...Union dances, etc.; the managers of scrub athletic series and numerous other bodies have or are expected to have records which are valuable only to the men who are connected with the same interests in future years. Yet in many cases these records, if compiled at all, are either kept by the men who wrote them, or are left in widely scattered places. In various parts of the CRIMSON office we have recently discovered three sets of records of scrub football and baseball series, which were so concealed that they would probably never have come to the notice...
