...members of the Union and of that number only 77 have sent in their applications. It would seem hardly worth while to have the dance if only 77 men care enough about it to apply for invitations and it certainly would be a failure financially. The price of three dollars is not prohibitive--it has purposely been placed within every man's reach. The obvious conclusion is that the class does not want the dance or that it is just too nonchalant and preoccupied to take the trouble to send in the applications. We are inclined to believe the latter...
Applications for tickets to the Harvard-Princeton hockey game at the St. Nicholas Rink, next Saturday evening, must be received in the office of the Athletic Association before 6 o'clock tomorrow evening.

Three or four hundred men are eating there now under this system and about five hundred on the American plan. It is then important to know whether this accusation is true...
...Distributing the $640. among these 125 boarders, we must add roughly $5, to the cost of each one's board, bringing it to the figure $9.64, cost to the Hall of feeding each "transient" boarder a week! This amount is of course ridiculous. Evidently the cause of the high price of board is not the "transient" system. Even if one granted that the "transients" should each have paid $1 per week more, this would have reduced merely by fifteen cents the $5.96 that the 800 men were paying...
...communication in regard to Memorial Hall in this morning's issue is interesting. The writer has undertaken to prove by a reductio ad absurdum that the new transient system was not responsible for the high price of board in November and December, which statement was made at the time by several members of the Association. It sounds reasonable to advocate the maintenance of both systems in use at present. We should not be surprised if the writer had called attention to a good share of the trouble in advocating a more business-like effort to please...
