With each team defeated once and tied once, the two elevens seem to be nearly on a par. Andover and Exeter have been the only common opponents of both, and the relative strength of the two yearling outfits is shrouded in a cloud of 6's and 2's. Andover downed the Harvard 1930 men, 6 to 0, and lost to Yale 2 to 0, while Exeter, after tying the Blue 6 to 6, fell before Harvard...
Speaking as a graduate student in Harvard, it seems most inappropriate that any group of men in a university of this size and importance should attempt to clog in the least degree the machinery of good-will existing among the graduates of so many other schools of learning. It is true unfortunately that the opportunities for social intercourse between graduate students are much restricted by the unusually heavy work assigned them, but this fact is in itself a reason for making the few opportunities that exist as pleasant as possible.

His voice carried well, and caught the rhythm of Shaw's lines. He was the understanding gentleman and soldier. He knew the advantage of chocolate creams over...
...mediaeval Spain--"Pedro the King," by Miss A. Anthony Wyse of Cambridge, was the program of the following year. Coming as it did after the enormously popular "Makropoulos Secret", any play of conventional plot, or at least a plot which made no pretense o "modernistic" ideas, was bound to seem comparatively. But this tale of a tyrant whose cruelty won him immortality was anything but unexciting. Nevertheless it proved one of the less popular of Dramatic Club Productions...
