...weak one, but in the present instance this does not hold true. The men who have given their time and energy to athletics and who have represented the University to the best of their ability, be it on river or gridiron, diamond or rink, deserve recognition of some sort. This acknowledgement should be of a special kind, to exist only for the duration of the war, and to be superseded by the regular insignia when peace comes and the University resumes its natural course. Whether the change should be to decrease the size of the letter or modify...
...present number, Lampy offers its own compendium of Cantabrigian notables; a sort of Almanach de Gotha (or de Goats); a miniature Burke's Steerage of Cambridge.

The cost of each token is only about thirty cents. A coin of the same character was carried by Minnesota men in the Spanish War, and proved a token of association...
...almost all of them have vacant positions and are entirely willing to give men the jobs temporarily. It is to be noted, however, that but few of the places open to college men for the summer are of a clerical nature, the vast majority entailing labor of a heavier sort...
