...feel assured that his students had already grasped the general facts which he was about to discuss, he could devote his time wholly to demonstrating the real significance of those facts; and thus there would be none of the duplication of work, which at present makes so many lectures seem unprofitable. This result could be more easily obtained if all prescribed reading were done and tested before, instead of after, the lectures covering the same ground. Until some such method is adopted, by which lecturers may be enabled to tell their students things of real value to them, the undergraduate...
...time they be called to account. This number is not only unusually large, but is particularly exasperating because it exposes an utter and deplorable lack of responsibility among the Freshmen. There is a duty which every undergraduate owes to his class, if not to his parents; but many seem to feel it not at all. This duty to the class bears doubly hard on athletes and those in charge of class affairs, but those men in 1913 seem to have been the last to feel it.

Sweetser '11 seem to be the most likely. Sweetser won the event in the Freshman meet two years ago, but did not run last year. The high hurdlers will probably be developed from these same four men. A. R. Dupont '12 of last year's Freshmen is also a likely man for this event...
