...them in advance by academic hijackers and have been crammed with the answers. An acceptable thesis means nothing when the material has been organized or the whole paper has been written by a tutoring school. A course credit is no fitting reward when the recipient has not turned a hand to secure it.

...success of this year's newly organized House hockey may be considered as boding well for the venture. The Junior Varsity puckmen were allowed to compete and improve the competition, and the Varsity hockey coach was on hand on numerous occasions to give advice which many of the non-Junior Varsity men would never have been able to receive. With the complete abolition of the Junior Varsity hockey team, the possibility of a regular House hockey coach, handling also the Freshmen, is extremely practical. In another sport, baseball, the new coach has expressed his willingness to look on the House...
