...situation that may be labelled critical, when a number of men are denied the privilege of taking exercise at least every other day. During the Reading Period, when lengthened hours of study have drawn upon the other activities of the undergraduate, the problem is presented in all its acuteness. The situation should, not however, be regarded as a temporary one. The extension of playing hours at the courts was an excellent decision, but one that has been overlapped by present need...

It is an unflattering paradox to the excellent co-operation of the Library during the Reading Period that within its seventh circle, an illegitimate kind of co-operation should rear its ugly head...
