...table of athletic figures for last year, published in the adjoining column, shows numerous variations from the table of the preceding year, which is published for purposes of comparison. The first item, "Care of Buildings and Grounds," is considerably greater than in 1905-06, due to the fact that the cost of painting the Stadium has been transferred to this account. Expenses on the general account are also larger because of certain increases in salaries and of the maintenance of two extra hockey rinks. Increase in receipts may be attributed to the interest account and collection of outstanding bills. Permanent...
...poor critic that resents criticism." The communication published in another column this morning presents a point of view different from that already given by and through the CRIMSON. In taking the stand it did, the CRIMSON, realizing that a bad mistake had been made, blamed the track management for an error in judgment. We still believe that this error was made.

All these men are urged to make an earnest effort to aid the committee. 1909 UNION DANCE COMMITTEE...
...another column this morning the CRIMSON prints a communication that attempts to defend the Junior class for not rallying sooner in support of the Union dance, on the grounds that it is a Union and not a class affair. A few figures readily prove the lack of foundation for this assertion. On January 20 there were 404 Junior members of the Union, and the University Catalogue, which appears today, shows a total enrolment of 467 Juniors in Harvard College and 23 in the Scientific School. Eighty-two per cent of the third year students are members of the Union...
...will be so bold as to criticize the lack of interest in studies at Harvard after reading the communication from Mr. Lane which we print in another column? Many earnest individuals not content with monopolizing the air and books of Gore Hall for hours at a time must needs appropriate for their exclusive use the volumes most in demand. As long as they are actually using the books no one can severely censure them except for dullness; but when they attempt to found a private library by stealthy and underhand methods, it is time for all fairminded frequenters...
