...University football squad consisted this year of some thirty players. Eighteen of these are now privileged to wear the "H." The remaining thirteen men, comprising the substitutes taken to New Haven, are not recognized by the awarding of any insignia. The second team, an inferior body of players, on the other hand, are awarded the "H 2nd." Is it not manifestly unfair that the substitutes are not awarded some token for their valuable services? Every man on the track team who is entered in the dual meet with Yale is given an "AHA." It seems to the writer that every...

Of this number, thirteen sections, or something over 7500 seats, were placed at the disposal of the Dartmouth Association to be sold to Dartmouth men at Hanover. This left only nine sections to be sold to Harvard men, both graduates and undergraduates, with the result that the supply was exhausted before the graduates were given...

...Kennard was put out of the game for unnecessary roughness, and the accompanying penalty gave Carlisle the ball on Harvard's 45-yard line.

Whereas under the present arrangement an initial charge is made of something between thirteen and fourteen cents, figured on the report of March 1, the charges last summer were nineteen cents a meal before any food was served. Apparently it is impossible to cut down the help and the running expenses in proportion as the numbers decrease since a certain number of assistants are required regardless of the number of persons served...
