With the publication of its fall number the Hound and Horn has announced that it is no longer a "Harvard Miscellany" and that now, after three years of development, it will become primarily "a magazine devoted to the arts and letters" with nothing more than a geographical connection with Harvard. In stating that the title has been changed because it misrepresented their intentions, the editors appear to be either pulling the wool over their eyes, or what is more likely, trying to pull it over the eyes of its readers...
Several years ago the magazine was started by a number of Harvard men who felt that there was a place, unfilled at the time, for such a publication in the University. Three years have been sufficient to show that Harvard as a whole did not really care about the Hound and Horn and at the same time that Harvard could not produce the material that the magazine wanted. The fact that their circulation has been to a large extent outside of Harvard and that practically no unsolicited contributions from students have been sufficiently good to merit publication, combine to prove...
...Admirals. But there are female torsos by Alexander Archipenko, possessor of an arresting linear imagination; there are Allan Clark's glamorous oriental shapes; Harriet Whitney Frishmuth's tender and charming studies of adolescence; Jacob Epstein's mottled, vigorous countenances; Paul Manship's images of swift, hound-escorted Diana and Actacon.

Only one thing is lacking to complete the renascence of art appreciation that is taking Cambridge by storm, only one thing to add to the Fogg Museum, The Hound and 'Horn, the Harvard Society for Contemporary Art and the loan library of pictures recently instituted by the Fogg...a library of music records. Some kind benefactor of the University would give great pleasure and the means of further study to Harvard students if he established a fund for the purchase of the symphonic and chamber music pieces which are now being so excellently recorded. A room in Paine Hall might...
...perceived that he had stove it right through the racing shell in which he and seven other Cambridge undergraduates were preparing to row, next week, against Oxford. He, the stroke, was stricken with mortification and dismay. Sticking your foot through the shell at rowing is equivalent to trampling a hound in a hunt or blowing off your neighbor's hat at a grouse shoot. Fortunately for Cambridge, a new shell had already been ordered. When a shell was damaged in 1906 just before Cambridge's race with (and victory over) Harvard, a new shell had to be built...
