...interested in the welfare of Harvard. Yet the Athletic Committee has not hesitated to sacrifice the University for the benefit of the country. Such peace-time service is without doubt harder to give than many of the sacrifices we have willingly made in the glamor of war. Any other way, however, of meeting this real crisis through which the country is now passing would have been at absolute variance with the patriotic traditions which have guided the policy of Harvard since its founding in pre-revolutionary days...
...Harvard Square slush. Even the wildest extremes of Bolshevik art fail to stir those of us who have gazed upon Memorial Hall. On the whole, the case for Bolshevism has thus far been presented in an unfavorable light. Now, however, the Hasty Pudding seeks to portray for us the glamor and charm of Bolshevism, while tactfully avoiding the unpleasant technicalities of the subject. And what, pray, is the result? This Bolshevik advance agent commits the crowning folly of his clown-like career by politely declining the aid of the Hasty Pudding's marked dramatic talent. Although our faith...
...Stadium its baptism of Harvard football. Five hundred undergraduates filled the flagship of the Fall River Fleet for one sleepless night and then enjoyed the Great White Way for an eve of celebration.

The two universities competed Saturday in what seemed a pure love for sport. There was none or the glamor of a great intercollegiate contest on Soldiers Field or Lake Carnegie. Our thoughts seem to have turned to more serious matters, but still we applaud such success as our teams have met and the spirit in which they played...
...alone opposed to big games at this time. Will there now be a new expression from those two institutions of their views on the matter? Athletics of the stamp advocated by Secretaries Daniels and Baker and by the Intercollegiate Athletic Association do not call for a return to the glamor and expense of the old regime. Briefly they advocate a system somewhat similar to that in use at West Point, minimized running expenses, little practice and a team that represents the institution and which plays numerous outside games with teams. --Yale News
