...first string eight brushes up on fundamentals in preparation for the Thames classic, the odds seem to be heavily on Yale. The Crimson supporters are banking on the gradual return to form which has been evident during the past week, since the seating were finally settled. The eight is now approaching the peak of condition and seems to be rowing better than at any time since April 1. Although odds of 3 to 1 have been laid on a Yale win, it is extremely doubtful whether the Elis will have a large margin, although they will probably...

"The Patriot" is the only story in the volume that...
...that this can best be done through units similar to those being erected for the College. The need, as expressed in the CRIMSON nearly a month ago, for a graduate school guadrangle similar to that at Yale is a real one, and in the light of the more than gradual trend of Harvard University toward the House Plan, houses for graduate students are not only a welcome solution to a vital problem but a consistent...
