Upon the second ground of objection, the complainant tried to show that the applicants, as students deriving their support wholly or in part from their parents, were not domiciled in Cambridge. The third ground of objection was that the absence from Cambridge during the summer vacation prevented the applicants from establishing the necessary residence. It is with reference to the last two points that the case is of interest to Harvard students. In each of the cases in which registration was granted, the applicant presented evidence to show that he was wholly or in part self-supporting, and that...
...enough to warrant a good cheering section at Princeton, and thus far the response is discouraging. The importance of a cheering section need not be emphasized. In 1911, the football team played in Princeton, and the defeat is attributed to the fact that there was no Harvard undergraduate support.

The number is creditable and the work such as we know it, has, we hope, been of some aid and support, along the best lines of endeavor. The effort is certainly praiseworthy. But before closing let me say that there is much yet to be done, that the opportunity for helping is limitless, and that, to those who have gone over, the reward has been found immeasurable...
