...idea of cloistering the Yard with a fringe of small dormitories, as set forth in the new building program, is almost certain to arouse student opposition from at least a portion of the undergraduate body. It is new. It is sudden. Above all, it seems to encroach upon what many members of the University have time out of mind considered hallowed ground. So away with...

...beginning to lose the careless informality of other days. Neither the performers nor the audience used to bother much about getting to them on time. It used to be long after the appointed hour before the conductor made his initial bow, and long after that before any appreciable portion of those to whom he was supposedly bowing began to trickle in.

...mention of the Rev. Dr. John Roach Stratton in your otherwise admirable article in Tuesday's CRIMSON on the Harvard Catholic Forum seems to me unfortunate. The Episcopal Church, and particularly the most ardently Catholic portion of it, has reiterated times without number, its complete detachment in regard to the debate of the Fundamentalists and Modernists (both names are about as appropriate as the average cigar label) which divides most of the Dissenting Sects. Mr. Wim. Jennings Bryan's sad dilemma of "the Rock of Ages and the age of rocks" simply can not exist for the Catholic Churchman. There...
