...should like to congratulate the CRIMSON on its ability to kick up a row in the Boston and New York papers. First there was that dismal affair of "Johnny Harvard", for which the CRIMSON was largely responsible. Now comes this ridiculous Ku Klux scare, which is at present going the rounds of the country's newspapers. Personally I think there is no danger, but if there is, it would be far better not to publish it to the country at large.

...battle in Scotland for the Walker Cup told of but one American victory out of four matches. The necessity of winning at least five and a half of the remaining eight matches in order to keep the 'scutcheon clear and bring the cup once more to America formed a dismal prospect. Yet no more dismal than the prospects of Ouimet, when he faced his last five holes through the rain in the famous championship at Brookline years ago. He did then what was considered the impossible, and yesterday he and his team-mates repeated the process...
