...heretical as to venture the opinion that over-indulgence in confinement "with as fine a group of men as will be associated with the House as Tutors and with as comfortable and agreeable surroundings as the Houses would afford" may not be as healthy as it is agreeable. It would be well suited to prep schools or graduate schools or any other highly specialized institutions. It would indeed produce a highly specialized sort of life, like that in the English universities or the small colleges in America.

...only touchdown of the game. Notre Dame 7, Army 0. Brainy, hard running, hard kicking Carideo's punts were sometimes blocked but his generalship vindicated the judgment of critics who had already made him their choice for All-American quarterback. Once "All-American" meant the personal opinion of the late great Walter Camp. Now each U. S. newspaper has its Camp, its All-American team. Notre Dame's big schedule of games in many parts of the U.

...announcement in today's CRIMSON of a minimum board charge of $7.50 in the new Houses comes as a gesture of sympathy to the widespread opinion that the former charge was too high. A few men will benefit by the change, but the chief evil in the system has in no way been mitigated.

Since before many years the undergraduate at New Haven may face a similar decision the results of the room applications at Cambridge ought to be viewed with especial interest. Undergraduate opinion there has been consistently hostile to the House Plan, yet the University authorities have gone ahead with no appreciable alteration of their original plans. Now the undergraduate must either refuse to acquire an intimate knowledge of the coming Harvard or accept the usual inconveniences of living under experimental conditions.
