...Harvard Memorial Society which deserves the attention of undergraduates. Although most of us are more or less familiar with the good work which the Society has done to preserve the records and traditions of the College, we have few occasions when we can show our appreciation and interest in tangible form. The idea of celebrating the three hundredth anniversary of the birth of John Harvard is a novel one and one which furnishes many possibilities for unique and effective ceremonies.

A close race has been predicted, but the CRIMSON feels sure that it voices the sentiments of the University in saying that there is the utmost confidence in Captain Bacon and his men to win this afternoon...

What really shows art is intensity of imagination on the part of the poet, which makes us feel upon opening the book that we are in a different world and that we have a live interest in the people and affairs of that world. This has been attained by many writers at various times, but it is prevalent in the Iliad through all the ordinary acts of life. Thus given this fiery intensity of imagination and Homeric style of expression we need not be surprised...
