...section of the class, by concerted and harmonious action, can the result be satisfactory to the class and the College public generally. As the Crimson has heretofore remarked, "Class Day is not Society Day." If there be individuals who are disposed "to lobby" or otherwise advance the interests of certain men, or if there be men who entertain ambitious plans for their own advancement, we trust that they may be signally rebuked on the evening of the election. We believe, however, that nothing stands in the way of an enjoyable and successful Class Day for '82, and we hope...

...writer heads the present article with these words, taken from an able article in the Advocate of May 27, because they admirably suggest certain thoughts of his own, and certain comparisons not at all to the advantage of the English Department of Harvard College. He may be pardoned for repeating a sentence or two from a former article of his own in Vol. XV. of the Crimson : "If the Freshman year must consist of required studies, let Rhetoric be transferred from the Sophomore year, and let there be, in addition, some good elementary course in English Literature; give...
