Merrill '24 got the pole, in leading off, but lost it later, leaving their successors a handicap which continued to increase. J. N.

Mr. Lane, the librarian, in barring such men from the Library until after the Midyear period has chosen the punishment with justice. Those who fail to regard the privileges of others deserve to lose their...
