...three competing teams composed of Sophomores under Junior captains. To this the returned members of the College and Graduate Schools responded generously with $3,036.58, which sum although $1,026.27 less than the collection of 1917-18, was very encouraging from a little more than half-filed University. It must be remembered, too, that the $1,698.76 taken in last fall was in large part given by the Harvard men in the S. A. T. C.

His characters are alive, and the wind blows. In Balked Mr. Raffalovich burlesques certain modern fads, but such fads, even in burlesques, are worth neither the expenditure of Mr. Raffalovich's gifts nor the time of the paper maker...
Owing to the fact that not more than half a dozen men have shown sufficient interest to warrant their retention, more candidates are wanted for the second assistant University football managership competition. Candidates will meet at the H. A. A. at 6.30 on Monday. All members of the Class of 1922 are eligible to compete, and the successful candidate will, become University manager in his Senior year...
