...last year $6,490, and left $1,746 of unpaid bills, a total of $8,236. The Yale News is authority for the statement that last year the Yale boat club spent $6,000, and had $1,000 of unpaid bills, a total of $7,000, or $1,236 less than Harvard. Even if our crew did cost less than the Yale crew, that is no argument that there may not be extravagancies existing which it would be well to get rid of. Let them have spend money for beds which they need, and not for blazers...

The next meeting will be attended by ladies who, even less than men, will care to remain through a long meeting if delays occur.

Consequently, if the crews board at Memorial, the difference between what the men pay regularly for their board and the training table price will be much decreased...
Eighty-six, with almost 250 men on its rolls, votes to have a class dinner. A committee is appointed by which all the necessary arrangements are made. A book is opened,- and then what happens? Out of the 250 juniors less than a fifth respond! Can eighty-six, after the reputation it has made for itself in its college career, afford to allow this class dinner fail through sheer indifference? We think not. We even venture to hope that, not 50 only, but 100 juniors will improve this opportunity to revive the smouldering sparks of class spirit which still glows...
