The final article is by Mr. Williston of the Law School and is upon the "Right to follow Trust Property when confused with other Property."

There are two candidates for the position of coxswain, both from the School of Arts...

In this connection, he finds fault with the method of awarding prizes because he says it is made purely on the basis of scholarship. In this, he is only partially right.

But the gentlemen who have the distribution of scholarships in charge, have the privilege of using their discretion as to whether high standing shall be the only thing considered. In many cases aid is given to a student...
