The moral implications of the sale of a "non-intoxicating" beverage have been only too prominent in the official mind; and since those bogies have been combined with a state law forbidding such sale to legal minors, it is safe to say that the administration will allow less vulnerable and consequently less scrupulous merchants on the Square to profit, without competition, from the Undergraduate Thirst...

The next time you see the murderer he is staring into a cutlery shop window. There, framed in knives, he sees reflected the figure of a little girl behind...

Secondly, it is justly pointed out that Freshmen will be wise to play safe by applying in groups, so that they may be assured of the companionship of certain friends. Every effort should be made by the committee to put these groups intact into one or another House...
