...present it is estimated that ten thousand, two hundred and fifty Cambridge men have come forward to serve their country. Already nearly one in seven is numbered among the killed, the wounded, or the prisoners. The most brilliant gifts intellectual, administrative and physical, have been offered freely and without complaint upon the altar of our country. The list of those who have won distinction is enough to fill our hearts with thankfulness that Cambridge has produced such sons, and nearly every one of us have friends whose unrecorded heroism would swell the list, were it possible that all could...

The action of the 1916 Committee, however, in its decision to follow the tradition of using the Union for this occasion is altogether wise and commendable.
