...last, the long desired electric lights in the Senior Dormitories seem assured, and thus is completed a final step in their popularization. The rapid growth of the Senior Dormitories from a mere idca into one of Harvard's strongest traditions is due to the recognition of the fact the appeal must be not only to sentiment but to the senses. With modern shower baths came modern comfort; with electric lights comes a certain degree of luxury which removes the last reason for unwillingness to spend one year in the Yard. The CRIMSON highly commends the unselfish spirit and cooperation between...
Individually, the men are in promising condition. Felton, while he has not as yet perfected his control, seems in a fair way to get in shape for the big games, Hitchcock has shown a remarkable development and may be expected to do good work on the mound. The rapid development shown by the less experienced men--Ayres, Tomes, and Gannet,--is decidedly encouraging.

Hodges, Freedley, and Spelman, have the distinction, rare among amateurs, of getting all their lines across the footlights, even when in competition with a graduates' night audience.F. SCHENCK...
...CRIMSON baseball team will open its season on Soldiers Field this afternoon at 3.30 o'clock with a practice game against a team representing the CRIMSON Candidates' Association. Such an early beginning has been necessitated by the rapid development of professionalism in sport on the Lampoon. With them it has always been "Anything to win." To what extent they are carrying this policy is shown by the fact that they intend to forego the usual kegged refreshment in their annual defeat from the CRIMSON at the climax of the spring season...
