...discussion of the memorial to honor Harvard's war dead two issues arise-the ideal and the practical. They are separate and distinct and should remain so. The CRIMSON is thoroughly in sympathy with the sincerity of the committee which has proposed this church, now definitely announced for erection in the Yard. Concerning the practical issue it has objections. Those objections--that a new church is unnecessary, for the dual reason that Appleton Chapel in performing its spiritual function has come to be an essential part of the Yard environment, and also that it is capable of housing those...

...student council would be ideal which was small enough to be a working unit, yet large enough and so selected as not to include merely the most popular undergraduates but a good proportion of the most capable--the two are not always combined. Such a body is, of course, as impossible as Plato's Republic ruled by philosopher kings. And if it should exist by some miracle, there would still have to be discovered a really vital use for it. But the human student craves a voice in his micropolity, and the Williams experiment, after all, gives him as effective...
