...heavier journalistic ordnance than the daily musketry of the CRIMSON? I must look, it is clear, at the Advocate not as a semi-monthly spokesman of College views, but as a carrier of light waves--of verse, stories, and the occasional essay. If the old Advocate was a bit ponderous, the new Advocate--is it my years?--seems to me not quite heavy enough. But when I come to examine the component parts of this issue, there are really no serious faults to find--no faults, I am sure, of which the editors themselves are not perfectly well aware...
...Faculty of Arts and Sciences during the coming year, open to undergraduate and graduate competition, which list has been reprinted from the College Catalogue. They vary but little from one year to the next, but hidden away in a 700 page book in the midst of every other possible bit of academic information concerning the University, they are apt to be overlooked, and for that reason the CRIMSON is in the habit of publishing them early in the year in the hope that they may be noticed by some who otherwise might be ignorant of the possibilities at hand...
...divided into two classes: first, those who are restless until they have referred every experience, and every bit of knowledge, to certain first principles; and, next, those who take life more classically, not because they lack first principles, but because they are more interested in the sweep and variety, even in the exceptions and caprice, than in the rigid formulation of life. Mr. Berenson belongs to the former class, and it is wonderful that a mind so acutely intellectual as his should choose for its special province the Fine Arts--the domain, that is, where Beauty and not Knowledge...
...last two of which forced in two runs. In the fifth Roger's single, the second baseman's error, and Minot's timely hit scored another run; while Harvard's last run came in the seventh on Reilly's error, and when the right fielder dropped McLaughlin's long bit. Yale's last score, in the ninth, was caused by McLaughlin's misjudging of Reilly's flly, which allowed the latter to make third and come in on a fielder's choice. McKay ended the game by striking out Lilley...
...nobler qualities of the Jekyll side, desire to succeed; to master and to win are to be directed to the studies alone, while the baser Hyde characteristics, half-heartedness, hypocrisy of purpose and the famous Harvard indifference are to be exercised only on the sport. Isn't this a bit unreasonable? In a communication the other day by Mr. Derby we are led to believe that from those absences which occur at the end of a major sport season the Faculty naturally deduces that such sport to demand such method of recuperation in one of excess. Doubtless they...
