A. office is now situated, not only would the Union atmosphere be dry, but the pool could obtain unlimited sunlight. Though a final estimate is not ready, the architects say that the change would require little additional expense. The H. A.

But the article on "Minor Sports--and Sportsmanship," by a native Greek, "the strongest man at the University of Pennsylvania," is awkward in expression. Mr. Dorizas, though the strong man at Penn., is a weak one with the pen; he seems to have something worth saying, but naturally he is not yet a master of English, and his ideas would be more readable were they transcribed and assorted by an interviewer or correspondent...
