...dispatch from Washington and the date set for the testimony of the delegates sent by the various colleges. Obviously, then, there was no time for wide debating on the subject. The CRIMSON'S stand was determined at a meeting of the board on Monday evening and in order to offset our opinions and give free rein to both sides of the question we printed on the two remaining days, communications frankly antagonistic to our policy...
...English, headlines seem too elaborate, however. The new features speak well for the ingenuity and enterprise of the 1917 board. The inconvenience caused by the late publication is easily offset by the absence of some of the more distressing errors. The scope of the book has been enlarged to include articles about several of the Graduate Schools; a map of the University showing the location of the clubs and the homes of undergraduate activities; and a calendar of the year's events made particularly up-to-date by the incorporation of the baseball schedule, hitherto unpublished.

The Yale line is heavier and has more power than Harvard and ought to be able to offset the quicker charge of the Crimson line. Defensively, this weight and power advantage ought to be a great asset to Yale, provided the men are not given too explicit instructions to watch some individual star on the Harvard team. Personally, I believe in a space defence where every man covers...
