...days of college life as it used to be "when Father was in college in the good old '80's" have gone down in history as the time when Harvard stood alone in its glory, when "college spirit" did not exist and when the undergraduates watched Yale trample over the University and then came home happy because the best team won and because the men of Harvard were true sportsmen. Be that as it may, down in our hearts we know that in the last few years, that is to say, just before the war, the University...
Every class in the community will be affected by this drastic measure. Not even the Back Bay bud will escape the pinch, for one clause reads that all dances, public and private, shall stop at 10 o'clock.

They consider themselves good enough to go and fight their country's battles, however, and we, with our old system of athletics, in which we placed the premium on the specialized expert, have really denied them the physical training that they find so necessary...
...power of the neighboring warmer air decreased, but it would be hard to maintain any such thesis as that. The simple fact is that scientific and dependable records of the weather are a comparatively new thing. They extend back in this country but 44 years. And they have already gone to prove that there is no such thing as a "change of climate," for better or for worse, in New England. The weather in Boston in essentially what it was at the days of the first settlement; and if there had been no record as low as 14 degrees below...
