Many obstacles are to be met before this idea of class unity can be accomplished. First, and most important, is to secure the necessary funds; then, whether to erect new buildings or to utilize old ones; what location to select; how to assign the rooms so that friction will be avoided and natural associations be formed. Time and patience will be required for the working out of these problems; but we believe that under President Lowell's direction their solution will be reached, and that the present College generation will see the working out of his theories...

It explains, simply and clearly, the situations which had to be met this fall by the coaches at New Haven and at Cambridge, and the methods followed in building up the two teams.
