Practice for the crews yesterday afternoon consisted of only a short row for the first four University and two Freshman crews, because of ice in the river and the snow storm. Several shifts were made in crews B and C which resulted as follows: Chichester went to 2 on Crew C, Busk moving to stroke; Saltonstall moved to bow on B in place of Herrick, who went to C, and Lund was in at stroke...
...truly a notable occasion when Equal Suffrage is again to be presented in Harvard halls by a woman lecturer. Militancy, however, will not be in order today as it was two years ago when Mrs. Pankhurst created a storm centre in Brattle Hall. People went to hear Mrs. Pankhurst more from curosity than interest; those who go to hear Miss Todd tonight will reverse these motives.

Before the preliminaries of the 100-yard dash, the second event of the meet, could be completed, a driving rain and wind storm made running impossible for an hour.

Rice of Powder Point won both the 100 and 220-yard dashes, making the former through...
Sweeping generalizations, slap-dash impressions and random notions calmly labelled "facts," all delivered pell-mell in a kind of word-storm, seriously impair the value of the article "Wagner--After the Noise of Battle," by H.

It has, on the contrary, been observed again and again that the only singers whose voices have been seriously...
...shape until the Harvard-Yale game in 1914. The reason for the delay is a possible change of plan regarding the advisability of submerging the stadium. Although a very remarkable drainage plan has been submitted which would make the field dry within half an hour after a storm, its execution would require a huge amount of excavation, and would leave no space for locker rooms. The final decision regarding the matter has not yet been made...
