...look into the future we can hope to see a large spacious theatre owned by the city, which has become the centre of the people's life. The theatre will have become a true delight. The actor freed from the hard work and the notoriety of today will devote himself to his art and fulfill the real duties of a citizen. We are beginning to realize that the theatre is not merely a place "for the wise to seek foolish gratification and the foolish to remain so." Let everybody help free the theatre from this commercial bondage. The opposition will...
...apparently necessary to revile the Freshman class for not supporting its various teams. The communication printed in another column this morning shows that only about 50 Freshmen considered it worth their while to report for the first practice of the crew, a state of affairs which is particularly hard to understand after Harvard's success in rowing last year. Probably the best oarsmen in the class are among this number, but as it has so often been shown, good oarsmen can be developed from men of no experience. It is to be hoped that the size of the squad today...
...Harvard captains who have been unable to go through the season with their teams. Last fall the football eleven lost its leader in the middle of the season, and now it is announced that illness has caused the resignation of the captain of the crew. It will be hard to fill Severance's place in the boat and it will be hard for the crew to change its captain, but if bad fortune had to come, we are glad that it came at this time. There are more than the usual number of good oarsmen in College now, and although...
This state of affairs may leave the championship undecided this year, because it will be very hard to arrange another game between Harvard and Dartmouth in case today's game is not played and Harvard defeats Yale. Both teams are limited in the number of trips they can take, and both are laboring under financial disadvantages. We hope that the building of an indoor rink in Boston will prevent the recurrence of a like dilemma, or that the Athletic Association will see fit to provide some means by which the hockey team can be sure of good ice throughout...
...sport which for some reason for other is regarded with less interest at Harvard than at almost any other university. The miserable facilities of the Hemenway Gymnasium account in part for this feeling, for they tend to prevent many men from playing basketball; but even so it is hard to understand why there are only 20 candidates for the team out of about 1450 men eligible to play. With such a small squad to begin with, and with a schedule shorter than most of the other teams have, it is no wonder that a majority of the games are lost...
