...play. The audiences at all four of the New York performances were large and very enthusiastic and the press notices were all highly flattering. In Boston the experience was practically the same and, judging from last night's performance, the Cambridge audiences will receive the play with equal favor. The music and libretto are bright and entertaining and the interest is very well sustained from beginning to end. Wednesday night's performance will be given for the benefit of the Frank Bolles Memorial Fund and those who wish to contribute to the fund will find this an agreeable...
Occasionally a subscriber complains that the morning's CRIMSON was not delivered to him. We regard such a report as a favor. Outside parties have contracted to deliver the papers satisfactorily, and the word of subscribers is all that can indicate whether they are fulfilling their contract. If they are careless and no complaint is made, they will grow more careless; but, if the complaint does come, then there is a palpable warning to them against remissness.

...regard to the disposition of the grandstands, we are heartily in favor of having them moved to Holmes rather than to Soldiers Field. The cost of removal would be less, and both fields need grandstands. Those on Holmes are old, rickety, much repaired, and must soon be torn down. The stands at present on Jarvis would make an excellent substitute and would probably last as long as the field can be devoted to athletics. With Soldiers Field, the conditions are different. There grandstands of the first order ought to be erected. We think that much better ones even than those...
...legislative bodies in the United States. The edition of "Good Government" of March 15 contains particular reference to the formation of the club; it will be sent with a printed copy of the constitution to every college in the country. It is hoped thereby to start a movement in favor of reform that will be national in its character and effective in its influence; and it is not beyond the bounds of probability that an Intercollegiate Civil Service Reform Alliance may be formed in the future, in the deliberations of which Harvard might well take a leading part...
