...burst of righteous enthusiasm the University pledged some $50,000 to the Y. M. C. A. Red Triangle Fund. That was several months ago and the Fund still lacks $4,000 of the promised sum. There is only one thing that can be done and that is pay up immediately. At this time when rent and Bursar bills are stretching our credit to the limit, any extra payment is a difficult demand to make.

M. C. A. for the University's entire pledged...
...very easy matter for each man to mail his contribution to Phillips Brooks House and clear his conscience; let us not make it necessary to have a committee to make the collections. In behalf of the Harvard Y. M. C. A. Hut Fund, we appeal to these men, as a point of honor, to respond to their pledges promptly. CASS CANFIELD '19. CHARLES BLUM, JR., '18. ARNOLD HORWEEN...
