There has been an entire re-organization of the business department and a change in the basis of elections, and judging by the success this spring, these innovations have been beneficial. Provided a long play of sufficient merit can be obtained it is hoped to make the trip this fall more extensive than ever before, but in order to do this it will be necessary to secure a long play of considerable merit...
...find existing conditions entirely to his taste, nor from past experience does it seem probable that he will be at all backward in saying as much. Mr. Sunday should be given a fair hearing; he may have many valuable suggestions. His recent visit to Princeton was distinctly a success.

With its conclusion that woman is hard to understand there will be no general disagreement. Mr. Heffenger's thoughtful sonnet "Success" is simply but unpoetically expressed. One is less certain of Mr. Rogers' ideas in the long poem "Death"--a large subject--pent in a rather exacting rhyme scheme. If the author had been less vague and more self-disciplined, it might have been easier to share his vision. Mr. Leffingwell...
