Judging from the small number of men who have signed for the Summer Encampment, it is evident that its advantages are not appreciated. In the CRIMSON of June 4, a statement of the scheme was given which showed that, by the generosity of the State and certain individuals, it is possible to have a camp at Boxford, the regular camping grounds of the Second Corps of Cadets, for two weeks.

There is always a certain satisfaction in feeling that your team whether defeated or victorious has represented the whole strength of the University, and gone into its contests with each individual in condition to do his best. Moreover what has been accomplished this spring is to say the least more than was expected, so much had to be trusted...
