...again, there seems to be little reason why, considering the interest, the results already obtained should not have been announced. The CRIMSON certainly bears the Union no ill-will. On the other hand, we hope for it a most successful year; and yet we cannot refrain from this one word of criticism upon a worthy society...
Competing essays are not to exceed eight thousand words, must be signed by some other than the writer's name, and sent to the office of the League, No. 23 West Twenty-third street, New York City, on or before March 1, 1889, accompanied by the name and address of the writer, and by a certificate of standing signed by some officer of the college to which he belongs, in a separate sealed envelope (not to be opened until the successful essays have been determined), marked by a word or symbol corresponding with the signature of the essay.
