...defeat such as the cross-country team experienced yesterday does not occur without a good reason. It is hard to believe that the trouble is with the runners, because they are drawn from the University and Freshman track teams of last year, both of which made excellent records. Moreover, our cross-country teams heretofore, some of which have had superior material, have won very few races. We believe that the fault lies with the irregular system under which the sport is carried on, and that a change in the present short-sighted economy of the Athletic Association by which...
...close of the Pierian concert in the Union last night the orchestra played "Fair Harvard." It is a positive fact that not more than one-fourth of those present--and there were over five hundred--made even an attempt at singing. Only about one-half of those who did make the attempt seemed in the least confident of the words. It is disgraceful that so few men know even the first verse of their College song.

Unusual interest attaches to the fall production of the Dramatic Club. To some extent this is due to the success of the performances last year, but to a far greater extent to the wise selection of the play to be produced. "The Scarecrow," by Percy MacKaye '97, whose "Jeanne d'Arc," "Sappho and Phaon," and "Mater," have been seen in New York and elsewhere, is undoubtedly Mr. MacKaye's most distinguished work. Though published in 1908, it has never been performed, and the Dramatic Club, therefore, has the distinction of presenting for the first time a play which is considered...
...large with tragic significance, Ravensbane is suddenly confronted with his scarecrow self, in the the glass of Truth. At the beginning of the fourth act, he is found in the deepest agonies of despair, for his kindled spirit revolts at sight of himself, as he really is. He at last recognizes the fiend in Dickon, revolts from his tutelage, breaks the pipe whose smoke has been the breath of his body, and falls at Rachel's feet, dying...
