...Watters last year; Chapman has been victorious in the quarter-mile races of Oxford-Cambridge meets in the past two years, and tonight makes his first appearance in the half; while Geilfuss won sixth place in the 1923 intercollegiate quarter. In the 1927 race, both teams contain strong ex-schoolboy runners, and should fight a hard battle...
...CRIMSON believes that the possibility of service to the University in the new plan has never before fully been realized. In helping to keep alumni in touch with events at the University and more particularly in giving to schoolboys an acquaintance with colleges in general and Harvard in particular, the CRIMSON feels that it will be performing a new and valuable function.

...charged it would be hard to spoil the effect. All one has to do is to be frightened at the right places. Nevertheless, Miriam Doyle is pleasing as the courageous and attractive young heiress; and Walter Regan, who has a fairly difficult part as the wavering, somewhat ridiculous schoolboy lover of Miss West, and the official humorist, is one of the outstanding players. As Cousin Sue, who feels "in duty bound" to tell everything she knows in a rather disagreeable fashion, Florence Huntington is so convincing that one hesitates to praise her; her part seems too natural to be acting...
