...Farm Board. John Planter, who normally raises 90 bales of cotton, steps up and promises to raise only 60 this year. Secretary Wallace gives him an option on 30 bales of Government cotton at 6? per lb., the current market price. When hundreds of thousands of John Planters repeat this process, cotton demand starts to exceed cotton supply and prices (in theory) spurt up to 8? or 10? or 12? per lb. Next autumn John Planter orders Secretary Wallace to sell his option cotton, makes a tidy profit to compensate him for the 30 bales he never raised...
...second objection is, on the whole, more respectable. Should Cambridge do the expected and repeat its ordinance, dispensing beer would still necessitate a license, and there might be fears that the innovation would not justify itself financially. But in the past the authorities were able to cope with both features, and after the legalization of beer the situation should not be substantially different. Many corporations of smaller stature than the University propose to become licensed, and the management which accumulated a surplus in the House dining halls should be equal to the problem of selling beer profitably.

...spring of their freshman year. In spite of the fact that each year complaints are made of the uselessness of the Freshman Advisers, the incoming Freshman hears nothing of the matter, and innocently trots about the Yard and the House seeking appointments with strange tutors, who will repeat the same message to each man on the glories of his field, and finally dashes to his "adviser" to sign a study card. Entirely apart from the student's own preference, and the suggestions his family will offer, the College makes no attempt to offer the information which is so necessary...
...test that will definitely determine the caliber of the Crimson racquet-men. Last week a few of the squad got together an informal team, drove down to Princeton, and were defeated 4 to 1. Yale has previously downed the Tiger aggregation, and now the question is, can they repeat their success in Cambridge. It is not an easy question to answer, but I feel that Cowles' outfit will come out on top. The loss to Princeton does not prove a great deal, and the team, in its regular line-up, will have several advantages over the sons of Eli. They...
