...uncertainty which has surrounded the University's coming football season has been largely dispelled by the Athletic Committee's selection of the new coach. Robert Fisher has been spoken of as an available candidate ever since it was definitely known that Major Haughton could not return.

We need to discover the point of view of the opposition. The new magazine promises to show it to us without making it revolting. It must maintain its position at all costs, and must receive the recognition of the country. It promises to afford a meeting ground for ideas, and to promote discussion. It reminds us, at a time when the world seems too likely...
