Princeton has seen far and deep in the conception of a new military curriculum which the college has now announced it will offer. In a sense of the word, I means nothing less than the creation of a second West Point, with certain additional advantages of access to the treasures of cultural learning which are at Princeton. At a time when no man can foresee either the full extent of the military demand which the present war will make upon the nation before it is done or the nature of the new problems which will come after it, this effort...
...order from the War Department printed elsewhere in today's CRIMSON may come as a disappointment not only to the former "Quota A," but also to many others interested in the University Corps. Although it seemed for a time as though Army officials had seen fit to recognize the comprehensive two years' work of the Harvard Corps as equivalent to the four years' course prescribed for R. O. T.

Presently a flag came floating along in full view above the throng. It seemed a living presence--a radiant embodiment visualizing the impelling cause of the unseen array. Men and boys bared their...
...first time since 1916, the University crew and baseball team will engage in intercollegiate contests today. The race at Princeton and the game here mark the resumption of formal athletics after the lapse of over a year in which we have seen the abolition of all sports followed by their slow and uncertain revival under the guise of informalism to their present basis. This revised formal basis eliminates all the objectionable qualities of unnecessary, expense and excessive advertising which formerly brought college athletics into disrepute. Its success or failure rests with the student body...
