...consider these proportions in order. The statistics show that only the hockey and tennis teams came through with credit balances. All other minor teams had deficits of varying size that had to be met from the general fund. In other words any advantages that the rule may have possessed have ceased to operate, but its evil effects are as strong as ever. The basketball team has to cater to the public by arranging games in Mechanics Hall, and all the teams have to send their candidates on unfruitful tours through the University in search of support. It is high time...
...question next arises how any teams are to be supported from the general fund if subscriptions are abolished. As a matter of fact the total amount collected in subscriptions last year was $9,115.94. If this is subtracted from last year's surplus it leaves but $2,524.53, an amount hardly sufficient to pay the amount due on the Stadium, and at the same time to carry out the various necessary improvements, such as reclaiming the rest of Soldiers Field. It must be remembered, however, that last year the surplus was unusually small and that in average years a reserve...
...from the table of the preceding year, which is published for purposes of comparison. The first item, "Care of Buildings and Grounds," is considerably greater than in 1905-06, due to the fact that the cost of painting the Stadium has been transferred to this account.

Permanent improvements include chiefly the cost of building 16 new tennis courts, and the continual constructing...
...Frissell, a graduate of Yale in 1874 and of the Union Theological Seminary of New York in 1879, has now been actively connected with the Hampton Institute for 28 years. He was chaplain from 1880 to 1893, when he became principal at the death of General S. C. Armstrong h.'89, the founder of the school and for 25 years its principal. He has continued to carry out General Armstrong's ideas of education and has greatly enlarged and extended the work and influence of the school...
...class as a whole has seen fit to support the Senior dormitory scheme and it now remains for the individuals to respond and apply for the rooms. It is highly desirable that a large and general application be made to insure the complete success of the privilege, and it is safe to assume in such an event that the Corporation through the Resident Executive Board will incline favorably to changes in the present system desirable from an undergraduate standpoint as they have during the past year. The class is now confronted with an opportunity which can be made a most...
