...particularly emphasized the effect of a player's mental attitude upon the way he played. What the college feels, the player feels, and the results show in the game he plays. Princeton won in 1911 more on mental attitude than any- thing else. To make a team fight, the solid backing of the college is necessary. Statistics show that every time Yale or Harvard has won by a big score, the score has been reversed the next season...
...President Wilson has said, to substitute the side-shows for the main tent. We would not lose "Harvard University," which is the definitive reply to the taunt of "Harvard indifference"; but it must be recognized that too little reading is done by most men.

They leave the impression that their authors sat down and cried, "Lo, I must produce a poem," and then cudgelled their brains for a proper subject...
...their last chance to apply for invitations to the Junior Dance and also their last opportunity to hand in applications for rooms in the Senior Yard dormitories for next year. 1916 has shown itself to be a class so democratic in spirit that there is little doubt of the solid support it will give these two worthy traditions. It would be regrettable should anyone--through negligence--lose either of these two opportunities to mingle with his classmates...
