slop sinks" is a nasty phrase. yet only a phrase, since, after an inspection, it is noted that, like other drinking fountains, these are placed above sanitary basins to receive the superfluous water. "Mention might be made of the toilets, the lighting, and ventilation in general", but you do not make...
This week Coach Campbell and his assistants have devoted themselves strenuously to fault shown in the Andover game on Saturday with results that were clearly visible yesterday.

In every contest to date the Crimson has swept down the field in beautiful form only to be kept at the last minute from making a touchdown on account of a fumble, a penalty, or a pure let-down in the offensive strength. It is this fault that the Crimson coaching staff and players will do all in their power to nullify in the next few days by stiff scrimmages with Coach Knox's men, individual work, and an attempt to weld the team into a real unified force...
...plays which the Club produces are not written by its members, to be sure, but this seeming fault may be excused on the ground that the production of its own pieces would necessarily bring it into conflict with the 47 Workshop. At the same time it must be remembered that the Dramatic Club's policy of presenting plays never before acted in this country furnishes an opportunity for individual work and interesting experiments. By so doing, the Club has attained a unique position among the many collegiate dramatic organizations--a position which it seems likely to hold. Nor is there...
