This will be the first election for 1918 this year, and the offices of the three marshals, treasurer, orator, odist, poet and ivy orator will be voted on. In order to extend the 1918 suffrage to all members of the class now in military service, the Nominating Committee has mailed ballots to all whose addresses are known; these will be counted and the final result of the election announced on February...

The College cannot change the clocks of Cambridge, but it can adjust its academic schedule to conform as nearly as may be possible with the hours of natural heat and sunlight...
...place for the Junior Class to hold a function which would be contrary to the entire purpose of the plan of economizing electric lights by the use of the natural light of the early morning. The stand taken in regard to the Junior Dance will probably influence the vote of the College next Tuesday in no small measure.
