All honor to them for their fidelity to the intellectual ideal, their devotion to the best scholarship! With these stands a larger group, and in it there are the names of many Harvard men-Goodwin, Richards, James, Royce, Pickering. Harvard surely is at the head in America, but at the head of what?

The present quarters are entirely filled and any more gifts that may be received must be declined for lack of room or stored until larger accommodations can be secured.

It is worth while considering whether the whole system of athletics should not be changed, either to one completely intra-college, or, as suggested by Mr. R. A. Derby '05, in the "Outlook" for October 5, 1907, to one of fewer outside games and more intra-college competition...
