...fact that the spring games and the first freshman game with Yale have both been arranged for next Saturday. It is true that the fault does not lie with the officers of the H. A. A., for the date of the game with Yale has been arranged within the past two weeks; but if these two events come off at the same time, great difficulties occur: first, if the sports take precedence, the freshmen will be deprived of Holmes Field, on which, no doubt, they can do the best work; secondly, they will be deprived of a great deal...

Harvard does less at the present day to thrust any particular belief on the students than any foreign or indigenous institution of its kind. But the unfortunate reputation acquired in some past decade still clings vigorously in the minds of many, minds that must be either narrow or willfully ignorant. The services in the college chapel are of so unsec tarian a nature that any regular attender would soon see how absurd is the idea that brands Harvard as a "Unitarian college." A true view...
