...they went Mr. Hoover's decisions were a praiseworthy echo of U. S. public opinion; but they did not change the fact that, if France does not recede from her demand, Britain will increase hers, the U. S. must increase theirs to maintain Anglo-U. S. "parity," and the net result would be to launch the London Conference on a program of increasing naval strengths all round...
...Stubbs, Harvard mentor, has repeatedly come out against the adoption of pro regulations. The fast pace made possible by forward passing would be a considerable drain on the stamina of the college skaters; even the seasoned and hardened professionals have found it necessary to use three forward lines to maintain the speedy clip. Of course the amateur twelve player rule would have to go by the boards. Shoving this clause into the discard would place the smaller college squads, despite the fact that they might have first class players, in a tough spot. Obviously that is highly undesirable. Some...
Inasmuch as yesterday's announcement of the proposed federation of the liberal political clubs of the university makes public the disinterest of the undergraduates in political discussion, and reveals the inability of the Liberal Club, as at present constituted, to maintain itself satisfactorily in the face of this lack of support, it seems but fair to call to the attention of those officers of the Liberal Club who go out of office this week, discouraged at their apparent failure, the significance of the Scott Nearing luncheon yesterday...

For the first week one stands an even chance of getting to the bottom without amusing the smokers lounging about the pillars by an elaborate balancing act in attempting to maintain his equilibrium. At the end of this period, the going becomes increasingly difficult, so much so that only the most intrepid can traverse the smoothly beveled ice. Finally the thaw comes; the uninitiated again splash joyously over their acoustomed route, hoping that before their Harvard days are over they shall have...
