...event of a satisfactory vote from the classes, the corporation would look with favor upon the plan. The difficulty of the situation arises from the fact that the Union is now supported by voluntary membership, but is used to a greater or less extent by everyone. In short, its support is that of a private club, while it is put to public use. This, obviously, is a great injustice to those who bear the burden of support, and it has become necessary to change this state of affairs. It has been suggested, therefore, that the Union be made an undergraduate...
...short plays selected for production will probably be announced also, as the committee of three has nearly arrived at a decision. Twenty-eight plays were entered for judgment. Radcliffe graduates of the "47 Workshop" contributed 13 plays and graduates and undergraduates in the University each contributed six.

His racing experience and fast starting make him a valuable man for the important first position as he gets a lead over his opponent as a rule at the first corner, which he can maintain by his speed...
...easy stride, uses good judgment, and has a beautiful spurt at the finish. His work against Yale at the B. A. A. games was of high order. Donahue, due to his being unclassified last year, is as yet practically untried in Harvard running. He was on the University second short distance team which raced Wesleyan at the B. A. A. games...
