Many of the rules laid down for the guidance of the undergraduates seem hard to understand at first, but if they are carefully considered, some good reason for their existence will usually be found. We must confess, however, that we are unable to discover any good foundation for the regulation in regard to advertising college dramatic productions. The managers of these plays are not allowed to advertise in the Boston papers, and can only bring their productions to the notice of the general public by placards which are restricted in size and color. Of course these offerings are primarily...
...first month of the new American plan seems to have been fairly successful. At present the membership has naturally fallen off slightly because of the mid-years, but before that there was a decided increase in numbers. The members seem to be satisfied with the new system and it will probably be continued indefinitely. It is a pity that this institution which could be made to fill a pleasant and important place in College life should be in such straits as in the past few months. And we sincerely trust that things have been put on a sound basis...
...seat with indifferent success, and the place will probably not be definitely settled for some weeks. The most recent arrangement of the men has been as follows: stroke, Brainard; 7, Goodrich; 6, Howe; 5, Baker; 4, Hunt; 3, Wodell: 2, Glenny; bow, Rice. All of these places seem likely to be permanent except that of stroke, which is uncertain. Of these only Captain Howe, Rice, and Wodell rowed in the university or four-oared boats last year...
Strange as it may seem, some men feel reticent about writing the real facts of their College lives on these blanks, laboring under some peculiar apprehension that their secrets will be divulged to their great damage. Of course this idea is absolutely unfounded. The Seniors may feel assured that no one except the secretary will read these class "lives," and they can depend on him to use proper discretion. Every member of the class should not only answer all the questions candidly, but should make serious suggestions for the possible improvement of conditions here by advocating changes in the present...
This is the last day on which applications for the dance will be received. There are 375 men in 1910 who are members of the Union and of that number only 77 have sent in their applications. It would seem hardly worth while to have the dance if only 77 men care enough about it to apply for invitations and it certainly would be a failure financially. The price of three dollars is not prohibitive--it has purposely been placed within every man's reach. The obvious conclusion is that the class does not want the dance or that...
