...those who enjoy the "absolute shall", the dogmatic assertion that fundamental reforms can and must be put through without a moment's delay, Professor Beale's "Reorganization of the University," will prove delightful. We have heard the "College system" recommended, but Professor Beale commands it. The article is fairly melodramatic; each sentence, sharp, clear-cut, sweeping, provides new excitement. When we have finished, we wonder breathlessly how Harvard can continue to exist if all the things Professor Beale says are true...
...Championship meet in Boston in August. W. M. Rand '09 won the championship in both high and low hurdles. A. B. Mason '08 was second in the low hurdles and third in the high. B. T. Stephenson, Jr., '08 secured two second places and two thirds. In the shot-put he was beaten by W. W. Coe of the B. A. A. and in the high-jump by H. Gidney of the B. A. A. He was third in the pole vault and broad jump. J. M. Groves '05 finished second in the 5-mile...

...outlook for the broad jump, the pole-vault, and the hammer-throw is not encouraging. Stephenson and C. C. Little '10 are both good in the broad jump, but their shot-putting is apt to detract from their jumping at the end of the season. P. C. Haskell '08 and E. H. Ruch '10 may develop into point winners in the jump. With the loss of Grant, the team is left without any pole-vaulter of much ability, and in the hammerthrow, W. Peirce '08 and H. M. Gilmore '08 can hardly make up for the loss of Kersburg...
...American composite life is a Sunday afternoon visit to the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. Mr. Simonson is wrong, too, in choosing the slashing style, in throwing other critics out of court. Such phrases as "critical ephemeridae", "there is a great deal of nonsense written", are likely to put the reader out of sympathy with the writter, who has the whole field to himself; the other fellow cannot answer back. But Mr. Simonson is very happy in such phrases as these: "Holbein did not paint the court of Henry VIII; he painted the eternal beauties of texture in terms...
