...support the university team. In the seventh inning when the score is very close, the applause at an error of the visitors is almost as great as at a clever play by the home nine. Such cheering is decidedly unfair and unsportsmanlike. We can only hope that no instances of it will occur this spring...
...hope that the managing committee of the dining halls in appointing a representative to take over the work of management have gone a good way toward settling the difficulties of the present situation.

Coach rice is an experienced leader, and although he has been obliged to make numerous eleventh-hour shifts in the Columbia boat, he will probably send out a very powerful crew. The University eight was considerably set back by Captain Severance's resignation in February, but fortunately a good...
