...large quantities. These tickets are to them like the traditional elephant, and they are only too glad to dispose of them at half price to economical Seniors. Of this proceeding the Record disapproves. It does not object to the selling of tickets to Freshmen, but it declares that any man who goes to an entertainment for half-price is a "cheat"; and it is so violent in its indignation that it suggests the idea that the managers of the Junior Promenade and the editors of the Record are identical.

...Courant thinks that the necessity of bowing to college friends ought to be abolished. It says that a man whom you meet twenty times a day for a whole year knows that you know him; and it considers the convulsive nod and the sickly smile with which Yale men greet each other unnecessary and annoying...

Shall we not rise at once, then, like one man, and put down these evil influences? I should suggest that the first steps to be taken would be to assemble a congress of "Pocos" in the Yard immediately, divest ourselves...
...clubs not in any crew would be removed. If the single and double sculls were common property, one could be sure of finding a boat in, or, at the worst, of having to wait only a few minutes before one of the number would be returned. A Holworthy man could not then complain that he was paying fifteen dollars for one fourth the accommodations given to a Holyoke member; the trouble of four different organizations would be avoided, and with it the inevitable necessity of continual changes in the limits, if the clubs are to be fairly equal in size...
