...requires only a certificate. The factor of inaccessibility has been largely obviated by the decision to accept Board examinations. Nevertheless, as long as examinations of any sort are required, Harvard will be at a distinct disadvantage throughout the West. The adoption of the New Plan examinations, though an excellent step so far as it goes, does not completely cope with the situation, because the mere existence of examinations whose requirements are couched in the formidable language of the Catalogue is enough to strike terror to the hearts of those who are not accustomed to them...

Taking advantage of this demand, many theatres are charging $3.00 for tickets for that performance and as the entire house is bought up by an agency the purchaser must pay $3.350 per seat--an extortionate figure. Even at this price, however, there are many...
...usual 19 events on the A. A. U. schedule will be held, those events not used in intercollegiate competition being the 440-yard hurdle, 5-mile run, throwing the javelin, hop, step and jump, discus throw, and 56-pound weight throw. Several noted athletes will take part in the eastern trials. In the half-mile there will be J. E. Meredith, of Pennsylvania and H. Baker, of the N. Y. A. C., who won that event last year and who has covered the distance in 1 minute, 55 seconds this year. Other star performers in the runs will be Kiviat...
