...Freshmen, however, have again merited a rebuke, for when 80 men, or roughly, 13 per cent. of the class, have contrived to get on probation, it is time they be called to account.

There is no discipline, because each member of a force owes his appointment to someone other than the leader. If a half-day's work is done for a whole day's pay, there is no one to complain...
...present Hemenway Gymnasium has been of late the subject of such criticism from various quarters on the ground of utter inadequateness that the CRIMSON has prepared the following article on the history and condition of gymnastic facilities at the University with the view of presenting the subject in its entirety...
