...behalf of the Class Officers and the Jubilee Committee, I should like to reply to the letter which appeared in Thursday's CRIMSON concerning the date of May 17 for the Jubilee.

The Class Officers, in selecting this date, chose it as the most favorable in regard to these contests. As the Dean's Office does not allow the dance to be held during...
...current issue of the Alumni Bulletin carries a letter from the captain of the University crew inviting all interested graduates to follow the practice of the squad from a launch to be reserved for their use.

Loudly he protested that dealings in liquor stocks on U. S. exchanges are, or ought to be, illegal under the 18th Amendment. He demanded a refund of his losses...
...hurricane deck of the S. S. Leviathan in Manhattan last week stood a 15-year-old girl in a dark sailor blouse, a white canvas hat and black shoes and stockings. To the mainmast peak she, Joanna Chapman, ran up a small triangular flag picked out with the letter Y. Her father, Paul Wadsworth Chapman, handed a $4,000,000 check to Chairman T. V. O'Connor of the U. S. Shipping Board. The biggest shipping deal in U. S. history thus completed, the Leviathan's personnel was cut 10% and away she sailed with 1,398 passengers...
