When theatregoers heard that Donald Brian had left his former co-partners, Julia Sanderson and Joseph Cawthorne, there was general dissatisfaction. It was felt that "united we stand, divided we fall" would be quite applicable to this move. To witness "Her Regiment," now playing at the Shubert Theatre, is proof that such a view is correct, for even Victor Herbert's music is not enough to warrant Mr. Brian's appearance as a sole star. It is true that Mr. Brian has been surrounded with a cast of mediocrity, which might excuse leniency in judgment. He dances as well...

...plentiful. The coal question remains a serious thing. It was thought that the Student Council's plan of early retiring and early rising would contribute Harvard's small share to the solution of this problem. The student body has thought otherwise. Among the opponents of this plan there were heard those who condemned official action and advocated individual effort. Let every individual have it as his duty to economize coal and its derivatives. This is the only course left. We charge every student to feel this responsibility. Electricity is the product most easily economized, and we can do a small...
