...spectators. Fortunately to a large extent this is no longer the case. The "non-athletic spectators" are themselves becoming competitors in the less important games within the University. When the rest of Soldiers Field is reclaimed, and the Athletic Committee has demonstrated its ability to put athletics within the reach of all, as well as to make them a power in the intercollegiate field, then this argument can no longer be advanced. The facts, now not fully realized, will be too apparent to deny...
...first boat Sargent has been rowing regularly at stroke since replacing Morgan on Monday. The difficulty will be to develop a stroke whose reach is naturally long enough and steady enough for the rest of the crew to follow easily. Taken as a whole, the boat runs smoothly, but there is still a tendency to row straight from the arms and lose the shoulder swing, and to rush the stroke immediately after the finish.

We are thoroughly tired of being dunned for subscriptions, when the Athletic Association has an enormous yearly surplus beyond the reach of the minor managers. No one will attempt to defend subscription soliciting, either as a method of financing teams or as a competition. Nor is there a single good side to the commercial policy that is being so effectually forced upon our managers. What we all want is a blanket...
