...plan proposed in the editorial column of Friday's issue of the CRIMSON, to make the sum contributed for a Phillips Brooks Memorial a nucleus for the more comprehensive improvement of a University Club seems to me to call for careful consideration at the hands of every Harvard man. Valuable as is the work of the religious societies of this University it would certainly increase their influence to be in as close relationship with the whole College as quarters in a University Club would place them. They would not gain their new accommodations so quickly it is true...

...Freshman organization is, without considering its details, a plan to prevent this waste, and as such we wish to commend it heartily. The personal application to all men who can possibly be of any use is a step in the right direction. Even if they can not become point winners now, some will do so in the course of time, and at all events the labor is sure to bear fruit sooner or later, provided only that it is consistently carried...
