Since statistics show that the average candidate for admission to Harvard College obtains almost exactly the necessary 26 points, it would seem that the requirements for entrance are well adapted to the curricula of the schools at which men prepare. It is true, however, that this average is a mean of two extremes, about which the individual cases tend to group themselves. Men are liable to enter either with points to spare or with conditions; and a subject for discussion lies in the fact that the latter class is composed almost wholly of students who come from public schools which...

According to present indications the forward line seems to be settled with Hornblower and Duncan in the centre positions and Leslie and Seamans on the ends, although Pierce and Pratt have been playing well on the second team.

Does it not seem extraordinary that the undergraduates should be expected to elect a Student Council with "direct jurisdiction over individual students" when the individual students in question have not been consulted as to whether or not they want such a body? This, however, is exactly what the scheme for a new Council proposes, inasmuch as the College is given no chance to consider or to ratify adequately the new plan. The CRIMSON believes that the formation of a new Council and its adoption is a matter important enough to justify discussion and a real ratification. The present scheme with...
