...distance events, and although this may depend partly upon conditions of climate and temperament, we should not confine ourselves to events in which we have always excelled. Any innovation such as the race with Yale is sure to be an incentive to participate in the sport, and we hope that this incentive will be made stronger by a Harvard victory today...
...last meeting. The choruses of the songs were, in general, much better than the rest, and most of them would be more appropriate for football songs if only the choruses were used. "Smash the Line" is difficult to sing, and "Cambridge Town" is complicated by the introduction. "No Hope for Yale" is simple and has swing, but the close is not so good as the beginning.

The singing will be accompanied by Kanrich's Band, as the University Band has not had sufficient opportunity to learn the new songs. Besides the new songs already tried, four others have been chosen by the Song Committee and will be tried out tonight. They are "Smash the Line," by "XZZQ44," "The Harvard Love Song," by "Suitor," "Victory's Song," to the tune of "General...
