...difficult to get all the facts underlying the drastic action taken by the faculty in one case and the student council in the other. But it seems plain enough that the subsequent situations were both handled with complete lack of tack, and in a way calculated to promote friction. When five hundred students of City College attempted to present a petition to their president, they were refused admittance. No effort was or has been made to settle the matter in a sensible manner with some regard for the feeling of the undergraduates. To deny them the privillege of petition...
...first period, the score was 2-2, an indication of the manner in which the game was played up to that point. After the first period and a half, however, Dartmouth weakened, and from then on play was more or less slow. The apparent lack of substitutes for the visitor was a decisive factor in their defeat, for it was evident that the regular player were wearied by the first twenty minutes of fast skating...
This move, or rather lack of action, is unreasonable, unfair, unprofitable, and inconsistent with the Association's action in reducing the price of H.A.A. books for the remainder of the year.

It is to be hoped that this alumni fusion will facilitate important collective contributions to intellectual activity. Certainly thee is no other large body which, conceding...
...went well with the Dayton work until last December when the blaster, for lack of an automatic disconnecter, set the whole device afire. No patient was in the hot box at the time. Within a week the group had complete new equipment, proceeded with more treatments. Last week another disaster occurred. As Dr. Simpson in Montreal prepared to read a report, his collaborator, Dr. Kislig, died in Dayton. Autopsy showed progressive heart failure following influenza. Dr. Simpson caught a train, left the paper for another to read. Radiotherm treatments at Dayton will continue...
