...undergraduate's interests here at Harvard may be classed under three heads,--athletic, social,--both harmless and vicious,--and academic. The Faculty, realizing that, in the race to win the interest of the average undergraduate, it is far behind the promoters of athletic and social enterprises, proposes to exclude, in a measure, the other competitors. Before it does so it would be well for it to examine the workings of all the departments to see if the utmost possible is done to attract the interest of undergraduates.

The various abuses of scholarly interests can then be taken...

Such statistics must be procurable. We cannot imagine that the Faculty is working altogether on vague generalities. If possible, the CRIMSON will procure them for publication, in order that every man may come to a just conclusion on whether athletic restriction will lead to better scholarship, or only to occupations by far less desirable...
